-## HLS Video Formatting
-
-`draft` `optional`
-
-Defines how to format [HLS](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8216) (HTTP Live Streaming) videos to be compatible with [BUD-01](./01.md) blob retrieval.
-
-## Overview
-
-HLS videos consist of multiple files:
-- A master playlist (`.m3u8`) that references variant playlists
-- Variant playlists (`.m3u8`) that reference media segments
-- Media segment files (typically `.ts` files)
-
-Each file MUST be uploaded as a separate blob and referenced by its SHA256 hash using the [BUD-01](./01.md#get-sha256---get-blob) `GET /<sha256>` endpoint format.
-
-## Relative Paths
-
-To ensure compatibility across different Blossom servers and allow easy server switching, all URLs in HLS playlists MUST use relative paths containing the SHA256 hash of the referenced blob.
-
-Clients MUST NOT include the full server domain in playlist URLs. This allows the same playlist to work with any Blossom server that hosts the referenced blobs.
-
-## Master Playlist Format
-
-The master playlist (`.m3u8`) MUST reference variant playlists using relative paths with SHA256 hashes.
-
-The master playlist MUST have the MIME type `application/vnd.apple.mpegurl` or `application/x-mpegURL`.
-
-Example master playlist:
-
-```m3u8
-#EXTM3U
-#EXT-X-VERSION:3
-#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:BANDWIDTH=1280000,RESOLUTION=854x480
-a1b2c3d4e5f6789012345678901234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef123456.m3u8
-#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:BANDWIDTH=2560000,RESOLUTION=1280x720
-f6e5d4c3b2a1098765432109876543210987654321fedcba0987654321fedcba.m3u8
-```
-
-## Variant Playlist Format
-
-Variant playlists (`.m3u8`) MUST reference media segments using relative paths with SHA256 hashes.
-
-Each segment URL MUST be a relative path containing the SHA256 hash of the segment file. The file extension (`.ts`, `.m4s`, etc.) MAY be included for compatibility with HLS clients.
-
-Example variant playlist:
-
-```m3u8
-#EXTM3U
-#EXT-X-VERSION:3
-#EXT-X-TARGETDURATION:10
-#EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE:0
-#EXTINF:10.000,

-#EXT-X-ENDLIST
-```
-
-## Media Segments
-
-Media segment files (typically `.ts` files) MUST be uploaded as separate blobs. Each segment MUST be retrievable via the [BUD-01](./01.md#get-sha256---get-blob) `GET /<sha256>` endpoint.
-
-The server SHOULD set the `Content-Type` header appropriately:
-- `.ts` files: `video/mp2t` or `video/MP2T`
-- `.m4s` files: `video/iso.segment` or `video/mp4`
-
-## Client Implementation
-
-When generating HLS playlists for Blossom:
-
-1. Upload each media segment as a separate blob using [BUD-02](./02.md#put-upload---upload-blob) `PUT /upload`
-2. Upload each variant playlist as a separate blob
-3. Upload the master playlist as a separate blob
-4. In all playlists, use relative paths containing only the SHA256 hash (and optional file extension) of the referenced blob
-5. When serving the master playlist, clients MAY prepend the current server's base URL to resolve relative paths
-
-Example client flow:
-
-1. Upload segment `segment001.ts` → get SHA256: `1a2b3c4d...`
-2. Upload segment `segment002.ts` → get SHA256: `2b3c4d5e...`
-3. Create variant playlist referencing `1a2b3c4d...ts` and `2b3c4d5e...ts`
-4. Upload variant playlist → get SHA256: `a1b2c3d4...`
-5. Create master playlist referencing `a1b2c3d4...m3u8`
-6. Upload master playlist → get SHA256: `f9e8d7c6...`
-
-## Server Implementation
-
-When serving HLS playlists, servers MUST:
-
-1. Return the playlist content with the appropriate `Content-Type` header (`application/vnd.apple.mpegurl` or `application/x-mpegURL`)
-2. Serve playlists via the [BUD-01](./01.md#get-sha256---get-blob) `GET /<sha256>` endpoint
-3. Support optional file extensions (e.g., `/<sha256>.m3u8`) as specified in [BUD-01](./01.md#get-sha256---get-blob)
-
-When a client requests a playlist blob, the server MUST return the playlist content as-is, without modifying relative paths. The client is responsible for resolving relative paths to absolute URLs using the current server's base URL.
-
-## URL Resolution
-
-When a client retrieves a playlist from `https://cdn.example.com/<sha256>.m3u8`, relative paths in the playlist (e.g., `a1b2c3d4...m3u8`) MUST be resolved relative to the playlist's origin.
-
-For example, if a playlist is served from `https://cdn.example.com/f9e8d7c6...m3u8` and contains a relative path `a1b2c3d4...m3u8`, the client SHOULD resolve it to `https://cdn.example.com/a1b2c3d4...m3u8`.
-
-This allows the same playlist blob to work with any Blossom server, as long as all referenced blobs are available on that server.
-
-## Example Complete Structure
-
-```
-Master Playlist (SHA256: f9e8d7c6...)
-  └─> Variant Playlist 1 (SHA256: a1b2c3d4...)
-        └─> Segment 1 (SHA256: 1a2b3c4d...)
-        └─> Segment 2 (SHA256: 2b3c4d5e...)
-        └─> Segment 3 (SHA256: 3c4d5e6f...)
-  └─> Variant Playlist 2 (SHA256: b2c3d4e5...)
-        └─> Segment 1 (SHA256: 4d5e6f78...)
-        └─> Segment 2 (SHA256: 5e6f7890...)
-        └─> Segment 3 (SHA256: 6f789012...)
-```
-
-All references between these files use relative paths containing only SHA256 hashes, making the entire HLS structure portable across different Blossom servers.

+## Chunked blobs
+
+`draft` `optional`
+
+Breaking large blobs into smaller chunks for distribution
+
+### Chunking
+
+The client MAY break large blobs into any number or size of chunks. although its recommended to use the size `1Mb` or `4Mb` for small and large chunks
+
+Clients MUST NOT pad the remaining chunk, If clients need privacy they should use random chunk sizes and optionally encrypt the large blob
+
+### Publishing
+
+Clients should publish a `2001` kind event after chunking the file in order to store the list of chunks
+
+The events MUST contain an ordered list of `chunk` tags with the sha256 hashes of the chunks
+
+The `content` field MUST be a human readable description of the chunked file
+
+```json
+{
+  "tags": [
+    [ "chunk", "7e668b56a58c7891e0cf263ea3f093b75eebade23d663a45aa9920f347b3d671"],
+    [ "chunk", "9b9c44a91396f19fd8700986eb0586dff2dcccf96c75bc2caefef302bcd78da1"],
+    [ "chunk", "7a281548f1223664b855b10b08e59e84389ccabeb742517f6cd75eda2724a798"],

+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Metadata
+
+The `2001` event MAY include additional metadata tags to help other clients know the filename, mime type or servers to download from
+
+Metadata tags:
+  - `name` Filename
+  - `mime` Mime type of file
+  - `size` Total size in bytes of the file
+  - `server` (multiple) Recommended servers to download chunks from
+
+### Examples
+
