Detailed Explanations: Storage Layer Technologies

Merkle Trees
Generate compact proofs (~384 bytes) for off-chain data integrity through Substrate's native proof generation system, supporting PoSp-stored AI datasets with verification through custom storage pallets.
IPFS
Provides content-addressed, decentralized storage for large AI datasets, using a Kademlia-based distributed hash table for efficient content discovery and retrieval, integrated with Substrate's off-chain workers for seamless data access.
Filecoin
Extends IPFS with economic incentives for storage providers, ensuring long-term data persistence through cryptographic proof of storage, coordinated with Substrate's treasury and economic pallets for incentive alignment.
