Another potential use

So someone advertised Archain, earlier… (guess it was deleted), basically a crypto based around the idea of the likes of archive.org and their website archiving activities.

I read up on it and it’s pretty vague… there were statements such as [paraphrasing] “generally media won’t be archived, but can be hashed, and if in 10-20 years people wanted to find the linked file, they could offer a bounty to find the same file that matches the hash…” (needle in a haystack?!)

All I thought was… er… surely you could have a “safe://archive.kenroolsok” website on the safe network that did this, including hosting all of the content, no stripping of media?! Why a new currency?!

I’ve seen that archive.org are still subject to DMCA complaints (so not completely archival), how would that be managed in the Safe environment? Would it be worth getting them engaged to fund an app? or at least a Safe website?

Sorry if this has been discussed already.
