Current blockchain storage projects BitTorrent, Filecoin, Sia and Storj are among the decentralized storage networks using blockchain. BitTorrent's decentralized storage network is based on its file-sharing protocol (BTFS) and Tron's decentralized blockchain platform. The network lets storage "renters" pay "hosts" for their excess capacity. The Filecoin distributed cloud storage network uses blockchain and the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) to let users purchase storage from providers on the network. IPFS is a peer-to-peer (P2P) hypermedia distribution system designed to provide a decentralized method for storing and sharing files. Nodes within the IPFS network form a distributed file system that can be accessed in many ways, including the Linux-based FUSE interface and HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol). Local files can be added to the IPFS network and made available to the world.
