This morning when I woke up and opened up my COINBASE app my current platform of choice as a crypto newbie and see a curious token I was wrestling with purchasing a small amount of the night before has jump upwards from $1.60 to $3.57 at the time of my writing this an astonishing +115.90%. Obviously I was hit with instant regret if only I had bought it! Such is life so instead I decided to do some sleuthing and see what they're all about.
The first thing I did was double up by doing a quick search using BRAVE browser and using my new favorite decentralized engine PRESEARCH in an attempt to chip away at the forboding endeavour all in its own that is the eligible token withdrawal threshold. (But thats another article... see Moar PRE for Free) I quickly learned a few thing's from their website getting a general quick overview of what it is they do, briefly shared below.
Storj Network consists of a global network of nodes that allow thousands of operators and developers to experience faster, safer, and more affordable object storage. Meaning that any unused disk space you might have as long as you have a stable internet you essentially become part of a much larger cloud to be used by Tardigrade.io users.
Hosting a node rewards operators for their unused storage and bandwidth, making it possible for Tardigrade.io customers to utilize it for decentralized storage. Allowing you to put your unused space to work and earn.
Should you choose to store data instead Tarigrade promises 100% security at more affordability and reliability as the worlds first S3-compatible decentralized cloud solution.
Now I know what your thinking.."this guys seems to know what he's talking about" ..gotchya... the truth is I still don't know a 2nd layer security from a satoshi, but that won't stop me from continuing to learn all there is about cryptocurrencies. I may find myself scouring wiki trying to understand a simple term, diving down the rabbit hole that is the world of crypto for what should have been 3-5 min of reading for a more accomplished crypto warrior. The ocean that is crypto is vast and full of riches to be had for those willing to take a chance, but it would be foolish to dive in without first properly educating yourself. Having said that I am in no way an expert in finances or cryptocurrencies in any way I barely have a vague grasp on my day to day life just ask my son who I momentarily misplaced yesterday while I was petting sting rays with his siblings...relax it was like 2-10 min tops.
