How the DIG Network Works
The DIG Network (DIGnet) enables the creation, propagation, and consumption of DataStores—bundles of data transferred between peers on the network. The system is designed around three main goals:
The DIG Network (DIGnet) enables the creation, propagation, and consumption of DataStores—bundles of data transferred between peers on the network. The system is designed around three main goals:
A self-contained command-line tool for managing DataStores, which doesn’t require a Chia client to operate. The DIG CLI allows developers and publishers to:Initiate new DataStores.Commit data to DataStores.Push DataStores to the DIG Network.
A peer on the P2P network that propagates and serves data when requested. DIG Nodes play a crucial role in:
Hosting DataStores: Storing and serving data to other peers and end-users.
Propagating Updates: Ensuring that changes to DataStores are distributed across the network.
Maintaining Network Health: Contributing to the resilience and robustness of the DIG Network.
The DIG Network thrives on collaboration, open-source development, and active community participation. We invite everyone to join us in building the future of decentralized data infrastructure. Whether you're a developer, enthusiast, or just someone interested in the DIG Network, there are various ways to get involved and contribute.
The DIG Network is here to transform our digital sovereignty over the data we consume and publish, giving us unprecedented control and freedom in a decentralized world. It's not just about content delivery—it's about reclaiming ownership and trust in the digital age. Buckle up; it's going to be a hell of a ride.
