Hello Christopher,
Decentralized storage as an idea looks interesting. I am researching about similar things for one of my Bitcoin project. Although an implementation or proof of concept code in the BIP would have been better. Also since this involves LN, maybe it can just be a LN project instead of BIP? Not the best person to comment on what can be a BIP.
Few links that you may find interesting:
https://github.com/bkiac/tarnhelm
https://github.com/ElementsProject/filebazaar
The kind of decentralized storage that I think can be helpful for Bitcoin projects:
1.Uses torrents for files and communication required (with Tor)
2.Easy to use API to save, read, edit etc. something in a Bitcoin project using torrents. Only involve lightning network and payments when spamming can be an issue. For example: If a developer wants users to pay for every P2P offer they create using a DEX protocol.
Projects that are exploring such options: https://github.com/JoinMarket-Org/joinmarket-clientserver/issues/415

Thanks Prayank. I think the next step for both of these proposals is to
define an API. I thought about including that in the BIPs and decided it
wasn't necessary yet to get the ideas across initially. Maybe when the APIs
are defined they could go into the BIP, but it's probably better to have in
a different document. I also agree with you on Tor.
As far as whether this should be a BIP or not, I wondered that same
question. I think the BIP format is well defined and understood so I used
it for this and the other BIPs that I'm currently working on like the
incentivized moderation protocol which is mentioned in this BIP. There are
a number of "Application" BIPs, which is why I decided it made sense.
However, if it's decided there's a better format for these BIPs I'm open to
it.
Regards,
Chris

Anything that Bitcoin software would benefit in collaboration with other
projects on qualifies.
Lightning itself really should be a series of BIPs.
