"Decentralized storage networks [...] let you store files in a decentralized way on a decentralized network of these storage providers that will store that data or those files for you. They have economic incentives to store that, and what's special about the way we use these in Web3 is that we use content address storage. [...] With content address storage, you have essentially a hash, it's a string of letters and numbers that uniquely identifies that file. And so, if you ask for it, you can verify that the file that you got back is correct. And it also allows you to get that file or that data from any peers that you want."
