  1. Storage & Retrieval Process

Data Upload

Once the data is encrypted, it is uploaded to the IPFS network, where it is stored across multiple nodes. Each file uploaded to the network is assigned a unique Content Identifier (CID), which acts as a pointer to the file’s location on the IPFS network.

Key points in the upload process include:

  • Redundancy: Files are stored across multiple nodes, ensuring that even if one node goes offline, the data remains accessible.

  • Immutability: Once a file is uploaded, it cannot be altered or deleted. The CID remains the same, ensuring that the data’s integrity is guaranteed.

  • Payment: The user pays ENCT tokens to incentivize validators to store the file. The tokens are used to reward validators who provide reliable storage services.
