I don't think there is a path to break even for storage alone, today. The real earnings seem to be in the transfer rates, but traffic is too low to ever consider it as anything other than an experiment. I heard Storj was going to prioritize farmers by latency and bandwidth; now that I've been reading about the turmoil, I'm not confident it will happen anytime soon. My payout last month was ~$5 and I was in the top 30 by payout, if I remember correctly, but I had only received a couple of TB of data. This month has been much better, so maybe ~$100 but mostly because of data transfer. I've seen peak bandwidth of over 400Mbps in and out (800Mbps combined). Interestingly, a number of the top earners have been trying to game the system by uploading a small amount of data until the shard ends up on their node and then doing the massive transfer to generate more Storj than the cost of the transit.
