Arweave has a list of competitors, but what makes them special is the feature of one-time payment for data storage (instead of subscriptions) that will be much lower than other projects offer. They will be focused on storing large amounts of data and making it permanent and immutable. The team has also established several partnerships. What else is adding optimism is their plan to launch the product in June and a hard cap of $8.7 million. So, in spite of the young team and a number of competitors, the project deserves a rate much higher than average.
“Pay once, store forever” is a slogan of Arweave, a project using the new proof of access mechanism to make data storage cheap, fast, and really permanent.

13-May. Sergey: It is better to register. We have noticed the project, but have not decided whether to participate or not yet. We are interested in the project because of the low cap.
14-May. Ivan: They are planning to launch main net in June. The cap is small and they will have the native token.
Andrey: They have had private, seed and pre-sale.
Key: They have changed the name of the project. Link
30-May. Andrey: Another proof of care thing, they allocate 400 thousand GBP for sale.

Advantages.
1. A new concept of permanent data storage. Features low cost. Almost all development is in progress. Prepared project
2. Signed data related contract with charity, Europe's largest hospital.
3. Extremely low hard cap, good tokenomic
A complementary point
1. Having as many storage nodes as possible is key to success.
2. We need to watch a little more to see if a high TPS implementation is possible.
3. Participation of other Crypto funds besides TechStars is invisible.

Data storage blockchain protocol. hard is attractive. like the project and the team, I wait for MVP to comment further. Hype has picked up.

While the team behind the Arweave ICO are new to the startup world, they’ve managed to bring a novel storage solution to the table with a mainnet launch around the corner. Despite the competition and questions about scaling, we think Arweave is a serious contender among storage protocols.

Arweave is definitely a project that can have a good use case in the real world. Although the team might not look impressive based on their resumes, they showcase an active Github. The project is in advanced stages of development with the main net only few weeks away. However, we believe the team might have to focus more on marketing their product to the masses and to develop some key partnerships in the space as the competition is fierce. The community’s response towards the main net launch will be a crucial factor in determining the future of this project. For now we do believe Arweave is a great investment opportunity considering their relatively low hard cap and the demand showcased from investors and cryptocurrency outlets.

The heart of the project consists of advanced blockchain technology for storing data in a cost-effective way.

Strengths of the project:

• Its potential market demonstrates high growth rates.

• Starting investments have already been raised.

Weaknesses of the project:

• The project team is very young; their experience in the development of blockchain technologies is not high. Marketing specialists are absent from the team.

• There is no available MVP or roadmap.
