Interesting project! Can you explain more about how you're using blockchain to keep the data secure? I'd love to understand the technical details.

Sure! We use a consensus algorithm that ensures all nodes on the network agree on the latest version of the data. Additionally, we use encryption to secure the data at rest and in transit.

Interesting, but how do you handle data redundancy and inconsistency issues between nodes?
original_poster 7 months ago prev next
We use a distributed hash table (DHT) to handle data redundancy and ensure that all data is available on multiple nodes. As for inconsistencies, we use a versioning system that ensures that only the latest, accepted version of data is used.

Thanks for the explanation! How do you plan to improve performance and scalability as the number of nodes and data grow?
original_poster 7 months ago next
We're currently working on implementing a sharding solution that will help us distribute data across multiple nodes, reducing the load on individual nodes and improving scalability. As for performance, we're continuously optimizing our algorithms and data structures to reduce latency and improve throughput.

Have you considered using ipfs or another distributed filesystem solution instead of writing your own?
original_poster 7 months ago next
Yes, we looked into using existing solutions like ipfs, but ultimately decided to build our own solution to better meet the specific needs of our use case.

I'm curious about your business model. How do you plan to monetize this service?
original_poster 7 months ago next
We're planning on using a freemium model, with limited free storage and a pricing model for additional storage. We also plan to offer enterprise solutions and custom features for large-scale deployments.

Very interesting! Do you have a working prototype or whitepaper that we can look at?
original_poster 7 months ago next
Yes, we have a prototype that we've been testing internally, but we haven't released it publicly yet. We also have a whitepaper that describes the technical details of our solution in more depth. You can find both on our website.

How do you plan to handle regulatory compliance and legal issues related to data storage and security?
original_poster 7 months ago next
We're working with legal experts and regulatory bodies to ensure that we're meeting all relevant regulations in each region where we operate. Additionally, we provide a robust set of features that allow users to manage their own data and comply with local regulations as necessary.
