In this world where technology embraces the whole of our planet, data storage is of vital importance, even though we as simple users send through social networks files such as: photos, videos, documents or audio files, behind everything there is a great infrastructure that is responsible for ensuring the security of such data, even large companies likewise require handling a volume of confidential data that must be protected.
In recent years the concept of cloud storage has become popular, but this is not new, this concept was born in the 1960s in which data was hosted in virtualized storage spaces, usually provided by third parties.
The companies that offer these services operate huge processing centers specialized in the storage of information, the users who require these services have to hire or rent spaces which are expensive.
To access these services once contracted, access can be made through different means such as web service, application programming interface (API), web interface some other.
According to research on the cloud storage market, it is estimated that commercialization will reach 72 billion dollars by 2020, which means that it is a market that is growing exponentially.
For the first time it is my pleasure to introduce you to a blockchain based platform called Casper API, in short it is an infrastructure that was created to store data on any Blockchain platform with the option of intelligent contracts.
Casper API provides an infrastructure for storing data on any Blockchain platform with intelligent contract capabilities. You can store documents, photos, videos, 3D models and audio files. We are currently developing a universal solution that can work with any blockchain.
Casper API is attractive to traditional businesses because it allows for a three-fold reduction in data storage costs instead of centralized solutions. The decentralized structure has proven to be valuable to DApps, providing full transaction transparency, easy integration through SDKs, and secure, cost-effective storage.Casper API allows you to take advantage of all the capabilities already present in cloud storage, such as data storage and the content distribution network (CDN). Your infrastructure can be used for all kinds of applications, websites and even offline business without the use of smart contracts. When combined with architectural capabilities such as automated content delivery through intelligent block chain contracts and SDK for DApps, Casper API is a great solution for the emerging decentralized applications market.
When the decentralized application asks a smart contract for free space to place content, the smart contract will send you a server address where you can upload the data. The Casper API system, during the upload, copies the file to 3 more servers, in short, we have 4 copies of the file. On the other hand, this number of replicas is maintained. If a server is no longer available on the network, it will be replaced by a new one, which will download a copy of the remaining 3 servers. Application developers may or may not encrypt data, depending on the content. Casper API stores 4 copies of encrypted or open files for review.

The Casper token (CST) is the essential component of the system and offers the possibility to perform transactions within the system. The CST is designed to allow for greater system flexibility in real time, as well as to lay the foundation for future system growth and development. All CST vouchers will be issued during the ICO. A CST token can be split up to 0.0000000001 CST.
Be a resource provider (1CST = up to 25.6Gb) in order to provide the data storage needs of the service and receive rewards for it.
Rent the Token to the supplier and receive some of your rewards for using your Token.
Sell the token freely on the stock exchange at market value.
