so I'm guessing that syncthing (with you running your own repeater/server node), doesn't meet your requirement. why not?

(for me it's the lack of one way sync, ignoring deletes, and no partial directory sync)

"Once your Node is verified after a vetting period, you’ll start being compensated for the storage and bandwidth you provide. Every month you meet the requirements, you’ll be paid in STORJ Token."

I'd rather be paid in money

Money definitely goes up, it also goes down. What's important is what you compare it to. The USD has been going down for a long time, compared to EUR for example.
