Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. First map the repository's existing storage and peer-transfer paths, then review how rust-libp2p could support chunk distribution and verification. Done would require an agreed design and implementation for storing, retrieving, and verifying file chunks across peers.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

How can I split file into chunks, and store the chunks in different peer (using rust-libp2p), and the verify chunks by downloading chunks from different peers, without downloading the complete file.
