Getting torrents and nostr together is such a no-brainer
The idea of hosting a video forever at the same identifier is tantalizing
Could tie nicely into bounties for file service
And then use open timestamps to prove when the file was created
Now the truth becomes uncensorable
The engagement on the nostr note that points to it is an uncensorable record of engagement
We can actually overcome the phenomenon of a video going viral and then being scrubbed from the internet
Media hosting is the weakest link on Nostr. Nobody can take down your posts, but nothing stops them from going after your photo / video host. And media is such a big part of how we interact. We do need something more robust.
I haven’t checked on it in awhile but bloom seemed extremely promising if I recall
