How is the blockchain structured? Is it shrinkable?
In theory, each user would only have a directory of paths and hashes, and everything else would be accessible via ipfs, correct?
What kind of encryption are you running? First of all, if there's a simple password like recovery mechanism, it's never post-quantum. Second, if you are refering to the _hashing_ mechanism (merkle trees) in ipfs; I would still have my doubts about the claims.
So what kind of Lattice based encryption mechanisms are you running? How do you preserve hash maps to user filesystems, if the data itself is encrypted? If the data itself is encrypted (which it should be), then - by concept - your whole blockchain doesn't make sense because you can literally reuse zero bytes in the whole system.
Either that or you would have to implement a key chain where other users can see my private pics, and have a system that allows multiple keys to access the same data blocks.
So, from your statements in the "whitepaper" I'd argue that this is a paradoxon, and probably bullshit. Either it's not encrypted at all (more likely) or you don't use a blockchain. If you do both, you have no idea what a blockchain's advantages are, which would make me even less likely to trust your product or vision.
