ancient-store-storj

Store your core-geth block data on Storj.

This program is a persistence manager for core-geth "ancient" block data using the distributed data provider Storj, and can be used as a replacement for the core-geth (and go-ethereum) default of persisting ancient data in local flat, compressed files.
