RE: Steembit: a decentralized storage marketplace for Steemland

in #steem6 years ago

Makes a lot of sense and we’ve seen quite a few decentralized data storage/CDNs in the works like SIA and Storaj

I think it’s a practical approach to a real problem and not just solving it but creating possible new revenue streams and support for steem

It will also help dapps like dTube and like you said alternative file storage! This is a huge market for both amazon, google and Microsoft and a market that needs disruption

I read the Storj whitepaper a while ago and don't recall the details. But I read the Sia one recently and the cryptoeconomics of Sia suck big time - it attempts to match storage providers to storage consumers in a peer-to-peer network ("bitcoin for storage").

Which can be useful if you try to store controversial material ("censorship resistance") but it is hugely inefficient.

On an unrelated note, you only approve 4 witnesses - it costs exactly 0 (zero) to pick another 26.
Highly appreciated if you'd pick @lux-witness (it's only a couple of clicks to do it). Thanks in advance

Sure, I've voted for @lux-witness now. Good luck wit steemland and

Have you heard about Gaia which is a decentralized storage system used by Blockstack? What do you think about it?
