The good torrent sites do have token systems, though, and manage their economies in pretty interesting ways, e.g. periods of "freeleech" to stimulate engagement; stipends for new users; bounties for desirable rare content; etc. And this goes back to warez FTP sites. Maybe private trackers would be a good use case for blockchain storage tokens. Certainly the hypothetical seeding ratio I could have on a certain private tracker for art film would be actually valuable to me.
