Steemit Images under 1mb could be stored on the Blockchain using Base64!

Very good point. Defiantly the biggest issue is the size no matter what way you look at it.

Yes hosting of copywriter images would be a bid deal because once the data is on the blockchain, its there for good. Although since its stored as Base64 encoded string it actually isn't being hosted , just like how apple hash emails when they sell them to third parties ... but thats all sticky stuff

With many crypto currency projects blockchain bloat is a big problem. The distributed blockchain model is not conducive to any content storage applications.

That might change with future storage technology? If it does, hermetic archive of data would be a valuable thing in some cases.
