BNB Chain has rolled out the Greenfield storage network on the public grid after more than a year in the development and testing phase.
Greenfield is a decentralized, storage-oriented network aligned with BNB Smart Chain.
It touts cross-chain programmability, high bandwidth speeds, and data access rights. Another offshoot of BNB Greenfield is the ability to create a data marketplace where users can list, trade or sell their data.
According to a statement, during the testing phase, the network facilitated more than 200,000 on-chain transactions involving 150,000 unique wallet addresses.
“BNB Greenfield is a transformative development in web3 data ownership and data economics as it offers users a decentralized alternative to conventional cloud services. Unlike centralized offerings, BNB Greenfield gives users control over their data, reducing the risk of breaches and data leaks. loss,” said Arnaud Bauer, senior solutions architect at BNB Chain, in a statement.
Greenfield is one of many networks within the BNB ecosystem, alongside other networks such as BNB Beacon Chain, BNB Smart Chain, opBNB and zkBNB.
