That's not correct. When it comes to storage and transfer, blockchain alternatives are fraction of the cost of Amazon. For example Sia Skynet is offering $5/month/TB[1] storage. If you skip Skynet and run your own Sia node the price can even go lower to $2/month/TB basing on the market conditions.

- coder543 6y agoAmazon is hosting the Common Crawl on S3 for free, so... yes, $2/month/TB is a lot more expensive.
- gillesjacobs 6y agoIt seems that at least on Sia's plans, you can maximally host 20TB for 80$/month, not even a tenth of a monthly common crawl. Of course Sia's Skynet are package deals right now and I guess they're currently bootstrapping the network with users. Filecoin has no operational storage yet. Storj quotes 10$/Terabyte/month [1] so that will come out expensive. 1. https://www.storj.io/blog/2019/11/announcing-pioneer-2-and-tardigrade.io-pricing/ https://www.storj.io/blog/2019/11/announcing-pioneer-2-and-t...
