Did some high level research. Looks like the data sharing is of the Blockchain itself which when decentralized saves storage for nodes, but is a limited use case. Torrents do decentralized storage too.

The shared compute I saw was Golem, which is pretty neat actually. Not sure how you join the network without either sharing compute or buying into ETH with a traditional currency, bringing us back to square 1.

But as a speculative asset crypto is great! Many a mansion and Corvette have been bought with crypto gains while I'm on the sidelines wondering what the hell is going on, every yesterday being a great time to buy and every today seeming like tomorrow's the day I'd be left holding the bag.
