These two projects, how about adding a third one, that Dotcom followup of megaupload. They mentioned Storj as a component once on their roadmap but the current state of development lags behing everything.
The buzz is back on BTCs to fuel it. That would degrade both beeing second class only.
They are now using some bitcache thingy which is either a fork or a totally useless mechanism. I do not trust someone who does not even know how to use screen recording software for examples lol.
On the main topic, maidsafecoin is fake in my opinion, claiming to be in progress and in beta for years already? No news other than news from bagholders about "Remember maidsafecoin coming out soon, buy your coins! " LOL
On storj, it is much more expensive than siacoin, also less noob friendly.
Sia isnt exactly noob friendly but it is so much easier. And there are inbuilt mechanisms by sia to make prices more or less the same cheap prices even in the long run, with hosts that burn coins actually getting more credibility.
