Why You Shouldn't Store Permanently on Our Weave

Our weave is an amazing distribution channel because it will make a your data be around for centuries to come so other people can access it and view it. It'll make your data show up in many different applications because it's a sort of open permissionless data lakes all of the data is shared between all the different apps. If you're going to financialize the data you want to make sure that the data is going to be permanently publicly available otherwise what are you actually selling like you're just selling the contract the points to data that will eventually be lost that's no good either. We don't think absolutely everything in the world should be stored permanently I don't think that would be a good world
