RE: SPK Network - Using GraphQL for 3Speak Mobile App

When you say off-chain storage is it more focused on persistence or integrity of data? For instance, IPFS is great until no one is storing the files any longer. Is this an additional layer on top of an existing technology or is it completely novel?

Sort:  

it allows platforms or communities or creators to autonomously incentivise peers with crypto for storing data on IPFS. nothing else like it out there

So essentially it's a layer written on top of IPFS? What's the expected cost and estimated persistence of the data?

The system is built so that the market will sort that out to the cheapest possible, longest storage period. When ppl are using spare storage space and agreeing on variable time locked storage contracts, the market will find its way

So free market economics. I'm down with that.
