We appreciate everyone providing this detailed feedback and suggestions on what they’d like to see instead of the current proposal. Everyone taking the time out of their day to provide insights into what they feel is fair and what isn’t is useful and is being discussed internally at Storj Labs.
I have seen a lot of proposals to raise prices. Right now, this is very unlikely. The customers would leave the platform. Once you remove the test data, and the customers leave, there is no data for SNO’s.
There may be other ways to cut costs, or to create packages that sell at a different price point. I know, for instance, that many services charge for support contracts when big companies want a level of support that is 24/7 365. This kind of an add-on would potentially generate additional revenue for Storj and could help offset earnings to SNO’s. Creatively, there may be other value added services that could be offered.
But a blanket price increase, not likely.
