Swarm is one of the latest projects to be built on Ethereum and is perhaps the central piece of the entire decentralised ecosystem. According to its website, Swarm is a censorship-resistant, permissionless, decentralised storage and communication infrastructure. The main purpose of Swarm is to be a decentralised store for dApp code, user data, blockchain data, and state data. Swarm sets out to provide various base layer services for Web 3.0. Services include node-to-node messaging, media streaming, decentralised database services, and scalable state-channel infrastructure for decentralised service economies. An intro to Swarm Before I dive deeper into Swarm's technical structure, I should define how data is stored in this decentralised file-storing system. Swarm's base-layer infrastructure provides the services mentioned above byThe post An overview of Ethereum Swarm: A decentralised filestore appeared first on Coin Rivet.
