“Storm provides functionality similar to Torrent, IPFS, more recent Hyperdrive and other distributed data networks – but right next to Lightning channels, with linked Lightning payments and without use of DHTs.”In terms of Nostr, Storm can be described as follows:
– “relays are Lightning Nodes;”
– “not all data has to be signed, opening use case beyond social networks;”
– “embedded indexing and query capabilities allowing to build decentralized search engines (“decentralized Google”);”
– “support for trustless data storage based on zero knowledge with specially-designed form of Lightning Storm channels;”
– “data can be organized in application-based silos, and construct a DAG-based hierarchies;”
– “data are binary, may provide a custom application-specific schema for their internal structure.”
