Have you guys heard of ipfs? It seems to be a distributed way of serving content. I don't think its anywhere close to prod ready in its current state but it could be one day.
Well Idk but they are always talking about a network for apps. But what I want to see is a decentralized storage. Nothing less nothing more. Thats what IPFS is supposed to be. What other build on top is a whole different story. I think we should put our efforts together instead of trying to reinvent the weel.
Ok this sounds a lot better now. As you explained it Vailid can also be used for storage purposes only? Like a distributed public file storage? And if apps can access this storage this is more than welcome. But I'm more concerned about the foundation.

It "could be one day" for the past decade. That's how long it's been around.

That project seems much smaller and isn't doing the same thing
