Are there any serious methods of decentralised storage? I’ve read about storing files in a blob/string inside a #nostr note itself, which puts the onus of work (storing and distributing) squarely on the relay. Another method that I think isn’t getting enough attention is the usage of Torrents.

I personally like bittorrent (especially v2), once we have a way to combine lightning with that to incentivize storage of certain files or chunks, that would be ideal.
I was working on this protocol but realized it might be tricky
I think it very much depends on what’s being stored and who ought to have access to it. Are we talking about meme files that anyone should be able to download? Or personal documents in encrypted bundles?
Really... What headway did you make on that endeavor? What was tricky about it? This is a topic that interests me greatly.
