Arweave Oasis Chinese Channel post - "Understanding the Iterative Evolution of Arweave's Consensus Mechanism."
Arweave is a decentralized storage network that has undergone multiple significant technological upgrades throughout its development.
From the initial Proof of Access (PoA) to Simple Proof of Random Access (SPoRA) and the rate-limited SPoRA in Arweave 2.6, it has consistently followed its original vision.
On December 26, 2023, Arweave released the 2.7 version whitepaper, introducing Simple Proof of Replication (SPoRes).
These updates aim to incentivize miners to store more data on local hard drives and evolve the consensus mechanism to a new stage.
