You might be interested in Arweave or IPFS:

Arweave network is like Bitcoin, but for data: A permanent and decentralized web inside an open ledger. [0]

The InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a decentralized protocol, hypermedia, and peer-to-peer (P2P) network for distributed file storage and sharing. The shadow libraries Anna's Archive and Library Genesis host books via IPFS. [1]

If I remember correctly IPFS alone won't guarantee that the file will be around.
You have to pay some service to keep it pinned. Also cross your fingers and hope IPFS is still a thing in 100 years.
I am surprised it still exists given how it still fails to deliver anything revolutionary.
