Thanks for the in-depth analysis, it's super helpful.

My understanding is that IPFS is bittorrent + blockchain mashed together (I've read the tech specs, it's more complicated but will have to suffice as a explanation device here). The bittorrent part certainly has redundancy when the data is widely accessed, it's just not guaranteed to be.

From a high level, it seems that Infinit has just more stated features at the moment, but it does look like the two technologies are in the same space and can solve similar problems of file storage in a large, distributed manner.
