| Yes but according to the protocol you MUST use Arweave to do so. The blockchain can already store data for you, not large chunks of data, but BTC can store 1MB which should be more than enough to put a link to Arwave, S3, ipfs, coordinates to a buried USB stick, etc. Arweave is NOT a permanent file storage solution. All participants in the network could simply shred their hard drives. The annoying thing is, their own stated goal is > Our goal with this is to make secret recovery easier and more intuitive. Then they go on to instead solve the problem of both secret recovery AND bitrot/linkrot (without truly solving the bitrot/linkrot problem, simply tying themselves to a separate project which claims that they have). Edit: To put it another way, if I pitch to you an interesting IP routing algorithm and then said "but you can only use Cisco routers to do it" you might question what my interest in Cisco is vs. my interest in solving the posed routing problem. |
