1. A method that includes a processor and a local storage device accessible by the processor executing a request to substitute a first blobber with a second blobber utilizing a blockchain infrastructure comprising:
Identifying the first blobber to be substituted;
writing a replace blobber transaction to the blockchain platform indicating the first blobber to be replaced;
identifying the second blobber replacing the first blobber;
identifying a content to be written to the second blobber;
generating write markers with respect to the content for the second blobber;
transferring the content to the second blobber; and
responsive to detecting a successful completion of writes of all the content to the second blobber, writing a transaction to drop the first blobber.
