Storj is private by design and secure by default, delivering unparalleled data protection and privacy vs. centralized cloud object storage alternatives. Developers can trust in innovative decentralization technology to take ownership of their data and build with confidence. For more info visit https://www.storj.io.
I’m considering setting up a Storj node, but I’m wondering if it’s still worth it in 2026. For those who are currently running a node, how has your experience been so far? Is the income still decent compared to the storage, bandwidth, electricity, and hardware costs? submitted by /u/cursorhive [link] [comments]
3 months ago I decided to dedicate a couple tb to a node because I had the space, but I found out recently that Storj filed for bankruptcy. I want to commit anyway since I'll only be out half a dollar right now, but without any real news coming out of our Storj I dont know if its really worth the commitment. submitted by /u/Blarghargin123 [link] [comments]
I’m upgrading my home server to a 24-bay 4U case and have some extra drives sitting unused. I’m thinking of utilizing them to make a small amount of money. I can either use 3 × 4 TB drives or 2 × 6 TB drives . Which setup would you recommend, and how should I configure them? From what I understand, 3 separate nodes may be better than 2, but I’m not sure why. How does this affect Storj payouts?…
I deleted all data in my bucket and unbeknownst to me it was all recovered without my intervention or consent - and I received yet another bill. I'm not going to fight over $5 but it's pretty shady to restore my data and bill me for it. Maybe I should have completely deleted my account back then but I certainly did today. submitted by /u/DellR610 [link] [comments]
So I'm running a few nodes and all of them seems to have this same issue. Afaik everything is fine on my side, everything is up and running and this node has 993 hours of uptime. submitted by /u/Matti_Meikalainen [link] [comments]
About a month ago, the minimum price increased to $50. So I decided to switch to Backblaze. There are some options on the web dashboard. So I choosed to NOT continue to use StorJ after July 1st. I moved to Backblaze and forgot about StorJ. However, today (15 July) I received an email informing me that the minimum fee has been rolled back to $5, effective from 1 July. They didn't close my account…
Anybody else hit with Storj containers crashing because of an update to v1.155.8? When checking the logs I see: https://github.com/storj/storj/releases/download/v1.155.8/storagenode-updater_linux_amd64.zip is "Not Found" -EDIT More people are having issues: https://github.com/storj/storj/issues/7780 -EDIT2 It seems to be fixed! submitted by /u/Sneeuwvlok [link] [comments]
Look, I get it: you're a business and your job is to make money. But you're pissing off smaller users who just want to store some paltry 100-500 GB to the cloud. You effectively "bury" the fact that users can bypass the $5 (now $50) monthly fee if you buy in STORJ token, but there's a lot of misinformation out there and people assume you need to set up a node in order to benefit from this process.…
Changing from $5 to $50: Is there a minimum usage fee? Yes. Effective July 1st, 2026, the minimum monthly fee for Storj Object Storage accounts increases from $5 to $50. The minimum fee is not a usage credit. It is a floor on your monthly invoice. If your usage in a given month is less than $50, you are charged $50. submitted by /u/MemnochJones [link] [comments]
Like title, not asking about price, just want to know what you guys thinking about future of storj Is there already any feedback from storj team related to this ? https://www.binance.com/en/support/announcement/detail/ca0f3a3ff83243b79102b4561c8ccdc2?utm_source=new_share&ref=CPA_00L8N20IAC submitted by /u/Illustrious-Sir7555 [link] [comments]
Hi everyone, I'm trying to set up two Storj nodes but both are stuck offline and I can't get authorization tokens to complete the setup. **Setup details:** - Windows 11 - Two nodes with separate identities - Node 1: Port 28967, 2.5TB HDD - Node 2: Port 28968, 2.5TB HDD - Both running as Windows services via NSSM - Port forwarding configured correctly (both ports verified open) - IPv6 disabled in…
I noticed the new UI change to the object storage browser and, while I appreciate that it pages 500 objects at a time instead of being limited to 100, they took away both the search bar AND the ability to sort by date/filename. submitted by /u/biohoo35 [link] [comments]
I would like to run Storj on my VPS. I tend to block all outbound and inbound connections and configure them on an as-needed basis. I understand Storj needs 28967 [tcp and udp] and 40002 [tcp] for dashboard. I have allowed both these ports in both directions. The issue I am having is: If I do not allow ALL outbound connections I cannot start STORJ successfully. What are all the ports which are…
The Question is pretty much in the title but again: 1. HDD price is up and demand. 2. SDD's are way higher due to demand. 3. I personally don't see any increased demand on Storj which is weird for me. Should this price hike affect us positively by more people using the service? submitted by /u/Pie_Dealer_co [link] [comments]
AVG disk space Dropped from 1.6TB to 0.2TB , on the right side it still says 1.58TB, I can also see I have 1Tb in trash, did that cause it? Any idea what is can cause this? submitted by /u/Andrejfsantos [link] [comments]
Does the node software have any space requirements like a large database? (Not the storage drive itself). Trying to figure out how big of boot/system drive NVME to buy. submitted by /u/Odd_Potential9225 [link] [comments]
Hello. Are there any previous posts or other resources to calm my nerves about port forwarding security risks? i.e. why is it not as much of a risk as the Internet says it is. I have looked but not found. Thank you in advance. submitted by /u/Odd_Potential9225 [link] [comments]
I currently have two nodes running already (one public IP). My friend got a node as well (another public IP), but doesn't have the ability anymore to leave it running. Can I move his node to my server? I do have plenty of bandwidth and storage to do so, but I am not sure if this is allowed? submitted by /u/Last-Rope8071 [link] [comments]
- Version: v1.141.2 - Runtime: 264 hours (11 days) - US1: 108/100 audits ✅ - EU1: 33/100 audits - AP1: 5/100 audits - Salt Lake: 0/100 audits Questions: 1. Is it normal to have 0 audits on Salt Lake? 2. Do I need to wait for all satellites to reach 100 audits to be "VETTED"? 3. How long until fully vetted?

Does anyone have a Grafana dashboard that they enjoy using with Storj that works with multiple nodes? I currently have all my nodes feeding debug data to Prometheus. I just need a dashboard that can aggregate all the data and present it well in Grafana. I know there is a multi node dashboard, but the information on it is extremely scarce (all I see is forum posts about how the multi node dashboard…
