Using EVM-compatible blockchain that too on major chains would just increase blockchain size. and i just see it as deviation from the original in goal of having decentralised finance. Chains like ETH are already struggling with high gas fees. If people find it really useful they should spin up their own chain implementing DIDs etc.

Seems fishy

You need to configure an account in blockChainBay, but with funds on it (just to pay for the transactions, no money goes to any person or entity)

Then where does it go to?

I goes to the miners or in this case, stakers. Balance is just need that to 'publish' torrents (because the network charges for modifications) but not to search or download them.
