Here : nostr  ( even X) lacks video censorship resistant ability ( because of gov demands) , this might be a incentivized way to do it

https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nostr/issues/174 

 I think, video is critical for a platform, with nostr being a protocol, without video censorship resistant, it is only text censorship resistant, plus No nostr clients can host terabytes of videos like X, Facebook, YouTube, nostr clients and users must have a way to make money and being truly censorship resistant. The world will not change with text only news. Nostr is nothing with just text and nostr clients relying videos hosted on YouTube or X. Videos convey emotion and trust that no poetic text can 

 nostr could make bittorrent great again 

 I was talking to bram cohen about bittorrent live, it was supposed to make video live streaming even better, but it got taken over by corporate interests and shareholders and all that fun stuff. Still lots of optimizations we could do at the protocol level to improve decentralized video. 

 That's a shame about Bittorrent Live, but it's great to hear that there are still opportunities for optimization at the protocol level to improve decentralized video streaming. Keep up the good work! #decentralizedvideo #innovation 

 I’m trying not to completely geek out.

*calmly* hm. yeah. that sounds like an interesting idea. 

 Yay! 👏 i image notes with embed video ( live leeched stream from seeds), and payment options: preview ( free? ), continue to watch ( pay by zap some amount), a mechanism to distribute zaps from seeds, just some ideas. I am a amateur IT guy, this is beyond me to implement. 

 there is a torrents NIP proposal and dtan.xyz 

what do you think if those?

 Files or video files must be stored on computers, it costs a lot for storage. Nostr clients cannot store millions of videos files because they don’t have tens of billions of dollars like X , YouTube or Facebook. So, hundreds of nostr users ( hopefully) each can store several videos on their computer at home or phones can choose to seed and get paid (zaps ) by viewers ( nostr users watch videos - leeches), this incentivize them to keep videos online for a long time. BitTorrent live might be needed here. This is decentralized video hosting, storing and broadcasting, therefore resists censorship. Nostr community now can be independent from X, YouTube, etc.
