About Arweave

AR, or Arweave, is a cryptocurrency that powers a unique blockchain-based storage solution. Unlike traditional cloud storage, Arweave offers a decentralized, permanent data storage network called the 'permaweb.' This means files, documents, and even entire websites can be stored forever, ensuring they remain accessible and tamper-proof. AR tokens are used to pay for storage on the network, creating a sustainable ecosystem where users and miners are incentivized to participate. Key use cases include archiving important historical records, preserving digital art, and enabling censorship-resistant applications. With its focus on permanence and decentralization, Arweave is shaping the future of data storage in the digital age.

Disclosures

Arweave risk

This material is for informational purposes only and is not exhaustive of all risks associated with trading Arweave. All crypto assets are risky, there are general risks in investing in Arweave. These include volatility risk, liquidity risk, demand risk, forking risk, cryptography risk, regulatory risk, concentration risk & cyber security risk. This is not intended to provide (i) investment advice or an investment recommendation; (ii) an offer or solicitation to buy, sell, or hold crypto assets; or (iii) financial, accounting, legal or tax advice. Profits may be subject to capital gains tax. You should carefully consider whether trading or holding crypto assets is suitable for you in light of your financial situation. Please review the Risk Summary for additional information.

Investment Risk

The performance of most crypto assets can be highly volatile, with their value dropping as quickly as it can rise. You should be prepared to lose all the money you invest in crypto assets.

Lack of Protections

Crypto assets are largely unregulated and neither the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) nor the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) will protect you in the event something goes wrong with your crypto asset investments.

Liquidity Risk

There is no guarantee that investments in crypto assets can be easily sold at any given time.

Complexity

Investments in crypto assets can be complex, making it difficult to understand the risks associated with the investment. You should do your own research before investing. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Concentration Risk

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Putting all your money into a single type of investment is risky. Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on anyone to do well. A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments.

Five questions to ask yourself

  1. Am I comfortable with the level of risk? Can I afford to lose my money?
  2. Do I understand the investment and could I get my money out easily?
  3. Are my investments regulated?
  4. Am I protected if the investment provider or my adviser goes out of business?
  5. Should I get financial advice?

From Warehouse to Factory: How Irys is Reshaping the Decentralized Storage Paradigm After years of navigating the storage sector, I've seen too many projects rise and fall. But recently, seeing Irys's technical architecture honestly gave me a long-lost sense of excitement. This is not just another "decentralized storage" story; it's a true paradigm shift. Let me start with a few comparisons: 1. Comparison of Mainstream Storage Solutions Filecoin vs Irys: From Warehouse to Factory After using Filecoin for a few years, the biggest pain point is that "once stored, it just sleeps." Contracts expire after 540 days, retrieving data takes hours, and the contract can't access the stored data at all. It's like renting a warehouse where you put things in and can never move them again. Irys completely overturns this logic: Short-term + permanent storage in parallel, flexible choices Instant access, with latency low enough to ignore EVM contracts can directly query, write back, and execute data Price anchored to hard drive costs, with permanent storage at just 0.03/GB This is not a warehouse; this is a factory. Data can be processed, called, and executed directly as it comes in. Arweave vs Irys: From Archive to Active Data Center Arweave is indeed powerful for permanent storage, but its limitations are also very clear: it requires one-time payment for permanent storage, pricing fluctuates with the AR token (16 times more expensive than Irys), and retrieving large files is noticeably slower, with logic execution relying on external oracles. Irys's multi-ledger architecture directly addresses these issues: Latency is 100 times lower than Arweave Price anchored to hardware costs, allowing enterprises to budget Native execution, requiring no external dependencies I particularly like their design philosophy: data should not be a dormant asset but an active participant. Story Protocol vs Irys: Metadata vs Entity Data Story creates IP licensing protocols, but essentially what is on-chain is still metadata, while the actual asset body remains in off-chain systems like IPFS. The authorization logic relies on external modules, and verification requires third-party endorsement. Irys directly puts the asset body on-chain: The data itself is verifiable Authorization, access, and monetization logic are directly embedded in the data structure IrysVM executes natively, with no external dependencies These are two completely different positions: Story is an application layer protocol, while Irys is infrastructure. Walrus vs Irys: Modular vs Integrated Walrus is built on Sui, inheriting Sui's execution mechanism, but it also brings complexity: storage must be manually renewed after 2 years, the dual-token model increases understanding costs, and users need to manually transfer data. Irys, as an independent L1, integrates everything natively: Storage, execution, and consensus are designed as one 10 replicas ensure safety even if 90% of the network is lost Miners automatically verify indexes, and contracts reach data directly through IrysVM 2. Irys's Innovative Value and Future Outlook The real value I see Behind these technical details is a redefinition of the concept of "data." Traditional storage projects treat data as a "static asset"—store it and occasionally take it out for use. But in the AI era and the DePIN era, data needs to be a "dynamic participant"—able to execute logic autonomously, interact with other data, and drive application operations. Irys's programmable data chain reminds me of the early days of Ethereum. At that time, people didn't understand why "transfers" needed to be upgraded to "smart contracts," but now the DeFi ecosystem has proven the value of this paradigm shift. Today's Irys might just be the "smart contract moment" in the storage field. Data is no longer just stored; it will move on its own. This imaginative space is much larger than a simple "decentralized cloud drive." Of course, no matter how good the technology is, it needs ecological validation. But from the current development momentum, I am quite looking forward to this leap in storage civilization. @irys_xyz @cn_irys_xyz

Arweave FAQ

Arweave (AR) is a blockchain-based project that operates as a decentralized storage network. It introduces a unique platform where users can securely and indefinitely store vast amounts of data. By leveraging blockchain technology, Arweave ensures data immutability, privacy, and long-term accessibility.

Arweave presents several notable advantages compared to traditional storage solutions. One key benefit is the requirement of a single upfront fee for data storage. Once the fee is paid, the stored data remains permanently accessible without the need for recurring payments. This provides a cost-effective and hassle-free storage option. Additionally, Arweave guarantees the safety and immutability of the stored data, offering peace of mind for users concerned about data integrity and security.

Easily buy AR tokens on the OKX cryptocurrency platform. Available trading pairs in the OKX spot trading terminal include AR/USDT and AR/USDC.

Dive deeper into Arweave

As the popularity of blockchain soared due to its secure and immutable nature, Arweave seized the opportunity to create a platform that offers a unique approach to data storage. The project's innovative concept holds the promise of virtually limitless storage capabilities, opening up new possibilities for individuals and businesses alike. 

What is Arweave

Arweave is a decentralized storage network that aims to revolutionize data storage by providing an indefinite storage solution. At the heart of Arweave's ecosystem lies the concept of the "permaweb," which represents a permanent and decentralized web infrastructure. Through the permaweb, Arweave hosts a multitude of community-driven applications and platforms.

The Arweave team

Arweave was founded by two PhD candidates at the University of Kent, Sam Williams and William Jones. Sam Williams brought his expertise in decentralized and distributed systems to the project, while William Jones specialized in neural networking and graph theory. Although Williams made the decision to leave his studies and dedicate himself fully to Arweave, Jones chose to complete his PhD before pursuing other ventures.

How does Arweave work

Arweave operates on a unique technology called Blockweave, which forms the foundation of its permaweb. Unlike traditional blockchain systems, Blockweave connects each block to two others: one that comes before it and another chosen randomly from earlier blocks. This design incentivizes miners to store more data by requiring them to access previous blocks in order to receive rewards.

Arweave’s native token: AR 

Arweave's native token, AR, plays a crucial role within the Arweave network. The cryptocurrency was launched in late May 2020 with a maximum supply of 66 million AR tokens and a total supply of 63.19 million. The circulating supply currently stands at 33.39 million.

AR is readily available for trading on numerous decentralized exchanges (DEX), providing users with easy access to participate in the Arweave ecosystem. Additionally, AR is listed and actively traded on nearly 50 prominent centralized exchanges, including OKX. This broad availability and exchange support contribute to the liquidity and accessibility of AR, facilitating its use within the Arweave network and enabling users to engage with the platform's innovative decentralized storage solutions.

How to stake AR

One popular way to stake AR is through OKX Earn. OKX Earn offers a one percent APY with a flexible staking term. Through staking AR, you can earn passive rewards. You may also unstake AR at any time. 

AR token use cases

AR token, the native cryptocurrency of the Arweave network, plays a crucial role in facilitating the storage and permanence of data. Unlike traditional Web2 storage platforms such as Google Cloud or Amazon Web Services that require recurring payments, Arweave operates on a one-time, up-front fee model.

By using AR tokens, users can securely store their data on the Arweave network, ensuring its permanence, privacy, and immutability. Once the data is stored, it remains safe and accessible indefinitely, making Arweave a unique platform for individuals and organizations seeking a decentralized and permanent storage option.

AR token distribution

AR’s distribution is as follows:

  • 38.5 percent was sold from the Genesis Block supply.
  • 2.9 percent was allocated to project advisors.
  • 13 percent was set aside for the project team, with a fifth of this allocation being released annually over a period of five years. 
  • 19.1 percent was allotted for further development of the Arweave ecosystem.
  • 26.5 percent was reserved for future financing of the project, with a fifth of this allocation being released annually over the course of five years.

Arweave and the future of online storage

With Arweave, users can securely store their data in a permanent and tamper-proof manner, ensuring its long-term integrity. This innovative approach to online storage eliminates the need for traditional Web2 solutions, such as recurring payments on centralized platforms. On top of that, with its focus on decentralization and immutability, Arweave is poised to transform the landscape of online storage and pave the way for a new era of data permanence and accessibility.
