Storj is a cloud storage platform founded in 2014 as a decentralized alternative to the centralized cloud
storage that some companies like Amazon or Google had offered. Unlike the centralized platforms, on
Storj's decentralized platform, people share or rent the free spaces they have on their hard drives with
people who need somewhere to put their data. This storage can be used for video streaming or
software distribution. The Storj users can make money by sharing the free space on their computers.

Germany is one of the countries where not only the buying and selling of cryptocurrencies is legal, but it also recognizes exchange providers and wallets in the category of financial services companies. From the moment that virtual currencies like Bitcoin emerged in the world, the German Financial Regulatory Authority accepted that as a legal trade. Furthermore, purchasing cryptocurrency is much easier in Germany compared to most countries, because people can buy Bitcoin and other valid digital currencies via bank, credit card, debit card, and even electronic payment. That shows how popular cryptocurrency is in this country. Almost 90% of people in Germany know what cryptocurrency is, and 25% of them own at least one coin as their digital asset. Therefore, Germans won’t face any legal rules or problems while buying digital currencies

The German Federal Central Tax Office has recognized cryptocurrencies as private money, which means it is a legal asset that is not property or foreign currency. According to taxfix, cryptocurrency is considered tax-free, but there are some conditions. The first condition is the duration of ownership. If a crypto owner holds the tokens for one year and then sells them, this trade is tax-free if the sale profit is 600 EUR. Therefore, if they sell the tokens and gain even one euro higher than 600 EUR, they should pay tax for the entire profit. The sale profit of tokens holding more than one year is tax-free. Meanwhile, if they sell the coins for less than a year (11 months) and gain profit from selling them, they should pay its tax, which is the same as the regular income tax rate of 45% plus the 5.5% Solidarity Tax.

As mentioned earlier, the main usage of the STORJ token is as a payment solution on its network. People
who want to rent a space to store their data should pay STORJ to the host who shares the space on their
computer. Therefore, people working on this system need to have STORJ tokens in their wallet to be
able to use this network.
Like other tokens, STORJ's price changes over time, which makes it an option for investment. You can
buy STORJ tokens, keep them in an e-wallet, and wait until the price goes up to sell or trade them with
other currencies. However, this process is not as easy as in theory. You need to be more cautious about
this world because cryptocurrencies are volatile and risky. You should always keep watching its price,
read its news, follow experts, and find out what analysts think about its future. Thus, you can have a
better investment.

Anyone with a valid identity and bank account can buy cryptocurrency in Germany. Many platforms and exchanges in Germany accept buying cryptocurrencies with a debit card or even Paypal. Therefore, consider which payment method you want to choose before purchasing any cryptocurrency and select the platform that accepts that method. Always choose a legal cryptocurrency exchange, such as Blocktrade, and a secure wallet to buy and keep your preferred coins.
