Web3 Now: Skynet and Decentralized Applications for a Web2 World
summary
SkyNet presents a layer that turns the Sia-style storage network into web-hosting: upload directories to public or private portals and get a 46-character skylink that content-addresses immutable files, plus a mutable registry exposed as SkyDB key-value JSON writable by a private key. Portals handle payments and optional freemium accounts, enabling recursive content monetization. Claims: instant global availability across portals, static site hosting from index.html, ~200 community apps in the SkyNet app store; user accounts and monetization features are work in progress.
