This could get really big. Are there copies of your data distributed inside the network similar to say, HDFS? Would it be possible to interact with the network using bash?
I have some servers, say I would put a server up with 1 TB, can you give an idea (very rough estimate) how much you would earn per month for opening it up? 0.0001 BTC? 0.01 BTC? 1 BTC?
Using Dropbox rates and redundancy that would be about 0.7415 BTC per year at current rates.
