Prediction Held up
Yahya: Decentralized storage will not drastically cut costs for most uses
“So the reason that we need decentralized storage networks is not because they're going to reduce the price of storage by orders of magnitude. At least for most kinds of files and for most use cases, I don't believe that that'll be the case.”

Fish: Cryptography cannot force nodes to store unencrypted file duplicates
“There really is no way to force someone to store multiple copies of a file. The only thing that you can cryptographically guarantee Is that somebody is using as much space as they claim to storing files.”

Insight
Fish: Proof of storage turns environmental footprint into practical file storage
“In a decentralized storage network that is based on proof of storage, the footprint is something useful. It's file storage itself.”

Insight
Fish: Standard proofs of retrievability are impractical for decentralized storage networks
“But then when you start to talk about, you know, the economics of an entire decentralized storage network, it seems quite impractical to say, okay, well, you're a user. If you want to store your files in this network, then you have to constantly ping the netwo…”

Yahya: Decentralized storage protocols guarantee fair rules and censorship resistance
“Then you end up having some of these additional properties that it's censorship resistant you can trust that, that that sort of the rules that make it a platform will stay the same or will stay fair because it's the control sort of by a, Body of representative…”

Fish: Decentralized networks give anonymous devices Amazon-level cryptographic trust
“You don't have to spend, you know, millions of dollars on PR to you know, to garner a name like Amazon. Right. You just have a device. You join the network. Nobody knows who you are. But yet everybody should be able to have the same trust in you that they have…”

Insight
Fish: Storage networks must prevent nodes from deduplicating for profit
“And so if you take the perspective that nodes in a decentralized storage network are going to be, you know, acting not necessarily maliciously, but Rationally, and that if they could earn more dollars by saving a little bit of storage, and therefore destroying…”

Assertion Supported
Foundation uploads all creator artwork to a decentralized storage network
“And every artwork and every file that's uploaded by an artist or a creator is uploaded to a decentralized storage network. Which means that the content in this network is not locked onto foundation.”
