arweave VS unlock

For example, decentralized data storage projects like Filecoin, Arweave, and Sia posted 50-100% user growth, providing blockchain-powered alternatives to AWS, Google Cloud, and Dropbox for distributed app data security.

There are a few solutions:

https://www.lighthouse.storage/

To me, they seem like the most useful stuff coming out of the blockchain industry.

Familiar DePIN initiatives include Helium, a Decentralized Wireless Network from 2019, Filecoin or Arweave for Cloud Storage.

Arweave is a permanent and decentralized web inside an open ledger.

The metadata in question is called “tags” on the Arweave blockchain. Tags are a list of keys and values you can add to your transactions to give the reader of that transaction additional information about it. They aren’t pre-defined by the protocol; you can add custom tags. But there are several specifications that try to standardize common tags.

Arweave

IPFS isn't the right use case for a dropbox clone. It behaves like a CDN with no persistence guarantees.

Arweave is better suited to archival storage. There are options for participants to ban particular types of content which may be illegal to host in their jurisdiction. This was designed to prevent the spread of CP, terrorism related info, etc. but that means it is also susceptible to DCMA issues too.

Arweave is a community owned, decentralized and permanent data storage protocol. You can check it out here.

Another choice is Arweave.

Unlock is a great decentralized tool that doesn't require members to be familiar with web3 to get started.

This is exactly how something like Unlock Protocol works.

I'll name you several.

Copied from another reply I made, here's some projects to check out:

- Lens Protocol [https://lens.xyz/ (one example implementation: https://lenster.xyz/)] is an early social network built on top of Polygon.

- Farcaster [https://farcaster.xyz/] is another one, that takes a more hybrid approach of using Ethereum for trustless identity, but stores social stuff in a "sufficiently decentralized" way.

- ENS [https://ens.domains/] is a universal username system.

- Unlock Protocol [https://unlock-protocol.com/] uses NFTs for tradeable subscriptions, event tickets, etc.

- Radicle [https://radicle.xyz/] is a decentralized Github basically, that (optionally) uses Ethereum to store the Git HEAD of a "project" essentially.

- Arweave [https://www.arweave.org/] stores files permanently using a cool "endowment" mechanism. Currently, the network has secured its storage for like 1000 years in theory.

If you haven't seen it, you were not interested in looking and I doubt that any "evangelist" is going to change your mind.

Anyway, if you are honestly open to change your mind, go take a look at ENS domains [0] and unlock protocol [1]. Both of these are applications that use NFTs "properly", and allow us to do things that are currently possible only with a central authority.

[0]: https://ens.domains

[1]: https://unlock-protocol.com

If you want to go with the crypto route, that's the main goal of Unlock Protocol. It's basically one of the first use cases (beyond ENS domains) where NFTs actually make sense.

Look at Unlock Protocol (https://unlock-protocol.com/) and Lit (https://litprotocol.com/) for token gated content

All their code is public, https://github.com/unlock-protocol/unlock, you just need to follow the MIT license https://github.com/unlock-protocol/unlock/blob/master/LICENSE
