Good point about Backblaze's costs vs. consumer pricing. I was actually citing their cost as a reference for a lower-bound on how much storage can cost nowadays

Good point about Backblaze's costs vs. consumer pricing. I was actually citing their cost as a reference for a lower-bound on how much storage can cost nowadays per TB. I wanted to compare that to the Filecoin network. However, your comparison is better anyway. Filecoin is basically operating as a network in the same capacity as B2 (i.e. as a storage service provider) and we should compare prices accordingly. Also, good find on the filecoin deals link. That's exactly what I was looking for but never found.
