RE: The death of steepshot... And why we need decentralized apps!

There is currently no system for earning crypto, if you run a node you get your own benefits such as content that you look at through the node gets cached and provided to other nodes making the system fast for popular files reducing a single point of failure. I am working on an experimental system where you can earn crypto for hosting dtube videos or other content.

Sort:  

That system would be awesome, and I would probably try to run a node at home, I have a really really fast network, could I run the node from a normal computer or would it require a server or any kind of special equipment? Kinda new at all this, but it would be an awesome project!

When the system is up and running I'll be the first one to give it a try :)

Yes

There isn't any special equipment. You can even run it on a phone 😂

Since it is peer to peer wouldn't a faster computer and internet make the node run faster too?
