I use it for backups?
What software should I use?
CKB cells can store arbitrary data. But keep in mind that 1 CKB = 1 byte of onchain state. The use of state under global consensus, aka Common Knowledge Base is critical, it is not a place where you store PDFs, JPGs or large amounts of data. So I'm not sure if CKB is the best option for that.
O, I have 64kbyte of sensitive data, which I want to backup into nervos blockchain (and, as I see, can replace), also I have 100k CKB (it means 100kb of data space, yes?). How can I do it? Is there any soft to create CKB cell with my data and manage them?
Honestly, I'm getting a bit lost here, I don't think a public blockchain like CKB is the place to store something like that. @mattQuinn, any advice?
I view onto this project almost from start, because main idea is blockchain as storage with appropriate economic model, but no implementation for arbitrary data push yet (or I don't know)
Wouldn't any data stored on CKB also be publicly visible, so maybe not the best place for sensitive data? But this is an interesting question, because if you own the CKB, I'm assuming you can store whatever you want to, no mater whether it is really something that CKB is intended for.
Yes, I plan to store here a cryptocontainer. Also, in software data can be encrypted with cell owner's keys before pushing to cell
Why do you want sensitive data to be shared with the world? Why not just use IPFS?
Whether or not it's a good idea, would it be detrimental to the chain if people did use their CKB to store whatever they wanted to?
I think it's ok as long as the capability is included in the cell to remove that data
Wouldn't the owner always have the ability to remove the data and 'consume' (is that the word?) the cell?
Because I must request data when it stored in ipfs: the more requests = the more distributed. When I store in blockchain (in state), every node stores my data by default. CKB has proper model for user's storage: I must lock couple of $ckb while I store data, I can't get any profit from them, then I pay inflation rate; when I delete my data - I get coins back. It is super system, but no interface yet. When interfaces appear - CKB will moon because there is huge demand for this feature
It works as long as there's nothing in the type script to prevent it from being cleared
Also stored data can be encrypted with cell owner's keys - it will be proper design
super idea. My company has been looking for such a data storage service for a long time. In particular, for storing keys for electronic digital signature
