Aleph.im announces integration with Tezos  

Aleph.im, a cross-blockchain decentralized storage and computing network, and leading blockchain Tezos (XTZ/USD) announced an integration, Invezz learned from a press release.

The integration will make connecting with Aleph’s decentralized infrastructure easy for developers on Tezos in line with Aleph’s previous integrations with blockchains like Solana, Ethereum, and Polygon.

An extra layer of security and permanence

Marketplaces and dApps on Tezos will be able to leverage Aleph’s distributed compute and storage nodes, and Tezos NFTs will gain an extra layer of built-in security and permanence through a native backup of corresponding metadata to Aleph’s decentralized network.

Addressing pressing problems with NFTs

Outages and service interruptions can cause NFTs to become temporarily inaccessible. What’s more, the lack of redundancy in traditional cloud architecture could potentially render crucial NFT metadata nonexistent if a centralized cloud storage network provider were to cease to exist or go out of business.

With its NFT backup dApp, Aleph.im addresses these and other issues. The IPFS-connected app fixes key NFT metadata more than 50 times to each core channel node of the aleph.im decentralized network.

Jonathan Schemoul, CEO and Founder of Aleph.im commented:

According to Schemoul, locked $ALEPH tokens are an easy way to pay for storage on Aleph. To ensure NFT storage reliability, the Aleph.im network also provides a ‘minimum wage’ payment to node providers. Burning Tezos NFTs will provide the holder with the $ALEPH tokens embedded in the NFT.
