Wallet Storj: STORJ token joins HolyTransaction

As of today, you can instantly purchase Storj on HolyTransaction, transfer them to any HolyTransaction’s customer for free, and do crypto-to-crypto swaps between your Wallet Storj and more than other 30 cryptocurrencies.

The Storj project provides for a decentralized cloud storage facility and is originally pronounced as “storage“.

Storj’s main aim is to rent a space on the secondary storage devices of the members of its network and pay them in cryptocurrency, for their service they provide. Therefore, Storj’s native cryptocurrency token is STORJ, which can be stored on HolyTransaction now.

“The main difference between Storj and other decentralized cloud storage platforms is that Storj only uses blockchain to manage payments and not to store data. This is due to the high cost and slow speeds found in blockchains. For example, even the fastest blockchains process data/payments in seconds. Meanwhile, traditional cloud storage solutions, like Amazon S3, can store files in milliseconds – many orders of magnitude faster than even the fastest blockchains.”

Shawn Wilkinson (Founder of Storj)

The Storj platform offers online storage similar to Dropbox or Google Drive, but does so over a distributed network. Renting out unused extra space on our hard drives is referred to as, Farming, for instance. The process as simple as downloading a client from the network, choosing the amount of space to be rented, and a wallet address to store the incentives received in the form of cryptocurrency.

All HolyTransaction customers can create a new address for STORJ and use the simple HolyTransaction Web Wallet to send and receive transactions or to instantly convert them to any other cryptocurrency.

Just like with Bitcoin, you can:

  • Send STORJ to any address, even to addresses of other cryptocurrencies with instant conversion on the fly;
  • Receive transactions;
  • Exchange STORJ with any supported coins;
  • Make instant transactions between HT users;
  • Get real time exchange rates on the website;
  • Set OTP for additional protection.

To add Wallet Storj just click on the “plus” button you find at the top right of the balance page, once you successfully enter into your wallet.

Microsoft BaaS to help Blockchain developers

microsoft_baas
Microsoft BaaS is available for all users of the Azure testing environment. Microsoft, in fact, started to test the blockchain back in 2014 and now it is developing its Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS).
Created to allow developers to easily create environments thanks to Azure, DevTest Labs wants to allow companies to limit expenses made for developing their own applications.
Also, the project provides editable templates, so developers don’t have to design new environments; BaaS will also provide artifacts with the objective of telling apps what actions to take after developed.
The project supports more than 20 blockchains, including MultiChain, Eris, Storj and Augur; and it aims at improving developers work for creating and testing distributed ledger with less money.
Microsoft’s Marley Gray commented:
“With the Azure DevTest Labs integration, Microsoft has made it even easier for developers to get blockchain lab environments up-and-running.”
Also, by using the Azure DevTest Labs, developers can doing experiments with private, permissioned, public or consortium blockchains, as Microsoft wants to include every single blockchain to its platform.
