How much I could expect with 300Tb storage space?
Do I need fast upload link?


We can't really make any precise estimate on rewards until we actually enable them.
Test Group B will be able to provide stats and insight that should give everyone a better idea about rewards.

It is pretty hard to predict what will happen to the price of the coin (SJCX) after launch. We all tend to price the GB/year plans, it has been compared to Dropbox costs, Amazon costs, and so on. The truth is, there is a market out there, and price is driven, as always, by supply and demand. However, the implementation details are very important, too. For a solution with a nice GUI, that is easy to use, people will be willing to pay a decent price. If it is going to be hard for them to figure out how it all works.. then not so much.

I feel that Dropbox is popular not only because it fills a need (for online storage), but also because it is also easy to use, and it looks good.

Totally. Dropbox has a dead-simple interface. It just works, and sharing files/folders are so easy. If the public can be taught why p2p storage is more secure, and Storj has a clean interface, it'll fly!

you will be able to run a software on your machine to share your free harddrive space when the development passes the current beta phase. therefore you will earn Storjcoins.

Is it possible to mine this coin?

You can farm instead mine this coin!

You can lend your storage and make money off it. That's better than mining I think. Less impact on environment and electricity.


how?

No, you can't mine it. It is a Counterparty asset, and all SJCX have been generated and locked already. Some of the SJCX have been distributed in the crowdsale, you can buy them on exchanges (poloniex for example), and when the project launches, those who share their spare storage ("farmers") will be rewarded with SJCX. And if you need some storage in the cloud, you'll have to get some SJCX to pay for it.

Storj can be an excellent example when explaining blockchain technology's value to people who are not into crypto currency yet.  Because it can be compared with dropbox and etc. which many people are using now.  It would be easier for them to understand and realized the power of blockchain technology.

definitely this. when storj goes live, blockchain tech is going to become much more apparent, when people realize the benefit or secure decentralized storage.

I think that's one of the issues that I see. Fundamentally, it's a great use for crypto and good use for a blockchain too. That being said, it's based on a commodity that's not rare, so I don't think anyone will be able to retire on SJCX. I was in the crowdsale, but not at the 10k mark... I'm still on the fence as to whether I want to join in or not. Maybe when Round B kicks in.

 I think the price drop for btc is temporary due to holiday spending, watch when the income tax money starts to roll in, it will be a buying frenzy, which will take SJCX price to mars... don't worry just buy... #Storj a coin with a purpose... not 2 many are doing what there doing lets see how many follow suit... Cool

SELL ORDERS Total: 569163.51045747 SJCX          BUY ORDERSTotal: 51.75784676 BTC

Last time I post a price analysis said there were 1.2 million SJCX on the sell orderbook, but now is only 560k, it means much less sell press.

More people know SJCX has a great potential on the online storage market and prefer hoard and hold the precious coins Grin, SJCX is ready to pump to da cloud! Grin  #bethecloud

I hope you realize that if the Bitcoin price goes up then sjcx/btc goes down, since worlds' storage market is being valued by the dollar.. so it's basically speculations right now..

I think security and cost are the key factors for small companies or startup to consider Storj a better alternative than anything else on the market right now.  So Storj should pay more attention to target this market.

For general users, free space on dropbox, google drive, one drive and etc. are probably more than enough.  For big companies, they generally use their own SAN or etc, and big corporate are slower to change their plan or adopt this new technology, even it is much better technology.

It's a security concern I believe. I used to work in a company and used SAN but I also used websites that offered cloud storage so my data would be saved in more places.

Storj is still going up, 2 days ago the total sell orders are 1.22 million SJCX, now is only 1.06 million SJCX. Most of 160k SJCX were active bought, it shows the strong buy will in the market. Yesterday big buy orders were filled, whales are full now, huge pump will happen in early 2015 Grin

I have a feeling that a lot of speculators will be let down after hoarding lots of Storj. After Test Group C, people who held Storj will be ready to take some profits and flood the market with cheap coins. This will actually benefit the second wave of early adopters as cheap coins roll in to write out early contracts for real users. But - I wouldn't gamble on the rate of SJCX climbing much higher until the product has been trialed by fire.

NXT IPO price is less than 10 sat, but it hit 15k sat, now is still 5k sat.

In 2009, BTC initial price is less than 0.01 USD, but now is 300 USD, highest 1200 USD.

Investing in crypto coins is interesting, if you dare not to buy and afraid cheap ICO/IPO price, you won't get the profits, you will look at them to da mars and regret.

Yes, I think if you invest in any coin for long term. You can easily get benefit out of it. There is no point in playing day trading games because real project takes time. Storj has huge potential and it offers something that is widely used worldwide.

Indeed, it's rare to see a coin that provides something useful.
