Data ownership remains one of the most controversial subjects in the world today. Big tech giants like Amazon, Google, Facebook, and Microsoft control an enormous chunk of users’ data in a centralized manner. The rise of blockchain technology sought to overthrow this narrative by decentralizing access to data storage and ownership to return power back to the average user.
As a high-performance protocol, the launch of the new protocol is the blockchain’s own way of joining this revolution. According to the released Whitepaper, the protocol consists of a trinity that works together to provide a decentralized data storage system with users at the center. These three core aspect includes the new blockchain and its multitude of storage providers; the new BNB Greenfield dApps; and existing BNB Chain dApps.
The system is designed to harness the functionalities of these trio to ensure the appropriate safeguard of data in a decentralized manner.
Operation model and benefits of BNB Greenfield
According to BNB Chain, for users to utilize BNB Greenfield, they will need to upload their data with unique access and usage permissions. Once this is done, registered and verified storage providers will store that data off-chain with proper redundancy and backup. The Metadata of users’ BNB ledger is then stored on the BNB Greenfield blockchain.
When this is done, “a native programmable layer connects BNB Greenfield with BNB Smart Chain, opening the door for both new and existing #dApps to leverage data stored on the network in new and exciting ways,” BNB Chain said.
BNB Greenfield is designed to benefit everyone within the Web3.0 ecosystem and while data can be stored faster, it can also be stored more cheaply when compared to the centralized alternatives around. The provision of personal Cloud Storage for users comes off as one of the major benefits of BNB Greenfield.
Additionally, the system will provide hosting and website deployment services, an offering that will directly compete with dominant giants like Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure. The protocol’s benefits also extend to a new social media model as well as the storage of Terabytes of Data from BNB Smart Chain and L2 Rollup Transactions

“The release of the BNB Greenfield whitepaper is just the beginning of a journey towards greater data independence, ownership, and opportunity for users, builders, and the #Web3 community.”
