I noticed one of my responses in an old topic being linked to quite frequently listing this info. I figured it might be a good idea to post it in an easier to find place where I can also keep it up to date.

# Community satellites program (unpaid for now)

_Listed on: [https://www.storj.io/unpaid-community-satellites](https://www.storj.io/unpaid-community-satellites)  
These satellites are part of the Storj Community Satellite Pilot Program and won’t be paid for now. This program is used to test the rollout of community satellite functionality. Payout status might change in the future. Some satellites might offer other features like node monitoring and may not necessarily store data. Node software isn’t yet optimized to deal with different payout schemes for different satellites. Displayed information on node dashboards may be incorrect or incoherent when mixed with paid satellites.

# Other community satellites (might be paid, see description)

_Not (yet) listed on:[https://www.storj.io/unpaid-community-satellites](https://www.storj.io/unpaid-community-satellites)  
Anyone can start a community satellite and determine whether they pay operators or not and how they pay operators. Some satellites might offer other features like node monitoring and may not necessarily store data. Use caution when adding untrusted satellites to production nodes. Node software isn’t yet optimized to deal with different payout schemes for different satellites. Displayed information on node dashboards may be incorrect or incoherent when mixed with paid satellites or combining different payout schemes._

# Legend

**Satellite Address:** Address where the satellite is (or was) hosted  
**Satellite ID:** ID that shows up in the logs and on the dashboard to point to this satellite  
**Sat.ID hex:** Hex representation of the satellite ID. Useful when querying the node databases in sqlite using the hex() function. (Mostly selfish as I use this for the earnings calculator)  
**Blobs Folder:** Folder inside blobs or trash where this satellites customer data is stored. Useful to find specific pieces that may trigger errors in logs for example. Or removing data for exited/disqualified satellites (please use caution!).
