(contd. from part 1)
Part 2 of 3
Upon installation, users will have the option to deploy an IPFS server of their own to start servicing the infrastructure's trustless data storage needs.

All users will also receive 5 testnet-Cherry Tokens (tCHER) upon creating their blockchain account. These will be used to pay transaction fees, and, more specifically, to upload files to the data store. If you run out of tCHER you can request topups from admins. A faucet will also be released shortly.

For the first week we expect the network to be very unstable. During this period we will grow the number of peers and store providers, and apply some fixes to issues that would naturally emerge in our code's first release to the wild. Once the network has reached a significant structure we will proceed with the subsequent release steps. We plan on making the development iteration as transparent as possible. (contd. below)
