Add "fetch blob by hash, pay in sats" command to nostr wire protocol. Could be used for blossom or bittorrent. Incentivises running media hosts or keeping up your p2p node that friends can connect to.

damus relay was nuked multiple times nothing happened media hosts are a way bigger risk, and also alternatives are not easy to host 50x-100x more bandwidth and legal risks

If you don't have the requested data, you can forward the request to peers that might have it. "Asking for a friend" — also increases privacy when request origin is not obvious.
