Some cool company has storage problem, maybe STORJ can step in and help somehow:
"Myrient, a major video game preservation archive hosting over 390 terabytes of organized ROMs, ISOs, and collections, is shutting down on March 31, 2026.
They are shutting down due to AI. Monthly expenses exceed $6,000 out-of-pocket to cover servers, bandwidth, and storage."
How Storj can help if this company is short of money?
You will never know, if your sales team don’t contact them….
| Tier | $/TB-mo | Storage, TB-mo | Egress, TB | Total, $/mo | Egress overusage, $/GB |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Global Collaboration | $15 | 390 TB | 390 TB | $5,850 | $0.02 |
| Regional Flow (US-only) | $10 | 390 TB | 390 TB | $3,900 | $0.01 |
However, every additional GB of egress above 390TB will cost $0.02/$0.01 per GB.
I shared this topic with the team, but if that company doesn’t have money, we likely can do nothing.
I reached out. Will see if there is anything we can do.
Well depending on how many enthusiasts are there, they could run their own satellite and pay less or even nothing for storage and bandwidth if enough people would support that project in this way.
Storj could run the satellite for them and charge only a fair amount.
Sounds like there is a larger community depending on such a project. Maybe it would be even good PR for Storj if they help to make it survive.
