How/where would content be stored? As transactions on the blockchain? Seems like that could be bloated. Maybe an identifier could be added somehow to a transaction that points to where the content is stored?
Also, how much would you expect each message to cost? Assuming 1 message = 1 transactions, how does that translate to actual coin amounts + mining fees?
- yafujifide 11y ago> How/where would content be stored? Modern web browsers have a real database called IndexedDB. The users store the content. Most users, of course, would not store most content. Users that wanted to could run the app full-time on their local machine, where the database would be leveldb instead of IndexedDB. They would store much more data. Not all data would necessarily be saved forever. > Also, how much would you expect each message to cost? Payment channels reduce the cost of transactions to next to zero. An "upvote" does not actually go on the blockchain - only when channels are opened or closed to transactions go on the blockchain, incurring a transaction fee.
- dida1337 11y agoCould ipfs.io be used for content storing? Together with filecoin could it be better fit then your proposed solution?
