Swarm Insights

What is Swarm?

Swarm is a decentralized storage and distribution system, a base layer service for the Ethereum ecosystem. Its primary goal is to provide a peer-to-peer storage and serving solution for dApps and other data needs, making data censorship-resistant and permanently available. It is commonly used for storing dApp code, large media files, and other data that needs to be distributed and accessible in a decentralized manner.
