THE ZERO-FEE LEDGER TO TRACE ANY ASSET IN THE WORLD

Faster, cheaper, and zero-fee blockspace

The STORE zero-fee blockchain computer is composed of nodes, physical computers in the STORE Cloud, that are joined together via the BlockFinBFT consensus mechanism and incentivized by Dynamic Proof-of-Stake (DyPoS).

At the launch of STORE Chain, we estimate 2,500+ transactions per second and throughput to increase as transaction demand increases (adaptive throughput).*

The STORE VM will secure native smart contracts, oracles, and developer token issuance for NFTs, DeFi, and DeFi NFTs.

STORE Chain is secured with inflation making it zero-fee. When demand to utilize zero-fee blockspace exceeds available supply, predicable and escalating fees are charged to users through DyPoS Surge.

STORE is pioneering a zero-fee Web3.

ETA: Test network for STORE Chain and VM in 2023
Security audits begin with Jepsen in 2022

**If the price of $STORE is below the break-even price to mine STORE, then miners would be operating at a loss. STORE tracks this closely.

NOTE: Block rewards with STORE Chain will be up to 2% maximum inflation per year (20 Million $STORE). The additional 1% of inflation will incentivize blockchain usage while STORE Governance will set a transaction minimum to incentivize out spam. Learn more at http://storecloud.org/monetarypolicy.

THE WEB3 CLOUD TO STORE NFTs FOREVER

The high-performance Web3 cloud that is cheaper than AWS

STORE beats public clouds like Amazon AWS on pricing and competes on performance. STORE beats all Web3 protocols on pricing and performance, while unlocking app coins.

STORE Chain nodes and blockchain history run on STORE Cloud. Other protocols can run their infrastructure on STORE Cloud, too.

Web3 computing protocols like Ethereum are 339 million times more expensive to store data on than AWS and 1.58 billion times more expensive to run compute operations.

Governed STORE Cloud is 12% less expensive than AWS. It is cloud infrastructure governed by decentralized democracy instead of controlled by centralized tech superpowers.

STORE Governance earns a 25% margin on all web services.
‍
STORE Cloud gets cheaper as more is built on it.

Improve trust-minimization in Web3

Miners of any Web3 ecosystem can run blockchain nodes on trust-minimized STORE Cloud instead of centralized AWS.
‍
First Use Case: 2022

Store off-chain Web3 data, get a proof

Developers building DeFi applications, Web3 games, decentralized social networks, or other apps on other layer-one blockchains can store off-chain data in a trust-minimized way on STORE then generate proofs which attest to the trust-minimization of the data.

Web2 ➔ Web3 through governance tokens

Web2 apps can transition into Web3 by moving their storage and compute workloads to trust-minimized STORE Cloud while issuing a governance token onto chains like Ethereum. STORE provides the tooling for airdrops, for governance, and is the Cloud to power it all. Web2 apps can then be user-governed, all the way up to the board-level.

Solve NFT asset immutability

IP owners can build high-value IP on STORE, store them forever, prove they are stored forever, and then issue them as NFTs onto Ethereum, Solana, STORE Chain, and more. This provides superior immutability and storage for IP creators compared to an IPFS hash or Web2 URL.

NFT content units

STORE-NFT apps where each content unit and user ID is an instantly tradable NFT.
‍
Example: Decentralized tweets and user profiles as tradable NFTs - decentralized social

NFTs + Yield

STORE-NFT intellectual property where revenues from the NFT are tokenized and then can generate yield for the IP creator to fund future IP. A perpetual funding NFT.
‍
Example: A Hollywood movie is tokenized, generating yield for the screenwriter and/or studio to natively fund future sequels

ML and AI as NFTs

STORE-NFT devices where APIs and neural network data models are instantly tradable NFTs with other devices.
‍
Example: Devices build with each other’s algorithms in real-time

Programmable NFTs

Programmable NFTs can evolve with code, be programmed to respond to on-chain events, and can be programmed to respond to off-chain events through trust-minimized oracles.
‍
Programmable NFTs will power the metaverse. They can generate yield. The possibilities are endless.
