Data storage may seem like a mundane technical issue. But upon closer reflection, from the inheritance of ancient texts to the flow of information in modern times, every advancement of human civilization has relied on some form of "recording."

This becomes even more evident in the digital age. AI model training requires massive amounts of data, immersive game worlds need persistent storage, and decentralized social networks demand distributed guarantees—but in reality, these applications are struggling with storage costs and technical complexity. Filecoin, as a pioneer, has opened the door to decentralized storage, but has faced difficulties due to high costs and performance bottlenecks.

At this point, a new solution has emerged. Its core technology is called **RedStuff Algorithm**—in simple terms, a set of 2D erasure coding techniques. Traditional 1D coding is like slicing data into strips, while 2D coding lays the data out in a grid. The benefits are straightforward: higher efficiency in distributed storage, stronger security redundancy, and significantly reduced costs.

Massive data and high-definition content that previously required expensive storage now have the opportunity to turn the "impossible" into the "possible."

Even more interesting is that this solution has been integrated into the ecosystem of Sui, a high-performance public blockchain. This means storage is no longer an isolated infrastructure but is directly embedded into the operation of smart contracts. Data is no longer static on hard drives but can be called, combined, and interacted with in real-time as "living assets." For the next generation of truly user-friendly decentralized applications, this is the most critical piece of the puzzle.

As data becomes the new measure of civilization, how to store and utilize data well will directly determine how far the Web3 ecosystem can go.
