If I share data on an online hosting I also doesn’t pay more for distribution? Or is this for some special cases? I havent checked for a long time but I had over 800Mb/s in like 2010 at OVH and I don’t think it has gone exacty down …
Are you trying to really understand how the thing works, or are you just looking for ways to dismiss the thing so that you can remain ignorant about it.
We’re talking about data transmission caps (as in, 1TB/month), not in bandwidth (as in 800MB/s) Also, IPFS is a protocol. The “cap” of the network is only theoretically bound by the amount of nodes running in it, but in practice it doesn’t really matter because the bandwidth of any single node will always end up being the real bottleneck.
I’m not trying to dismiss this thing, but I see not very many usecases for it. That’s why I ask all those questions and the answers are not really fulfilling IMO.
BTW 800Mb/s is sure a cap too in its way, a 100MB/s is just that, capped on one second instead of a month.

There is always a cap.
I assure you, IPFS has a cap too.
The question is, it is higher?
“IPFS” can not have a cap, because IPFS is not a service provider. IPFS is a protocol.
Fair enough.
So the IPFS network has a cap. Like OVH doesn’t have a cap as it’s a company, but their network does.
