Requests served in parallel from multiple nodes — faster than single-node. GET latency comparable to B2/Wasabi (200-500ms).
Data split across 80 nodes, reconstructed from 29. Loss of up to 51 nodes — ok. Technically more reliable than a single provider.
Storj accepts USD (card). STORJ token is used internally to pay storage operators. End users do not touch crypto.
