Datacoin is being used in Storj development and testing (
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=555159.0 ) for now. There can be more plans on DTC - Storj cooperation, when these plans are approved\released, I'll push this info to all DTC threads.
It sounds more like Storj is trying to create a Datacoin competitor/replacement.
DTC has been the first like btc was ever in it's field. This status is unchangeable like stored data in blockchain. :-) It gives unique worth to this coin
I agree. I think people underestimate Datacoin as a concept. I think metachains, or chains that describe or store data other than just coins, will be a huge concept by the end of the year.
