I thought latency was measured in seconds for these?

Then a court comes and orders some deletion ... :-)

Removal is probably possible by just burning trash over real data. But identifying what needs to be burned. Ouch.

I can understand needing this tech for court records and similar stuff. Even for libraries which desire to store everything in the world. But that's about it. I don't think many people go to old backups and see their old documents or code they wrote. Photos, sure, but even that is not a frequent thing.

Everyone, for cold storage. There's no cheaper, denser and more reliable option available.

I know it's been said already, but actually a ton of off-site backup services operate exclusively on tape. It's significantly cheaper and more reliable for cold storage solutions.

Would be huge for Bitcoin. We could x1000 the number of transactions per second

Edit: If you are mad please don't just downvote and explain why you disagree

I didn't downvoted you as i sympathise with you but i can explain, people hate cryptobros and crypto with them, because cryptobros showed themselves as major pieces of shit in previous mining boom, of course i know that normal miners that was mining before mining boom is ok people, that's why i said i sympathise with you, but mining boom attracted alot of scammers con artists and pieces of shite, and that's the way your everyday Joe percieves them now, basically small amount of shits made all of the reputation and hate crypto have now, and when someone shows with crypto proposals now people starting to have Vietnam flashbacks of 2020 mining boom with clowns and circuses
