Orpheus Network is an open-source software platform for building decentralized storage networks and applications. It allows users to rent out spare hard drive space in exchange for digital tokens.
Orpheus Network is an open-source software platform aimed at building decentralized storage networks and applications. At its core, it enables users to utilize spare hard drive capacity on their computers and rent it out to others in exchange for OR tokens, Orpheus Network's native digital token.
The software allows individuals to install a storage node on their computer which then connects to the wider Orpheus Network. Data uploaded by users is split into encrypted shards and distributed randomly across multiple nodes in the network, providing redundancy and privacy. Node operators earn OR tokens based on how much storage space and bandwidth they contribute.
In addition to decentralized storage, Orpheus Network includes software development kits (SDKs) and APIs to build other applications like decentralized file sharing, web hosting, and more. Its decentralized architecture means no central entity controls the network. Compared to centralized cloud storage providers, Orpheus Network offers competitive pricing and aims to be more secure, private, and censorship-resistant.
