I don’t think this project makes a lot of sense directly in Kubo.
IPFS is not that great as an everything file storage solution.
The main point is content addressing, (using hashes as addresses), this allows us to decouple content from, data transfer and storage.
Then underneath this the clients don’t need to care about how their files are stored and transferred because they rely and verify the hashes, then where the bytes came from we can just not care.
This allows other layers to provide their own solutions which support content addressing without having to update the trust model.
TL;DR: if I were you I would work on a new daemon that provides data over IPIP402 trustless gateway and bitswap so Kubo and Helia can download data from you, and then you can build your erasure coding network between your nodes.
