* There is enough demands for contents on YouTube. Content creators tries to meet the demands. Youtube hides the contents from consumers or demonetise them. These all started after a powerful group of advisertizers(companies) decided to "boycott" youtube for refusing to censor some kind of contents.


Can Crypto/Blockchain fix the mess?
I think it could...
* A Blockchain project needs these to thrive:  great developers, lots of users , Miners, Nodes, and investors/hodlers of its Cryptocurrency.
I think this can be achieved with passion, dedication and hard work.

 There is one problem though:  Can Blockchain work for video storage considering the massive amount of videos that will be generated and stored on various nodes. Assuming 1 terabyte of videos are generated each month, 12 terabyte each year, how do you store them?  On Blockchain or on a Centralized storage?  If Centralized, then the project does not qualify to be regarded as a Blockchain project.

Wonder if developers have been able to solve this problem. I mean the problem of having lots of videos fully decentralized?




 I posted that a few minutes ago on "Altcoin discussion" section. I wanted to delete it to re-post on this section but notice that some members have commented already.  Guess I will get good answers here...

You can move your thread here tho, I think some project already working on this matter, they aim to challenge video distribution / streaming industry and bring blockchain into it
