#Storj Share is an open-source application that allows users to rent out their excess hard drive space in exchange for STORJ, a cryptocurrency similar to Ethereum. Those running Storj Share will act as decentralized cloud storage nodes for the network.

here's a quick and easy HowTo setup STORJ Ubuntu 14.04 / 16.04 guide with just few lines copy and paste code to get your node running

3 Steps

-> 1. update system and install dependencies

apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y &&
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y &&
apt-get install npm systemd git nano python build-essential -y &&
wget -O- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.0/install.sh|bash
