Concerns and Indefinite Strike Regarding Operator Payments

but @BrightSilence, the time to take action in well needed changes was months ago, and STORJ inc. just showed, they don’t want to do necessary changes to the model, and now they have results. They didn’t want to do whats need to be done, in order to avoid situation like this.

Maybe people were silent, because many others already spoke the stand!?
(I read all the 1300+ posts, and there were enough said.)
Now, look what Alexey just replied to a great comment in main thread.

“Not competitive” - see? Told You, in spirit of “can’t be done”
No wonder people don’t want to post more, just to be dismissed like that.

How about $2.25/TB x 2.75 (red-solomon) = $6.19/TB storage,
well backblaze got it for 6 i get it.
But instead of maybe exercise the idea, and think it out better, it’s just dismissed with ease!

Maybe $2 x 2.75 = $5,5/TB will do? STORJ could earn $0,5 on top of that, or who said STORJ should earn off of TB space, if it’s marginal, even now, only 23 552TB stored,
that would be +$11,776.00 a month.
Still better than around -$3061 currently (around -$0.13 on very TB lose).

i don’t know, maybe the Red-Solomon algorithm could be trimmed to 2.50 or 2.25?
Then what,
$2/TB storage x 2.5 Red-solomon = $5
$2/TB storage x 2.25 Red-solomon = $4,5
$2/TB storage x 2.00 Red-solomon = $4

leaves a healthy margin for STORJ inc. profit, to match competition at $6.TB storage.
And at the same time means a WORLD to SNOs.
Simply that for now, and the whole topic is solved!

Can You see this?!
No unnecessary emotions, no unnecessary stress and conflicts!

Or 2nd amendment to the announcement, showing no signs of any understanding,
proudly showing how they spent ~100k$ on a Nodes service, last month, and simultaneously
10 times as much for some shady unknown “others” expenses.
(Q3 shows 14 mil tokens for that, and only 1,4 mil for SNOs)
yet they are THREATENING disqualification the possible strike attendants.
Great communication skills indeed!
They don’t get anything seems to.
A group of people threatened a 8PB strike, that’s ~34% of the current network!
And they reply like nothing happens?

You have many wise points, but i’ am not surprised things come that far
i only hope that it will not enrage them,
or otherwise the network may “enjoy” that strike …
