💡 Background
Developing a fully decentralized, cost-efficient, and permanent solution to store files like documents or videos remains an unsolved challenge in the Blockchain ecosystem. In recent years, various approaches like Layer 2, multi-chain, off-chain, or novel on-chain architectures have been proposed to overcome this obstacle. The goal of this project is to summarize the storage solutions that were actually implemented and are now ready for productive use in decentralized applications. The different concepts shall be compared on the basis of technical and environmental aspects like energy consumption, cost-efficiency, ACID properties, and the degree of decentralization. With support from us, the most promising approaches shall be implemented and tested in a specific storage scenario to evaluate the performance under real conditions.
👩🏼💻Who We Are (Conshax + Chair for Strategy and Organization)
We are the ones that build new ways of monetizing content for content creators. Also, we provide them a new way of connecting to their community. www.conshax.com
The Chair for Strategy and Organization is focused on research with impact. This means we do not want to repeat old ideas and base our research solely on the research people did 10 years ago. Instead, we currently research topics that will shape the future. Topics such as Agile Organizations and Digital Disruption, Blockchain Technology, Creativity and Innovation, Digital Transformation and Business Model Innovation, Diversity, Education: Education Technology and Performance Management, HRTech, Leadership, and Teams. We are always early in noticing trends, technologies, strategies, and organizations that shape the future, which has its ups and downs.
