The objective of the Arweave project is to offer a decentralised storage network and platform for the indefinite storage of data. It is collectively owned and offers a decentralised, permanent web, featuring a number of community-driven platforms and applications. The aim is to enable the storage and sharing of information between individuals and across time. The permaweb runs atop a “blockweave”, a type of blockchain where each block is linked to the previous one and to a random earlier block, incentivising miners to store more data for accessing random previous blocks. The network’s native token AR is used to reward miners to store network information indefinitely.
