In July my wallet in L1 network received less than the expected $160 according to the data from the node, and $149 came at the exchange rate at the TIME OF RECEIPT because storj sent a slow transaction. According to the coin price chart, it can be seen that the payout rate is not the actual ~ $0.75, but the peak ~ $0.8.
I did not write about this until the next payments in the hope of correcting the error and compensation, but nothing was credited to me in the new payment for their mistake. The most disgusting thing here is that when storj paid more than it should, there were no payments for the next month.
This is not the transaction price. This is the difference in the exchange rate at the time when the payment was initiated and the date of actual receipt. During this time, the exchange rate has changed a lot not in favor of the recipient.
Storj teeam cant control the exchange course. for example, I gom money yesterday, and exchanged it in the morning, and got something about 10+ $ more than expected. So it is up to you when you exchange your money. Also i opted to ZK syng and got additional 10% then will cover some transaction fees and small disbalance. Stoj teeam dont have crystal ball to know, will exchange rate will be higher or lower.
