How does Arweave work?
First and foremost, we must learn about Arweave's permaweb, which the firm describes as a "global, community-owned web that anyone can contribute to or get paid to maintain." Like any other blockchain network, Arweave is made up of a collection of blocks. These blocks contain all the data of a website and/or application and make it accessible on the permaweb.

Now, with traditional blockchains, every block contains a link to the previous block, creating a chain-like strucuture. However, with Arweave, each block is linked to a preceding block and a second block from the network's history.
This second block is known as its "recall block" and the overall structure of the network is known as a blockweave, as opposed to a blockchain. This unique structure is how the project gets its name.
The block structure is also pivotal to Arweave's Proof-of-Access (PoA) consensus mechanism. Unlike Bitcoin, where network participants need to solve complex mathematical problems to add new blocks, Arweave requires each computer taking part in the network to check whether they have access to a randomly selected recall block. Only if they have access to the recall block can they add a new bundle of transactions and receive a reward in the form of the platform's native AR cryptocurrency. Therefore, PoA incentivises long-term data storage as miners need to access older, random blocks from the blockweave's history to mine new blocks and receive mining rewards.

idscapt: Bitcoin as the ideal launching point for DeFi

  #idscapt : #Bitcoin as the ideal launching point for #DeFi By taking the original Bitcoin technology and adding key features on top of it, DeFiChain has created what it believes is an approach that will lead to a way forward for an industry that has been stuck in somewhat of a rut. There are a number of different issues at play in DeFi currently, chief among them being a lack of transparency, security vulnerabilities, platforms with faulty economics and a level of complexity that can be overwhelming to newcomers. DeFiChain’s approach solves many of those issues by taking the industry back to basics in order to build something better. A vibrant ecosystem has been built around the network that features all the best of what DeFi has to offer, including staking and farming mechanisms where users can earn yields on the liquidity that they provide. DeFiChain also has numerous opportunities for platform creators, given the flexibility afforded by its decentralized governance. Those opp...
