There are already torrents of the archives. But supposing scihub was taken down it's pretty non trivial to get from the archive back to a working site with search functionality. For one thing, none of Sci-Hub's code is available.

By the way, Sci-Hub has stopped adding new articles to the database for a few months now (background: https://www.reddit.com/r/scihub/comments/mk46x4/scihub_v_els...).

It would be great to develop a truly decentralised solution. Having a database of individual torrent links for each paper might be a start.
