Is Bitcoin A Good File Storage Solution?

In this video, I discuss whether the Bitcoin blockchain is a good file storage solution. I conclude that it is not.

The blockchain has always been kept as small as possible by design. An examination of Bitcoin's history shows that Bitcoin culture has always sought to minimize the usage of the blockchain for non-monetary purposes. Rather than being political censorship, this has always been a practical concern and imposed by Bitcoiners themselves, not by hostile governments.

Don't let grifting crypto VCs tell you otherwise, even if their organization has "Bitcoin" in the name.
