Substratum is a decentralized internet that makes it easy for anyone to run their own node supporting the decentralized internet. Each host makes money based on the amount of bandwidth they provide to the decentralized internet, and website owners can pay hosts based on the specific amount of bandwidth used. The system is fueled by microtransactions based on the Substrate currency
Pros
- The overall goal of Substratum is to develop “an open-source foundation for the decentralized web, providing free and unrestricted access to content for a new Web 3.0.” The platform aims to solve major problems with the centralized internet – like high costs, barriers to entry, and lack of easy international availability
Cons
- The company also plans to revolutionize the hosting industry with per-request billing via microtransactions. Microtransactions are facilitated by blockchain technology and artificial intelligence
