[ANN] Storj - Decentralized Storage

[notsoshifty]

The timer on the website was for the wrong timezone, so we had to readjust it. It ends at 23:59 EST tonight which it always has been. We apologize for the confusion.

Is it correct now?

The website says "END: ABOUT AN HOUR FROM NOW" but http://www.timeanddate.com/ says it is currently "Monday, 18 August 2014, 21:46:58 EST", that should be more than two hours?

The clock says ~30 minutes left on storj.io/crowdsale.html

It is accurate.

I don't know, I'm not on the team. I read on reddit they are in talks with 3 exchanges, but no other info.

It is accurate.

EDT and EST are not the same, are they?

Due to end at midnight EST, not EDT.

It's not yet midnight EST, is it?

Allright very interested in this. Depending on how much I would make (could someone tell me the approximate rates for each TB), I would buy a HDD farm.

Well, I don't know why so many people don't understand this. The website says "The crowdsale ends at 11:59 EST". It doesn't say it ends at 11:59 EDT, nor does it say it ends at midnight "New York Time". Hardly relevant now (except to the two transactions that were submitted in the last 60 minutes). But still, you guys should read up on timezones sometime...

Can anyone tell me what the pay is for storage?

I didn't get my invite yet, is the node running service up yet? Could I run a node now if I got an invite?

If I could set up a hard drive or solid state drive farm, that would be awesome, just like mining, except you actually make money. You could probably ROI pretty quickly, as the article said you could make 150$ a month

Yeah, this would be great. You think external hard drives would work?

No idea, but why would you want to? They are much more expensive and dont fit on server racks or computer cases.
One loophole I may have found, uhh if you are using your computer as a storage like dropbox, can't you just access their files? I'm guessing (and hoping) that this is encrypted.

I have a few unused external hard drives that's why. And what were you thinking for using? Also what if your computer is off? I guess you have to stay online just like you would with gpu mining
