Filecoin, a blockchain based (ipfs.pics origin) permanent file storage solution, this is it guys! ( pizzagate )

submitted by BarryOSeven

TL;DR: Did find a perfect solution but it's not finished yet, WE NEED A BLOCKCHAIN BASED SOLUTION in which we are allowed to take part of the network (Make this your requirement)

Since posts and files are being removed we, as a community, are looking for a way to backup and store our files permanently.

People did good research and came with a solution called IPFS.pics

IPFS is a p2p filesystem, so it's easy to download files from eachother, a distributed network.

The problem with this solution is that the files do not exist in the network until somebody requests them. So if somebody decides to download your file, it requests the hash and sends the file to you thus become more decentrilzed.

THIS IS NOT WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Attackers are able to disable the internet of the node before decentrilization, in this case the files are not available anymore.

THAT'S WHY THE PPL OF IPFS.pics DID ANOTHER PROJECT!

FileCoin, it's blockchain based, based on bitcoin and is permanent.

Files are always in the network.

I'd recommend researching this because I did not have the time do dive in depth yet. But this is what we are looking for.

Please start the discussion because this is important for the future of our investigation

edit:

crap, it's not finished yet. we need a solution like this

@BarryOSeven , while this may be important, your submission is not directly related to Pizzagate, and I need to remove it per rule1. Please resubmit this on /v/pizzagatewhatever to keep the discussion alive. Thank you.

Madesafe would be a great choice. Has anyone used it? Perhaps the community can chime in and we can all make a group decision.

Yes this looks really nice, it's good to see there is a client you need to run to participate in the network. This is what blockchain solutions should look like.

There is one thing that worries me btw:

Network storage during alpha phase

Data on this alpha network may get lost and MaidSafe will decide or require to wipe the data and restart the network with each alpha release. We will communicate these events via the SAFE Network Forum and on MaidSafe's blog.

It's still in alpha. But we can try it out and migrate it once there are more solutions available.

One thing to keep in mind: Blockchain is the way, but there should be an option to participate in the network otherwise it's still centralized

Ok looking further dropping some solutions I distilled over here on comments on filecoin.

note this needs research
