StorageHub’s Codebase Audit

What is StorageHub?

As part of the Decentralized Futures program sponsored by the Web3 Foundation, Moonsong Labs has been awarded a grant to develop the open-source codebase for a decentralized storage solution, optimized for larger data sets and file-based storage, that has been affectionately dubbed “StorageHub”. StorageHub is designed to integrate seamlessly with Polkadot’s native functionalities, promoting robustness, scalability, and interoperability.

Why StorageHub?

Seamless Integration: Unlike current solutions that require complex setups or rely on external systems, StorageHub's design aims to offer a fully integrated, native experience within Polkadot.
Dual Provider Model: Introduces Main and Backup Storage Providers, enhancing flexibility and ensuring data unstoppability without compromising on decentralization.
Simplified Payments: Through continuous payment streams, StorageHub's design seeks to simplify the user experience, balancing the ease of one-time payments with sustainable, incentive-aligned ongoing contributions.
Community and Ecosystem Growth: StorageHub's codebase not only aims to serve as a foundational infrastructure for storage, but also seeks to support the growth of the Polkadot ecosystem by hopefully providing a platform for innovative decentralized applications.

Proposal Overview:

As engineers, we strongly believe that auditing new code is not only best practice, but that is also in Polkadot’s best interest. Audits were not funded under the Decentralized Futures grant and therefore this proposal specifically seeks funding for the audit of this decentralized storage codebase. This audit, conducted by SRLabs, a leader in blockchain security, is essential to ensure that StorageHub's codebase meets the highest standards of security and reliability. This collaborative effort with SRLabs highlights our commitment to best practices in engineering and our dedication to enhancing Polkadot's infrastructure.

We Need Your Feedback:

How can we improve our proposal? What features do you believe are most critical for StorageHub's codebase? Your input will help us refine our approach to better serve the Polkadot community.

StorageHub is a decentralized storage solution developed by Moonsong Labs, funded by the Web3 Foundation. It is designed to work well with Polkadot's features, making it strong, fast, and able to work with other systems. Here are some reasons why StorageHub is important:

It works easily with Polkadot without needing complicated setups.
It has two types of storage providers, which makes it flexible and keeps data safe.
It makes payments easier for users.
It helps the Polkadot community grow by providing a platform for new ideas.

The team wants to make sure StorageHub is safe and reliable, so they are asking for money to have it checked by SRLabs, a company that knows a lot about keeping things safe in the world of blockchain.
