what's Arkiv Network?
Arkiv Network is a decentralized data layer built for the Ethereum ecosystem, transforming data into a first-class citizen on blockchain. It provides a permissionless, trustless, and verifiable database solution that bridges Web2 usability with Web3 principles, enabling developers to store, query, and manage time-scoped data chains efficiently. Originally conceptualized to address data challenges in Golem Network's marketplace, Arkiv extends beyond to serve DePIN projects and broader Web3 applications by offering fast, extendable, and reliable data availability without relying on centralized providers. Powered by the GLM token for transaction fees, Arkiv maintains Ethereum alignment while expanding GLM's utility in data-centric use cases. It operates in a testnet phase, with features like queryable databases secured by Ethereum's guarantees, fostering data autonomy and ownership for users and builders across ecosystems.
