Filecoin Foundation explores space for decentralized storage system
Filecoin Foundation president Marta Belcher explained that centralized architecture can face issues like files getting corrupted when in space.
At the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland, Cointelegraph ambassador and editor-at-large Kristina Lucrezia Cornèr spoke with Filecoin Foundation president and chair Marta Belcher about the organization’s efforts to demonstrate the use of decentralized technologies in space communications.
In addition, the executive also pointed out some issues with centralized architecture when facing radiation and space debris. Belcher explained that storing files in space is challenging because factors like radiation could corrupt the files. With a decentralized protocol, Belcher believes this wouldn’t be a problem as the files will be pulled from anywhere. “You can have lots of copies. And if one file gets corrupted, it doesn’t matter.”
