Current situation with profitability per TB is 0.18-0.81 $/TB

Then you may shutdown the empty nodes or wait.
If that was an unused space on the already online hardware, I wouldn’t care, I’m paying for it to be running anyway for my usage.

Bro!
What are the big farmers? It won’t matter to them, there are economies of scale and costs are minimal.
You looked at three screenshots above - they are talking about a single node in Wisconsin. It looks like I’ll delete it completely.

Exactely. :wink: (20 farmers wannabes)

i know you have good command over your english.I am not here to explain like kids
(like a for apple, b for ball).I am into crypto for last 8 years, running several miners and several nodes. There is hardly any talk about storj node in youtube. i dont trust any youtuber and even what any company say about its own product. i read their docs and talk to customers(who are running the nodes) and check the forum or discord. i have 96tb of spare harddrive. RUNNIING THREE NODES…TWO ON MY OWN STATIC IP AND THE LAST ONE ON VPN. Its running since last four and half month, i will run this node for more 3mnts. Till now nodes storage is not upto my expectation and calculation. I dont run things on HOPE. Even i dont come too much on social media to waste my time.SO KEEP YOUR YOUTUBER ,YOUR SNO ,YOUR EGRESS ,YOUR ENGLISH AND YOUR ENCODER inside your head.There is no need to teach english to anybody.

If you thought you were likely to have significant financial returns after three months then you haven’t done your research adequately.
There are plenty of entries in this forum stating that you have to be in this for the long run.

The people making a significant income have been at it for 4 or 5 years.

I am sorry you are feeling aggrieved but you only have yourself to blame for your lack of due diligence before embarking on this project.

This project isn’t like Chia where the faster you fill your drives, the faster money you’ll make. It all depends on actual customers uploading data to the network. Can’t hold people at gun point and force them to upload stuff.

I had a couple of friends that asked me if they should start this project. My response was “can you deal with 9 months of no payouts?”. Nodes don’t start making anything significant until they are at least 1 year old. Asking why Bentley hasn’t delivered your Phantom after 5 months of running a node, is chasing a get rich quick scheme. This isn’t one. It takes dedication and time.

Don’t listen to them. They are all rookies, runing patato nodes.
The few of us, veterans of crypto mining and riders of Dodge coin waves, are making a waiting list for the soon-to-be-delivered dream car, here:

Put your name on the list and what you want.
Soon they all be crying for tips. :face_with_raised_eyebrow::shushing_face::saluting_face:

4 month have been passed…for the last two and half month my storage remain where it was,no storage inclement. out of my three nodes (each with 13tb) with different static ip filled only 2.5 tb .
My issue is not earning but for the last 2 and half month there was no increase in storage. Only garbage collection. That is only issue i have. IN THIS FORUM THERE ARE MANY RABBITS WHO JUMP IN BETWEEN WITHOUT KNOWING ANYTHING.

As I said, 4 months is nothing. It doesn’t matter how much storage you have. It takes time to fill the drives. Do we want them to fill faster? Of course. Can we do anything to fill them faster? No.

Yea and for some reason they use capslock.

I kindly request you stop the name calling. Let’s focus on constructive criticism instead. Also, we can all read your points just fine without capslock. And the upside of avoiding those things is that it will make people respond to the content of your messages instead of the form. Thanks.
