BNB Chain, a collaborative blockchain ecosystem housing the world’s most expansive smart contract blockchain, unveiled the Greenfield Mainnet to the pubic launch. Greenfield emerges as a groundbreaking decentralized data storage network with a direct bridge to BNB Smart Chain (BSC), overseeing user rights, bucket formulation, and file eradication to revolutionize user-data interaction.
Termed BNB Greenfield, this blockchain is storage-centric, interacting with a decentralized assembly of storage providers (SPs).
Performance Excellence: Greenfield shatters industry norms for uplink and downlink bandwidth, leveraging its innovative SP architecture to deliver swift upload and download rates. Stress tests revealed an uplink bandwidth of 30M/sec and a downlink bandwidth of 300M/sec, with each SP capable of uploading 30 files/sec. Intrinsic Access Control: Users upload data, setting unique access and usage permissions, after which the SPs securely store this data off-chain, ensuring robust redundancy and backups.
Cross-Chain Programmability: BNB Chain users can craft complementary data products and services thanks to Greenfield blockchain's cross-chain programmability. Data Monetization & Trading: Greenfield facilitates the establishment of data marketplaces for the creation, listing, trading, and selling of data by users. During its testing phase, the network executed over 200,000 on-chain transactions and connected to 150,000 distinct wallet addresses.
Beyond core data storage, Greenfield unfolds a spectrum of use cases for a diverse user base including developers, data managers, business proprietors, and creators:
Decentralized Hosting: Secure, censorship-resistant hosting for websites and applications. Use Case Illustration: 4EVERLAND exploits BNB Smart Chain’s robust infrastructure for cloud computing, merging storage, computing, and network core functionalities seamlessly.
Knowledge Economy Platform: A platform facilitating "pay for knowledge" via smart contracts for content creation and access. Use Case Illustration: Codex Field utilizes BNB Greenfield for decentralized code management and code rights monetization. IP Infrastructure for AIGC Content: Blockchain-driven infrastructure for open tracking, licensing, and remixing of content. Use Case Illustration: NFPrompt enables users to convert creative prompts into AI-Generated NFTs via BNB Greenfield. Data Management Solutions: Secure storage for personal data, code, and AI datasets with decentralized sharing and control. Use Case Illustration: RIDO offers dynamic data storage capabilities for Greenfield.
Content Monetization Ecosystem: A decentralized framework for social networking, blogging, and more for content creators and projects. Use Case Illustration: StoryChain employs Language AI and Image AI to generate and monetize content on BNB Greenfield. Senior Solution Architect at BNB Chain, Arnaud Bauer, extolled BNB Greenfield as a pivotal shift in Web3 data ownership and economy, providing a decentralized Cloud services alternative. Unlike centralized options, BNB Greenfield places data control in users' hands, reducing breach and data loss risks. The Testnet phase and recent BNB Chain Hackathon saw numerous innovative dApps demonstrating decentralized file storage's user-centric potential.
BNB Greenfield’s framework in the Web3 epoch simplifies data ownership, usage, and monetization, both within and beyond the Web3 realm.
