DePIN Data Layer AIOZ Pin Pushes to Keep Web3 Files Permanently Online

One of the biggest challenges facing the Internet is ensuring that old content stays online. Study conducted by the Pew Research Center in 2024 Found 38% of web pages that existed in 2013 are no longer accessible, a form of “digital decay” that erases our shared histories and memories.

However, with Web3 coming to the fore, one platform says it is making concerted efforts to ensure files remain always available.Iwoz pinan IPFS-based distributed data layer, based on a decentralized physical infrastructure network (Demin), where anyone with spare disk space and bandwidth can run a community-managed node, contributing real storage to the network and unlocking potential token rewards.

Whereas content used to be kept on a single server, creating a single point of failure, AIOZ Pin replicates that data as multiple, independent copies, partitioned and processed as one or more content identifiers (CIDs) – meaning there are backups in the event of a service outage. Nodes are also mandated to provide cryptographic proofs to verify that files are actually stored, providing peace of mind. With an estimated network of over 300,000 contributing devices across 198 countries, the AIOZ Pin infrastructure is already robust and widely distributed.

The AIOZ Pin approach is complemented by low levels of latency, explained Erman Tjiputra, Founder and CEO of AIOZ Network. Replication means that other areas of its network can compensate for slowdowns during service outages or periods of high demand – and as a result, performance and ease of use are not compromised by decentralization.

“Rather than treating continuity as an afterthought, AIOZ Pin makes permanence, verifiability and cost efficiency part of the infrastructure,” Tjiputra said. “It proves the content, metadata, and digital records that Web3 applications depend on.”

He explained that many use cases have already emerged for this method of storing data. NFT artworks and metadata remain secure and accessible, while decentralized autonomous protocols and organizations can ensure governance archives remain retrievable for years to come.

AI agents can use this storage to persist claims, configurations, knowledge, and execution logs, enabling autonomous systems to maintain long-term memory, verifiability, and persistence without relying on centralized infrastructure.

Other advantages include resistance to censorship, and ensuring that files are tamper-proof, Djiputra added.

“The DePIN rule ensures that no operator can quietly unhost or alter data,” he said, adding that “since content is spread across independent nodes, attempts to remove it in one place do not result in it being wiped from the network.”

Software development kits and application programming interfaces (APIs) were introduced to make it easier for developers to start using its services, meaning they could focus on building their own products instead.

This data layer is also part of the broader layer IOS network An ecosystem that combines a streaming service, a decentralized storage network, and a platform that provides new AI tools to Web3 users. As more nodes and assets come online, the network aims to serve as “an archive of the people-powered Internet,” Djiputra said.

“If Web3 is going to deliver on its promise, the data behind it needs to stay online,” he said, adding that AIOZ Pin “gives developers and creators a way to make this part of their architecture.”
