Decentralized Storage
Decentralized storage is a type of data storage that is not controlled by a single entity or authority. Instead, it is distributed across a network of computers, making it more secure and resistant to censorship or data loss.
One example of decentralized storage is the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), which allows users to store and access files in a distributed network. Unlike traditional centralized storage systems, where data is stored on a single server or data center, IPFS stores files across multiple nodes, ensuring that the data is always available and cannot be easily manipulated or deleted.
Decentralized storage is a key component of Web3 technology, which aims to create a more open, transparent, and decentralized internet. By using decentralized storage, Web3 applications can ensure that user data is protected and not controlled by a single entity or authority.
