Tribbler on Blockchain?

I had already made Tribbler based on a somewhat traditional approach to distributed systems: using a logical clock synchronized across all distributed data stores. This project aimed to explore the facets of blockchain through a re-implementation of Tribbler using blockchain.

The main difference between the original Tribbler and the blockchain implementation is that the duties of data storage and synchronization is offloaded to the blockchain. I experimented with different proportions of computation between the frontend and backend to try and reduce gas fees
I found that we were able to offload a lot of the original Tribbler functionality to the frontend and thus minimized computation on the blockchain, reducing gas fees by 79.57%
Moreover, I was able to gain a deeper understanding of blockchain and the behavior of dApps.
