Bitcloud is an open source distributed cloud storage system and escrow agent based on Tahoe-LAFS that allows publishers to pay storage nodes for storing encrypted data and sharing that data with others.
The decentralized nature of Bitcloud allows anyone to publish large amounts of data in a way that is free from censorship, high costs, and proprietary software.
The first application for bitcloud will be WeTube, a platform for viewing and publishing videos, podcasts, ebooks, music, and other forms of media.

The decentralized nature of Bitcloud allows anyone to publish large amounts of content that is free from censorship, high costs, and proprietary software.
Bitcloud can be the base for decentralized applications that require data storage and bandwidth.
There are many Bitcoin 2.0 projects in the works right now, but they all still rely on some type of blockchain.
In Bitcloud, the blockchain is replaced by a distributed database, also known as the nodepool.
