SpiderWeb ($ARAC) - Quick Fundamentals - Security Features

Hey Spider-Mites,

Today, we will start off with a Quick Fundamental guide on the Security Features of SpiderWeb ($ARAC)! This will be a quick guide to highlight the key points and features within our security features for you to better understand just "How" we intend to protect the information, and "Why" it will be far more secure than the traditional methods used today!
This project was built with the aim to reduce both cost of traditional web hosting and traffic while maximizing focus on providing security as it has become a rampant issue amongst users, both business and personal alike!

Let's Begin!

Spiderweb ($ARAC), is/will be composed of self-built private nodes and public nodes of P2P resources, in essentially 3 tiers, to form a web of decentralized IDC infrastructure:

Tier Structure

For heightened security, Spiderweb ($ARAC) has a built in proactive/passive AI which monitors all traffic and also uses the same SHA256 encryption method as Bitcoin nodes, SO incase of failure or intrusion/hacking events, it will automatically relay and/or retrieve information between other nodes, so that data security is guaranteed! (see photos below!)

Your personal nodes (SDN - See White Paper for more details) will hold about 49% of you data, while the other 51% is fragmented on all other nodes within the network, and the process to rebuild ANY loss data from any POSSIBLE failure events will be easy as well so that users can operate without worry!

After SHA256 encryption fragments your data into 100 pieces, it will store it across 100 initial nodes across the network so, with these exciting and amazing features, you can be sure that you can go about your business with a peace of mind!

(SpiderWeb ($ARAC) will also incorporate an eco-friendly and energy-efficient consensus mechanism called "Proof of Use" (PoU), which will be used as a means of reward verification as well!)

(**See the NFT Collection Launch post for more details!**)

Thanks everyone for taking the time to understand our Security features! Once again, for a more detailed explanations of this, please visit our #WhitePaper here: https://discord.gg/TmhneY5SEu !
Hope everyone has a great day and let's weave a brighter future together!

Do you see this happening? Could Historical Data Suggest Possible Price Bounce/Drop for BTC?

Although BTC has some historical data to back it up, it is still important to acknowledge that these are only a couple of metrics to take into consideration and it is still very important to look for confluence as well as consider the macro backdrop.

According to CoinMarketCap, Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading at $21,291.69 after a 1.22% drop in price over the last 24 hours and after reaching a high of $21,877.14 over the same time period. Although BTC is down over the last day, the crypto is still up 11.43% over the last week helping other altcoins like Compound, Concordium, Aave, etc experience growth in the past week.

In some related news as updated on CoinQuora, 137,000 BTC worth about $2.8 billion will soon be released into the market. This is stimulating some concern for crypto analysts like Miles Deutsher. The Crypto Banter host believes that the release of the 137,000 BTC could drive a devastating decline in the price of BTC due to the increased sell pressure. Many crypto fans believe that this drop in BTC’s price could align with Ethereum’s Merge which could in turn lead to “The Flipping” becoming a reality. The Flipping is a historical event where Ethereum overtakes Bitcoin market cap.
