That term might have legal implications though. I think SNO works just fine.

Truly is a gamble.

Yeah, I just think that is completely separate from the Storj network and service itself. You get fair compensation and then you have the choice to keep that as tokens or sell them. The compensation at the time you receive it is perfectly fair though. So cash out or not… it’s up to you.
