Storj is a distributed cloud storage platform that employs blockchain technology. [1] and encryption to secure user data. Founded in 2014, Storj represents a notable paradigm shift in how data is stored, offering an alternative to traditional, centralized cloud storage providers.
Initially introduced via a white paper in December 2014, Storj proposed the vision of a distributed and community-driven cloud storage platform, connecting users needing storage space with those with hard drive capacity to offer. The platform launched its operations towards the end of 2018 with an updated model described in a second white paper released two years after the first.
Shawn Wilkinson, a software developer from Atlanta interested in using blockchain technology to create a distributed cloud storage network, conceived the concept of Storj. Together with co-founder John Quinn, they laid the groundwork for Storj through an initial white paper and established Storj Labs Inc. in May 2015 [2].
Ben Golub now steers the company as the CEO, Wilkinson contributes as the chief strategy officer (CSO), and Quinn enriches the venture as the chief revenue officer (CRO) and board member.
Storj allows users to rent out unused hard drive space [3], contributing to a distributed and collaborative digital storage network. This model aims to harness the excess storage capacities globally, optimizing for both security and efficiency. The platform also integrates robust encryption to protect data, ensuring privacy and resistance to censorship [4]
Storj Labs, the company behind Storj, has reached significant milestones since its inception:
Storj prioritizes security within its service offering:
With an emphasis on reducing its carbon footprint, Storj's model is geared to be more sustainable than traditional data storage:
Storj has formed key partnerships to expand its reach:
Storj's platform is built around the democratization of cloud storage, offering distinctive features:
Storj began with an initial minting of around 500 million Storj tokens on the Ethereum blockchain. Following a token burn and the establishment of a token reserve, just under 425 million tokens are now in circulation. The token economics are intertwined with the platform's function, rewarding nodes for hosting and maintaining data integrity.
