Description-en: Blockchain-based marketplace for file storage
Sia is a decentralized cloud storage platform aimed at giving users
control of their data. Data is split into hundreds of erasure coded
pieces and encrypted locally, and then each piece is uploaded to a
separate host. A blockchain is used to create cryptographic contracts
ensuring that hosts will only get paid if they actually store the
data. Out of hundreds of hosts, only a fraction are required to
recover the original file.
.
Anybody can join the network as a host and get income from the
storage they contribute. This openness allows Sia to build and take
advantage of a global network of small datacenters. Combined with
advanced algorithms for storing and retrieving data, Sia is poised to
be a highly competitive cloud storage platform. More information
about the technology can be found on our website and in the 'doc'
folder of the repo.
.
Sia is ready for use with small sums of money and non-critical files,
but until the network has a more proven track record, we advise
against using it as a sole means of storing important data.
