Why multiple providers? With no-features data storage, S3 can easily provide that without an intermediary and in a pretty well automated way.

Unless you're in a country with very unstable currency, the exchange rate change will be very slight. Sia changed ~60x over the last 2 years, which is significant.
The price of course won't change during the contract, but what happens after is not trivial to plan for.
