Think of decentralized storage like having multiple copies of your diary hidden in different secret places, with only you holding the special key.​ Instead of keeping everything in one spot (like traditional storage), your data is split up and stored across many locations.​

  • Your information stays private and secure
  • Only you control access to your data
  • No single point of failure
  • Similar to having multiple backups

This approach ensures your messages and data remain safe from unauthorized access while staying accessible to you.​ SendingMe implements this technology to protect user communications.​

Web2 vs Web3: The Chat Ownership Revolution

**The fundamental shift from renting to owning your digital conversations** Web2 platforms treat your chats as rented space - you're essentially borrowing access to your own conversations. The platform controls, monitors, and can revoke your access at any time. Web3 flips this model: - Your chats become **your property** - You maintain full control and ownership - No platform can take away your conversations - True digital sovereignty over your communications This represents a broader transformation in how we think about digital assets. Just as Web3 gaming shifted from "play to escape" to "play to own," messaging is evolving from temporary access to permanent ownership. **The implications are significant:** - Your conversation history can't be deleted by corporate decisions - You control who has access to your data - Your digital relationships become truly yours This ownership model extends beyond just chats to encompass all your digital interactions and data.
