Could you build this?

Partial While basic encryption and file transport over Yggdrasil sockets can be vibe-coded, robust distributed sharding, peer failure handling, and erasure coding require distributed systems engineering.

What it would actually take: The stack would typically use Go or Rust over Yggdrasil IPv6 sockets, utilizing Reed-Solomon erasure coding, libsodium/age encryption, and a distributed hash table or gossip protocol for peer state. The hard problems lie in peer node churn, data reconciliation, verifiable proof of storage, and consistent sharded retrieval without a centralized coordinator.
