How Does Epik Protocol Implement the Filecoin Layer 2 Network

A few days ago, EpiK Protocol’s official website was updated and we also announced that the project was fully upgraded. Among them, EpiK Protocol, as an ecological project of Filecoin, has attracted much more attention from users. Based on the decentralized storage solution, EpiK integrates Filecoin’s technical advantages to build a Filecoin second-layer storage network. Next, let’s interpret the official statement in-depth, mainly discussing two issues:

1. EpiK knowledge graph conveys effective information for Filecoin

2. The significance of the existence of the second-layer network

Epik Knowledge Graph Delivers Effective Information for Filecoin

Decentralized storage network, Filecoin’s vision is to store the most important information of mankind, and this coincides with EpiK’s ultimate goal of building an eternal human knowledge base.

EpiK is a secure and trusted knowledge graph collaboration platform for decentralized co-construction, sharing, and mutual benefit. Knowledge graphs are well-known for the significance of AI. EpiK uploads high-quality and concentrated knowledge graphs and other high-quality data to the Filecoin network to a certain extent. Added effective information on the Filecoin network.

The Significance of the Existence of the Second-layer Network

There are two points that need to be made here: one is based on the cooperative relationship between the two; the other is based on the consideration of permanent storage.

Let me first talk about the cooperative relationship between the two. The establishment of the second-layer network is mainly to cooperate with Filecoin large file transmission. On the one hand, Filecoin network stores large files for general use, while those uploaded by knowledge graph experts are small files. Each upload to Filecoin consumes a lot of TPS, and EpiK is a network dedicated to storing knowledge graph files, so EpiK as Filecoin’s second-layer network is convenient to update the knowledge graph data in real-time. On the other hand, the small knowledge graph file follows the design specification of “only add but not change” for blockchain encryption and tamper-proof, and is a continuously uploaded log file, which is similar to the save screen recording function in the King of Glory game. It is necessary to open the saved file. However, it is time-consuming to continuously open files for a period of time. For this reason, EpiK network supports community users to organize these files into large files in the form of snapshots and transfer them to Filecoin storage, so that everyone does not need to open each small file directly. Relevant data can be obtained by replaying large files at one time. At the same time, those who upload snapshots will be rewarded by the EpiK Foundation.

Secondly, the existence of the second-layer network is based on permanent storage. The ultimate goal of EpiK is to build an eternal human knowledge base, and the decentralized storage function of the two-layer network realizes the permanent cache of knowledge graph data.

Knowledge graph construction is a huge project. Standing on the shoulders of giants, EpiK’s decentralized co-construction of a shared and mutually beneficial secure and trustworthy knowledge graph collaboration platform is broadening AI cognition and promoting weak labor by transforming human accumulated knowledge into knowledge graphs. Intelligence is evolving to strong artificial intelligence.
