🗄️ Decentralized Proof Storage
This update marks a key innovation in Subnet 2 - in partnership with AR.IO we are launching permanent and decentralized proof storage!
Validators now upload important proofs (either externally requested through the API or proof of weights) to Arweave, through Subnet 2's new Proof Publishing System (PPS)
This reduces storage load substantially for validators. Instead of storing full proofs locally, validators only store minimal metadata about the location of their proofs within Arweave.
Through Inference Labs' AR.IO gateway node, proofs are instantly available and publicly accessible for all. (See here for an example https://ar.omron.ai/WrRiQb8BIKcirBJQbW24augJUKmBloStfM-n_i7EcEg)
Integrate permanent and decentralized storage for proofs, powered by AR.IO, Turbo and Arweave.
