Instead of allowing big companies to store your data (and create profiles that they can sell to advertisers or governments), Box decentralizes it all, allowing people to store each other\u2019s data. As simple as that was to explain, Box\u2019s hardware reinforces that simplicity with an intuitive design that\u2019s literally shaped like a box. Looking almost like a Rubik\u2019s Cube from its top view, Box comes with a platform that lets you plug as many as 9 towers into it. A base-level Box offers one terabyte of cloud storage, and to expand it, all you do is either add towers to the platform or plug framework expansion cards into the towers to upgrade their capacity.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_377402\" style=\"width: 1290px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/igg.me\/at\/functionland\/x\/28885543#\/\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-377402\" class=\"size-full wp-image-377402\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/04\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/Box_Free_Forever_Cloud_Storage_Alternative_07.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/04\/28\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet \u2018Box\u2019, a decentralized cloud server that lets you own your data instead of Amazon or Google\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/04\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/Box_Free_Forever_Cloud_Storage_Alternative_07.jpg\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-377402\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-377402\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/04\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/Box_Free_Forever_Cloud_Storage_Alternative_07.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/04\/28\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet \u2018Box\u2019, a decentralized cloud server that lets you own your data instead of Amazon or Google\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/04\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/Box_Free_Forever_Cloud_Storage_Alternative_07.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0648786275385337\" data-ad-slot=\"1017606968\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width=\"\"><\/p>\n<div overflow=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-377402\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Box is stationary hardware that sits on your desk, syncs with your devices and provides all the advantages you\u2019ve come to expect from cloud services.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/igg.me\/at\/functionland\/x\/28885543#\/\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/47KFUvPo0eQCI12k65\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/04\/28\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet \u2018Box\u2019, a decentralized cloud server that lets you own your data instead of Amazon or Google\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/47KFUvPo0eQCI12k65\/giphy.gif\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/47KFUvPo0eQCI12k65\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/04\/28\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet \u2018Box\u2019, a decentralized cloud server that lets you own your data instead of Amazon or Google\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/47KFUvPo0eQCI12k65\/giphy.gif\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Once assembled and switched on, your Box connects with other Boxes to form the secure, people-owned FULA network. Fula (short for Functionland) is a Blockchain-attached Storage Network developed by the folks at Box. It helps securely encrypt and scramble your data in a way that isn\u2019t accessible to anyone else, and any storage you\u2019re not using gets rented out to other people on the FULA network, allowing you to earn $FULA tokens in the process. It\u2019s worth noting that your Box isn\u2019t mining coins, it\u2019s just issuing rewards based on its signature Proof-of-Resource (PoR) consensus. $FULA tokens have an intrinsic value that rises and falls over time too, just like any currency, and can be sold on compatible exchanges.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/igg.me\/at\/functionland\/x\/28885543#\/\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/xLJRUCut2xohVB1Zf7\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/04\/28\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet \u2018Box\u2019, a decentralized cloud server that lets you own your data instead of Amazon or Google\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/xLJRUCut2xohVB1Zf7\/giphy.gif\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/xLJRUCut2xohVB1Zf7\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/04\/28\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet \u2018Box\u2019, a decentralized cloud server that lets you own your data instead of Amazon or Google\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/xLJRUCut2xohVB1Zf7\/giphy.gif\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_377402\" style=\"width: 1290px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/igg.me\/at\/functionland\/x\/28885543#\/\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-377402\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/7VKZbymmPSlEeMR2hN\/source.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/04\/28\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet \u2018Box\u2019, a decentralized cloud server that lets you own your data instead of Amazon or Google\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/7VKZbymmPSlEeMR2hN\/source.gif\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-377402\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/7VKZbymmPSlEeMR2hN\/source.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/04\/28\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet \u2018Box\u2019, a decentralized cloud server that lets you own your data instead of Amazon or Google\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/7VKZbymmPSlEeMR2hN\/source.gif\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-377402\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fotos is a polished, forever-free app that provides swift, seamless, easy access to and sharing of your photos from anywhere, across any device.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>All that jargon aside, at its core, Box really acts as your own personal cloud storage in a way that\u2019s cheaper and more secure than the ones currently being offered by giants like Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, and Google.

On launch, Box will come with its own photo storage and backup app called Fotos (which they say is free to use forever), and the company is encouraging developers and designers to make an ecosystem of apps for its users, promising rewards for them too.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_377400\" style=\"width: 1290px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"

software are both open-source, to that end\u2026 and for people worrying about the gas bills and electricity costs for blockchain-based data storage, Box\u2019s makers say that the device is built on

id=\"caption-attachment-377403\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Box is powered by Raspberry Pi 4, which consists of a high-performance 64-bit quad-core processor. It offers up to 8 GB of RAM, dual-band 2.4\/5.0 GHz wireless LAN, Bluetooth 5.0, Gigabit Ethernet, and USB 3.0. Box has multiple, expandable USB3 ports that serve to extend Box\u2019s functions with more towers, or to enable it to act as a docking station.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>So, is it worth investing in something like the Box? Well, it really makes sense for people who understand the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> to be early adopters first. Like with every nascent technology, this will help work out any potential kinks and allow other consumers to eventually come on board. As its community grows, Box\u2019s network will become more reliable and more secure. Financially though, it\u2019s really a no-brainer. On the one hand, you\u2019ve got companies like Amazon, Google, and Apple charging an average of $200 USD per household per year for cloud storage (while simultaneously benefitting from your data).<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/igg.me\/at\/functionland\/x\/28885543#\/\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-377401\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/04\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/Box_Free_Forever_Cloud_Storage_Alternative_06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/04\/28\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet \u2018Box\u2019, a decentralized cloud server that lets you own your data instead of Amazon or Google\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/04\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/Box_Free_Forever_Cloud_Storage_Alternative_06.jpg\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-377401\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/04\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/Box_Free_Forever_Cloud_Storage_Alternative_06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/04\/28\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet \u2018Box\u2019, a decentralized cloud server that lets you own your data instead of Amazon or Google\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/04\/meet-box-a-decentralized-cloud-server-that-lets-you-own-your-data-instead-of-amazon-or-google\/Box_Free_Forever_Cloud_Storage_Alternative_06.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Box, on the other hand, is just $299 for its Lite version, which is a single tower that provides a terabyte of storage. For that price, you own the cloud drive in perpetuity, and can expand as and when you choose. Moreover, you even stand to make money from your Box by renting out the storage to other people.
