At BlockOG we support projects from the early stages, from ideation to launch and beyond. Our investments include Hypersign, Kudo Money, and Defi11. We are happy to announce that we are early investors in ArGo and look forward to providing them with ongoing support.

ArGo plans to provide a decentralized web hosting platform, providing users with more security, privacy, and lower costs.

Traditional internet as we know it is dominated by the likes of Google and Bing. Governments and organizations have the ability to censor and control content.

The internet has been around for some time now. However, much of its fluid nature is now controlled and censored by governments and corporates. But nowadays the internet is in the middle of a revolution: centralized proprietary services are being replaced with decentralized solutions and monolithic services replaced with peer-to-peer algorithmic markets. That’s what a decentralized web hosting platform is all about, where users have more security and privacy, lower costs, and much higher redundancy.

However, there are still a lot of challenges Decentralized Web Hosting is facing on the way to mass adoption:

  • Users don’t get a great User Experience on these platforms.
  • Not many developer-friendly tools are there to work with.
  • Users have to learn about the underlying technologies.

ArGo is a web app deployment and hosting platform that is built on blockchain technology on the Arweave Permaweb, which is a decentralized cloud platform. The app was built with the vision of true permanence on the internet without any censorship. Websites and apps that are deployed on ArGo also liberate users from recurring costs of server hosting, security, and database usage charges.

Its one-time deployment charges and bespoke use of miner hosting space allows users to put their business or ideas on the internet without ever having to lose them.

Currently, there are challenges faced by users preventing them from adopting decentralized web hosting platforms. This includes, the need for users to have to learn about the underlying technologies, without many develop-friendly tools to work with makes the process less inviting. ArGo has addressed these issues with their ArGo app. The ArGo app is a blockchain-based web app and data storage platform that helps users create space for their ideas on the internet and then keep it running for life. Their decentralized hosting service helps keep data on the internet without users spending thousands on maintenance fees for hosting on the internet.

Block OG is proud to be supporting ArGo in its mission to bring decentralized cloud hosting to the masses and we look forward to a fruitful long-term partnership.
