FluxOS will now connect to nodes deterministically, reducing message volume and boosting accuracy. Notes: https://github.com/RunOnFlux/flux/pull/1051

This release enforces proper applications port availability and so nodes with wrongly configured firewall are expected to fall of the network. This release will be enforced in 2 weeks time. For a full set of changes visit https://github.com/RunOnFlux/flux/releases/

https://home.runonflux.io/ login with your ZelID, go to Apps --> Global Apps --> My Apps. Click on the dropdown arrow and compare your registration key with the one on your Presearch dashboard. You might realize that you copied the API key instead of your node registration key (I made that mistake myself). If that's the case, you can change your key: Global Apps --> My Apps --> Manage --> Update Specifications. Replace your registration key on the "Environment" field.

FluxOs v3.10.0 is out. Release notes: https://github.com/RunOnFlux/flux/releases/tag/v3.10.0

For example, decentralized data storage projects like Filecoin, Arweave, and Sia posted 50-100% user growth, providing blockchain-powered alternatives to AWS, Google Cloud, and Dropbox for distributed app data security.

Sia - A decentralized data storage platform where the proof of work helps maintain the network and provide storage services.

Sia

If I'm following correctly, I believe this is basically what Sia does, although not optimized to be used directly as a media server (or maybe it could?).

Not sure what you aught to do, but I will say the 2 projects Im paying attention to are https://www.helium.com/mine and https://sia.tech/

For consumer storage, Sia, Storj, and Vult (on Züs) can be good options since they are architecturally lower cost because of the erasure code technology. But for enterprise storage, among the available platforms, there isn’t a direct competitor to AWS S3 except for Zus, and archive storage, Filecoin is the best alternative, and for consumer storage, Storj, Sia, and Züs offer better options for fast retrieval times.

As long as your needs are not beyond a TB, you can always consider something that does not require an actual "login" or a national currency, such as using SIAcoin (https://sia.tech). The cost for a terabyte hosted in two places often will cost you under the equivalent of $6-8 per month. It takes getting used to, but since it is blockchain based, it might even be possible for you to mine the means of paying for your cloud storage if what you actually need hosted is low enough.
