The Akord protocol is now open source and available to all builders. In the coming weeks, we’ll be releasing details of new programs to incentivise builders working on the Akord protocol. But for now, let’s concentrate on the technology.
Akord 协议现在开源了，可供所有构建者使用。在接下来的几周内，我们将发布新计划的详细信息，来激励致力于 Akord 协议的构建者。但现在，让我们专注于技术。
互联网出版正在改变，又一次 (Internet publishing is changing, again)
We have seen the internet evolve from the early, read-only web1, to the dynamic read/write web2 that social media is built on.
我们已经看到互联网从早期的只读 web1 发展到构建社交媒体的动态读/写 web2。
Now we’re seeing how blockchains are enabling a new dimension to the web: ownership. Yet, for data ownership to be practical, we need data to persist just as an object in physical reality can.
现在我们看到区块链如何为网络带来新的维度：所有权。然而，为了使数据所有权变得实用，我们需要数据像物理现实中的对象一样持久存在。
Arweave enables that persistence, and true data ownership, by providing a public, global and permanent hard drive.
Arweave 通过提供公共、全球和永久的硬盘驱动器来实现这种持久性，和真正的数据所有权。
The Akord protocol, built on Arweave, will further advance true user ownership of data, which is the foundation of web3.
基于 Arweave 构建的 Akord 协议将进一步促进用户对数据真正的所有权，这是 web3 的基础。
用户自有存储是一种新范式 (User-owned storage is a new paradigm)
In the classic client–server model, the application must have direct access to the data, usually behind the same firewall. The ‘backend’ of the website needs direct access to your data before it can render a website.
在经典的客户端-服务器模型中，应用必须要直接访问数据，通常位于同一防火墙之后。网站的“后端”需要直接访问您的数据才能呈现网站。
However, this opens several issues that work against the user:
但是，这会引发一些对用户不利的问题：
-
Privacy: most software-as-a-service providers, at a minimum, have a backdoor to customer data at rest, in transit or when processed.
隐私：大多数软件即服务提供商至少对静态、传输中或处理时的客户数据都有后门。 -
Censorship: SaaS providers can revoke access to your data, especially if forced to by a government or legal authority.
审查：SaaS 提供商可以撤销对您数据的访问权限，尤其是在政府或法律机构强制要求的情况下。 -
Lacking consent: your data is often bought and sold, analysed or traded, without your consent or compensation.
缺乏授权：您的数据经常在未经您同意或补偿的情况下被买卖、分析或交易。 -
Surveillance: nefarious actors, governments and cyber criminals can exploit customers by hacking data storage providers.
监视：不法分子、政府和网络犯罪分子可以通过入侵数据存储提供商来剥削客户。
To address these issues, we are introducing the Akord protocol, allowing developers to build applications on a new web3 decentralised architecture.
为了解决这些问题，我们引入了 Akord 协议，允许开发人员在新的 web3 去中心化架构上构建应用。
With Akord, users’ data is encrypted and audited by the protocol. This gives the users the ability to store personal, private or sensitive data in a private vault.
使用 Akord，用户的数据被协议加密和审计。这使用户能够将个人、隐私或敏感数据存储在私人保管库中。
Since users control the keys to the vault, they can consent to who accesses their data. Without a backdoor, backend services cannot have direct access to the data.
由于用户控制保管库的密钥，他们可以同意谁访问他们的数据。因为没有后门，即使后端服务也无法直接访问数据。
保管库 - 促进数据所有权的功能 (Vaults – features to facilitate data ownership)
Akord vaults have the functionality and properties needed for data ownership:
Akord 保管库具有数据所有权所需的功能和属性：
-
Privacy: secured by end-to-end encryption.
隐私： 通过端到端加密保护。 -
Consent: access controlled by the user’s consent.
授权：由用户同意控制的访问。 -
ZKP: containers for verifiable claims and zero knowledge proofs.
零知识证明ZKP：可验证声明和零知识证明的容器。 -
Composable and extendable protocol, enabling custom extensions.
可组合和可扩展 协议，支持自定义扩展。 -
On-chain permanent storage for files and folders.
链上 永久存储 ，可用于文件和文件夹。 -
File versioning and auditing.
文件版本控制和审核。 -
Messaging and collaboration.
消息传递和协作。
Vaults are multi-user. The owner can control who has access to the vault and the members who have access to contribute.
保管库是多用户的。所有者可以控制有权访问保管库的人员以及有权参与贡献的成员。
Inside the vault, we can store files, messages, images, structured or unstructured data, and much more. Auditing and file revisions are built-in features of the vault.
在保管库中，我们可以存储文件、消息、图像、结构化或非结构化数据等等。审核和文件修订是保管库 的内置功能。
Designed for composability, vaults enable developers to program functionality such as submitting a document for signature or storage.
保管库专为可组合性而设计，使开发人员能够对功能进行编程，例如提交文档以供签名或存储。
目前协议的用例 (Protocol use cases, so far)
Here’s a short summary of the types of projects we’re helping to build on the Akord protocol:
以下是我们在 Akord 协议上，帮助构建的项目类型的简短摘要：
-
Web3: NFT projects, DAOs, funds, exclusive membership access.
Web3： NFT 项目、DAO、基金、独家会员访问。 -
Public goods: reforestation data, historical archives, documenting art objects.
公共物品：重新造林数据、历史档案、记录艺术品。 -
Enterprise: Health insurance data, genetic data, business archives.
企业：健康保险数据、基因数据、业务档案。
For web3, the private vaults enable decentralised sharing of sensitive data.
对于 web3，私有保管库可以实现敏感数据的分散共享。
For public goods, vaults are enabling dynamic access control, as well as perpetual and open access to data from reforestation projects to historical archives.
对于公共产品，保管库正在实现动态访问控制，以及对从重新造林项目到历史档案的数据的永久和开放访问。
For enterprise, our partners recognise the importance of having secure and permanent data. Health, genetic and personal information can be coordinated and shared with a user directly to their vaults, changing the relationship between company and user.
对于企业而言，我们的合作伙伴认识到拥有安全和永久数据的重要性。健康、遗传和个人信息可以与用户直接协调并共享到他们的保险库，从而改变公司和用户之间的关系。
In all cases, the user becomes the owner of their data. Then the company seeks the consent of the user to access their data.
在所有情况下，用户都成为其数据的所有者。然后公司寻求用户的同意来访问他们的数据。
