In Web2 (the traditional internet), data privacy is a significant concern. Our data is stored in the cloud and controlled by large tech companies.

However, in Web3 (the decentralized internet), our data is encrypted and distributed across decentralized nodes. Since there is no central authority, our data is less susceptible to theft by hackers. However, decentralization alone does not guarantee data privacy. Data stored on the blockchain are transparent and can be viewed by anyone on the blockchain.

To address this issue, Web3 developers are exploring data-privacy-enhancing technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) and homomorphic encryption. These technologies allow secure data sharing without exposing the actual data itself. However, ZKPs can be slow in practice, as seen with Filecoin, which stores and retrieves data. Some Filecoin miners even store junk data to maximize rewards, which is not environmentally friendly.

Foggie Max, the DePIN server, addresses the concerns mentioned. First and foremost, it is built upon the point-to-point protocol CYFS and ERC 7585, ensuring data privacy and proof.

At Fog Works, we firmly believe that we are the owners and custodians of our data. We have the right to determine how our data is used, for what purposes, and whether its use is allowed. Additionally, since we contribute our data, we should be entitled to rewards and compensation.

Foggie Max is designed with these principles in mind, serving three key purposes:

  1. Individual Service: It primarily caters to individuals. For instance, we can store our data in Foggie Max. If there’s unused storage space, we can even share it to earn token rewards. Furthermore, if we need additional storage space, we can purchase it using tokens. In summary, Foggie Max prioritizes individual needs and then acts as a mutual backup.
  2. Mutual Backup: Why do we need mutual data backups? Common single-point-of-failure issues occur in our daily lives. When critical data is stored in only one location, the consequences can be severe if a single-point physical failure occurs. Experts recommend having at least three backups for crucial data to enhance security.
  3. Gateway to Web3: In the Web3 world, substantial technical support is essential, especially for popular projects like NFTs and Inscriptions. Foggie Max offers various services related to NFTs, including PIN services, online contract deployment, minting, distribution methods, and low-cost airdrops.

Foggie Max, as a DePIN server, encourages developers to create fun DApps within its system. Let’s collaborate and contribute to an ecosystem that benefits everyone, freeing us from dependence on big tech.

In summary, Foggie Max not only serves individuals but also provides an individual gateway to Web3, empowering users to maximize their presence in this exciting space. Reserve your Foggie Max now! 🚀 You can pre-order it at https://www.shop.fogworks.io/store
