At first glance, this reminds me a little bit of datomic - all data history is preserved/deduplicated, fork/decentralization features. Can you comment on how it compares?
I feel weird speaking for them, but at a product level, I think it's fair to characterize Datomic as an application database -- competing with things like mongo, mysql, rethink, etc.
While Noms might be a good fit for certain kinds of application databases (cases where history, or sync, is really important) we're really more focused more on archival, version control, and moving data between systems than being an online transactional database.
Also, at a technical level, unless I'm wildly mistaken, I don't believe that Datomic is content-addressed, and I wouldn't call it "decentralized" (though that word is a bit squishy).
How does it compare to:
