Proof of Storage

Definition

Proof of Storage is a cryptographic method that allows a verifier to confirm that a specific party is storing a given amount of data. This mechanism is crucial for decentralized storage networks, ensuring that providers fulfill their obligations without requiring constant monitoring. It establishes verifiable accountability for data persistence.
NuLink Secures Decentralized Applications Using Zero-Knowledge Proofs and Polynomial Commitments Abstract molecular structure featuring interconnected white spheres linked by metallic tendrils to clusters of shimmering blue crystalline shards. This visual metaphor represents a decentralized blockchain network, where the spheres symbolize nodes or validators, and the crystalline structures represent encrypted data blocks or cryptographic hashes. The intricate connections highlight the consensus mechanisms and interdependencies within distributed ledger technology, illustrating the robust and secure nature of crypto protocols. This arrangement evokes the concept of a distributed autonomous organization's foundational architecture.
