Motivation

The motivation behind Zigzach stems from the growing demand for decentralized storage solutions in the Web3 era. As the adoption of blockchain technology and decentralized applications (DApps) continues to expand, there is a need for a reliable and incentivized network that ensures the secure and efficient storage and retrieval of files.

Traditional centralized storage solutions have limitations in terms of privacy, security, and control. Web3 applications require a more decentralized and resilient infrastructure to store and access their data. Zigzach aims to address these challenges by providing a decentralized storage marketplace that not only ensures the reliability of file storage but also incentivizes participants to participate in the network.

By creating a peer-to-peer network of storage providers, Zigzach eliminates the reliance on a single centralized entity for storage. This distributed approach brings several advantages such as increased data privacy, reduced vulnerability to attacks, and improved data availability. Users can store their files on multiple providers, ensuring redundancy and fault tolerance.

By introducing economic incentives, Zigzach encourages storage providers to offer their resources and maintain high-quality service. Providers are motivated to store files reliably over time, as they are rewarded based on their storage performance and availability. This incentivized model fosters a competitive marketplace, driving down costs and increasing the overall efficiency of the network.
