FAQ
The Arweave blockchain is designed to store data in perpetuity. Through an endowment, which your storage payment goes towards, it can continue to pay miners in the network to preserve your data indefinitely. As Sam Williams, founder of Arweave, says:
"[Arweave is] a new type of storage that backs data with sustainable and perpetual endowments, allowing users and developers to truly store data forever – for the very first time."
We are currently building a fully decentralised app, deployed directly on Arweave: Akord Explorer.
Explorer will be able to find any data you sent to Arweave through Akord.
In practical terms, this means once the app itself is deployed on Arweave it will also be permanently available. Indeed every release of the app would be available as well.
So even if Akord, the company, stops working on the development of the app, Akord Explorer itself will continue to live on the permaweb.
You will be able to connect to Akord Explorer with your normal Akord app login details and find all your uploads.
You cannot delete files from the Arweave blockchain. This would be in opposition to its core mission of providing perpetual access – a truly permanent storage system.
However, included in the Arweave protocol standards is ANS-106: Do-Not-Store Request, which provides a protocol and transaction format to make a request to miners to not store data. As outlined:
"There might be various reasons why persons or entities might wish to remove some data from the network. These include privacy, government regulation and copyright violations."
Within Akord, you can 'Revoke files', which moves them from your 'Assets' tab in a vault. This would prevent anyone from renaming, moving, downloading or viewing the file.
The file would continue to exist on the Arweave blockchain, but completely encrypted and essentially useless. Still, once a file is uploaded, regardless of whether it's revoked, it will continue to use your storage allowance.
Always carefully consider the nature of permanent storage before uploading files, as not all data will be suitable.
YES!
Your payment goes into a storage endowment. It's like the principle upon which the interest goes towards paying the future storage of your data. Indefinitely.

To break it down into what this means in a very practical way: if you have 1 GB of storage on Akord and you upload 1 GB's worth of photos, you never have to pay again to keep those photos on Akord and on the Arweave blockchain. Even if you don't login to Akord for many many years, that data will be preserved and waiting for you.
