Thanks Tim and Matt for the quick reply.

Most of the files are NxN connectivity matrices, where N could denote, for
instance, ROIs from different parcellation schemes or resting-state
functional networks.

Ok, so one option is to transform these matrices into cifti files and share
them through BALSA. On the one hand, this is a nice solution for it solves
the user term uses. On the other, it is a bit of a roundabout way to store
these files in the context of my manuscript. The matrices are used to
derive graph-theoretic measures about brain organization (rather than for
visualization purposes), so researchers interested in that would need to
convert the cifti files back to CSV.

More generally, do you suggest any methods to share HCP-derived files in an
arbitrary format?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Best,
Caio
