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

I bet you mean "Blossom". https://github.com/hzrd149/blossom

Yeah that’s the one. How’s it coming along?
