Why do old videos on dtube and old songs on dsound no longer work?
Anyone have an explanation for this? Somewhere recently I read that the videos and music are only stored for half a year. Is that true? If it really is the case that old content no longer works, that would be rather stupid to say the least. So it would never be an alternative to youtube or something. What is your opinion?
Right now they are paying for servers to host the IPFS files. Idealy if everyone were to start a server, they would be stored as long as those private parties continued to run servers. I ran one as a test and it eats disk space, a lot of disk space.
I hope they plan a token or coin where running a server would be profitable (like mining). I would definitely buy a dedicated SSD and host encrypted hash files.
Yes, a coin like storj would be good.
buen pensamiento muy exelente trabajo y buen tema @pdq
good thinking very excellent work and good subject
Hi, it is an interesting proposal.
Right now I'm on the late stages of development of a parasite ledger token using the steem blockchain (I store the encripted ledger every 20 transactions on a custom Json)
Its value is pegged to 1 tenth of steem. It uses discord as an interface for user's trasanctions and I am looking for good things to put to use.
What I have in mind reading your comment was to use them to reward those who provide servers for dtube storage.
We can create a dtube wallet were the "witnesses" send the "mined" amount with a link to their technical usage report "witness report" including server specs and storage provided storage used etc and based on the reliability and apport to the infrastructure their report gets voted by a big SP account to the value of the transfer of the token they are sending...
A typical 2tb server goes for about 60$ per month so a weekly update voted for a baseline of 150 tokens should help cover the costs. And provide a fun way of encouragement.
What do you think?
SiaCoin does something like that.
Sell space and mine though space disc.
I heard of the problems from other steemians aswell, but my old videos do still work. Although some have a very long load time.
Also older than six month?
Actually no, you're right, the old ones (older than 6 months) do not longer work...
I think they are still developing, so with time, I think the videos will stay longer.
