AR coin is the native functional token of Arweave, a distributed storage platform. The Arweave project is currently developing a basic network based on blockchain storage. The network will host permaweb, which is actually a permanent , a distributed network of applications and platforms driven by many communities. AR coin is called its native functional token. It can not only be used as a reward for miners, but it can also be used for various transaction fees in the Arweave platform. Many investors want to know whether this AR coin is valuable? Let the editor of the currency circle analyze the prospects and value of this AR coin for everyone.

## Are AR coins valuable?

AR coins have value. Arweave was founded in August 2017 and graduated from the Berlin Techstars startup acceleration program in April 2018. As a file storage protocol based on blockchain, Arweave has the characteristics of one-time payment and permanent storage of files. Arweave provides a "Permaweb permanent network" solution. Internet users can implement it on the blockchain through the Arweave browser plug-in. Permanently store digital files and data such as web pages, emails, social media posts, and more.

Arweave previously used proof of access (POA) to incentivize miners to store history forever. On February 25, 2021, Arweave completed the upgrade of the new competitive consensus SPoRA. SPoRA is a new competitive consensus mechanism based on the Arweave network to prohibit miners from retrieving data on demand from the network and reduce network energy consumption. It can fundamentally increase the number of data copies stored in the network to 100-1000 times the order of magnitude. , while moving more computation on that network to storage.

Arweave adopts a profit sharing token mechanism (ProfitSharingToken, PST), which can fundamentally improve the way developers create network services. In this mechanism, a permanent application developed based on the Arweave protocol can issue a "Profit Sharing Token PST". Whenever a user interacts with the application and generates a transaction on the Arweave network, a specific PST token will be issued. Holders send tips denominated in Arweave’s native token AR, and the allocated amount will be based on the holding share ratio of that PST token. Currently, there are more than 250 applications created based on the Arweave protocol, including content distribution platforms, social platforms, file storage solutions, developer tools, archiving robots, decentralized exchanges, etc.

## Comprehensive analysis of AR currency prospects and value

Unlike IPFS, which focuses on decentralized storage, and Storj, which focuses on enterprise storage services, Arweave focuses on permanent storage and fills specific market needs. Fundamentally, Arwaeve solves the problems of limited free speech, excessive censorship, and easy access to data on the Internet today. The problem of tampering.

In terms of specific applications, especially in areas with limited network access, Internet users do not need to download a new browser. They can use the Arweave browser plug-in to permanently store digital files such as web pages, emails, and social media posts on the blockchain. and data to preserve history completely and truly.

Capital managing partner Kyle Samani mentioned in the article "Web3 Stack Panorama", "No matter where the underlying data is located, the services provided by on-chain middleware, including the Arweave storage protocol, will serve as a single abstraction layer for developers. Services will accelerate the development of the entire Web3 ecosystem."

I hope that the above comprehensive analysis of the prospects and value of AR currency can be helpful to all investors. The Arweave network is neither operational nor owned by any one company, and because it is a completely decentralized network there is no single point of failure. This means that everyone can provide a certain amount of storage space and can use the network to store their own data. In addition, the data provided by Arweave and its storage solutions can also replicate and distribute data on hundreds of computers around the world. Not only that, but the data saved on the network will not be lost due to some natural disasters.
