Ashare, the blockchain innovator

Ashare, an autonomous shared storage network based on blockchain technology, shares idle storage resources around the world, uses blockchain technology to store files in shards, builds decentralized cloud storage, and creates Sharing Economy 2.0.

Blockchain, a new application model of computer technologies such as distributed data storage, peer-to-peer transmission, consensus mechanism, and encryption algorithm , has received widespread attention since Bitcoin became well-known to the public. Its unique characteristics such as decentralization, immutability, and trustlessness have built its unique value network, and it is believed that it can be combined with many fields to solve many difficult problems in the field.

Ashare uses blockchain technology to activate the idle hard disk storage space around the world to store valuable data of the entire Internet. Ashare is compatible with and supports the current mainstream and emerging P2P file protocols, such as IPFS, MAGNET, BitP2P, and PPK, to ensure efficient and stable network file transmission. The SDPOS consensus mechanism is defined and designed to perfectly integrate the block generation mechanism of the blockchain with distributed storage (voting ranking and storage ranking participate in mining). The ACG (Autonomy Cluster Group) protocol is defined to ensure the stability of downloading a single file fragment. The use of nanowire technology allows Ashare to dynamically expand capacity and improve packaging efficiency to meet the user's storage experience.

In this process, Ashare has innovated to address the existing deficiencies of blockchain technology. There are 4 original technologies in total, and one technology has been patented. Blockchain technology currently has the problem of weak concurrency. Block time, block size and network bandwidth restrict the development and popularization of blockchain technology. Ashare has created the original nanowire technology. Its model uses the hash algorithm to generate blocks in parallel on multiple chains, and then performs serial verification on multi-chain merged transactions to improve the efficiency of the entire network and effectively prevent the double-spending problem. The overall design concept of nanowire technology is a hash multi-chain structure; the input of an address is fixed on one chain within a certain period of time; the allocation rule of the chain corresponding to the address adopts a consistent hash algorithm; strictly verifies the legitimacy of the input; tolerates non-real-time synchronization of the output; and automatically expands capacity dynamically. This technology is currently under patent application.

Secondly, Ashare adopts the original SDPOS (Delegated Proof-of-Stake & Storage) authorized voting proof and storage verification consensus mechanism, which is a redefinition of the consensus mechanism based on blockchain distributed storage. The basic principle behind SDPOS is to give shareholders a key that can unlock the voting rights corresponding to their shares, rather than giving them a shovel for mining; maximize shareholders' profits; minimize the cost of maintaining network security; maximize the efficiency of the network; minimize the cost of running the network (bandwidth, CPU, etc.); and participate in bookkeeping by providing high-quality storage services.

Third, Ashare has created the ACG protocol. The Autonomy Cluster Group Protocol is a protocol based on the P2P protocol that solves the problem of unstable file shard downloads in a decentralized network environment. All shard download nodes of a file form a file autonomous cluster group, which is sorted by the hash value of the IP to form a ring topology. The heartbeat monitoring of the next node is performed regularly. When it is detected that a node cannot be connected, the notification of the surrounding nodes to join is initiated, and the new node performs file shard replication to ensure the stability of single file downloads. At the same time, an application for storage service fee issuance can be made once a day, and the transaction needs to include multiple signatures of members and the private key sent for the service fee.

Ashare also created the ShardingX technology. The specific implementation principle of the ShardingX sharding algorithm is to select and download the corresponding file shards based on the hash of the address of the ordinary account. Each file shard is stored in N copies in total, and the ACG protocol is used to ensure automatic replication of file shards. This design ensures that files can be retrieved at any time.

Through the above four technological innovations, Ashare not only perfectly realizes the combination of blockchain and storage, activates the idle hard disk storage space around the world, builds decentralized cloud storage, but also promotes the development of blockchain technology and makes an indelible contribution to the development of blockchain technology. From this point of view, Ashare is also an innovator of blockchain technology.
