    There is discount pricing over 100 TB. Its a tech demo so Tadigrade.io sponsors it. Pretty powerful demo on easily storing large amounts of data especially when Github goes down.

    CEO of Storj here. You can sign up to use Storj and get the tools working to upload/download your files in 60 seconds. Last time I tried to use S3 it was 12 steps, and a phone call…

    While we are excited we got the grant I kinda agree. Our stuff like the whitepaper ( https://storj.io/storj.pdf ) or KFS ( http://blog.storj.io/post/150825969108/introducing-kfs-a-…

    27-30sec show the upload process and security, 45-51 sec down the download process and speed. The middle of the video describes the encryption process. I disagree that its devoid o…

    So Metadisk is out, and DriveMiner is on its way. As far as technical contributions, going to have to wait until I finish up the revised whitepaper. We were focused on writing the …
