Abstract: File sharing that is decentralized and built on a blockchain has demonstrated itself to be a disruptive model for data sharing that is secure, transparent, and trustless while exhibiting high suitability for cloud storage, peer-to-peer networks, and the distribution of digital content. This model provides a solution that is more secure and better at mitigating tampering than traditional centralized file-sharing, which is subject to single points of failure, leaks of data, and unauthorized data access. Over the last few years, there has been a considerable increase in the usage of blockchain technology for decentralized file sharing in addressing issues related to data integrity, ownership verifications, and privacy. Two additional functions of file sharing based on a blockchain are effective data distribution and achieving consensus while maintaining scalability and security. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of all facets of decentralized file sharing including blockchain topologies, data storage schemes, and consensus procedures, while also presenting optimization models, incentive models, and privacy models applied in decentralized schemes. The paper fully discusses advantages and disadvantages of each model and also identifies possible areas for future research directions in blockchain-based decentralized file sharing.
