ok, the title got me excited. What I hoped to find:
Upload waypoints that you want to see images of. Bid for your waypoints. Public waypoints can pool bids and video is shared publicly. Private waypoints hide the drone's waypoint and provide the video only to the payer.

With many drones all over the place this could be very interesting for all kind of applications. The drones could be controlled by humans and clients might be among others news channels that want airial footage of events.

Sounds like something interesting and worth looking into for an investment.  Seems like the ideas around uses for bitcoins are becoming more robust!

I also thought about it. So you want a TOR hidden service, where you can demand video on some GPS coordinates anonymously and pay with BTC?
Possible, but it would be limited for a region, where the aircraft sits.
How to find enough people, who invest in hardware to run a wide spread service?

If people can 3D-print these drones, equipped with solar cells and contribute them to the network, it could become a funny whack-a-mole scenario with LE actually gunning them down with no actual persons made responsible

you surely can't 3D print electronics. and even a 3D print of the aircraft alone would be probably quite heavy, not stiff enough and well doesn't work. or can you 3D print a nuclear power station nowadays?
