- joeyspn 10y agoWith the same logic also a BitTorrent tracker should use a blockchain, but obviously it's not the case. You are distributing trust-based units (money, legal and financial instruments, etc), not files (video, images, etc).
- jeeceebees 10y agoI think very many IPFS use cases do need / benefit from blockchains.
