London, United Kingdom, July 15th, 2026, ChainwireCT3 today announced the transition of its decentralized storage infrastructure to a dedicated Storage Contracts model designed to support continued platform growth, improve infrastructure scalability, and expand storage capacity as demand increases.The transition follows rapid growth across the CT3 ecosystem, with more than 180,000 unique users having used the platform and more than 500,000 uploads completed. Each upload is linked to an NFT access key, allowing platform activity and network usage to be independently verified on-chain.Continued growth in demand for ct-3.cloud services has increased pressure on the existing infrastructure. Processing all new uploads through a single main collection and one smart contract may reduce scaling flexibility and make storage capacity more difficult to manage as network activity expands.Under the new architecture, new uploads will be distributed across dedicated Storage Contracts rather than a single main contract. Each Storage Contract is linked to a fixed amount of storage capacity and operates as an independent infrastructure segment with its own capacity, utilization level, and on-chain statistics.The new model is intended to distribute workloads across multiple smart contracts, improve the transparency and measurement of resource utilization, and support the deployment of additional storage capacity as demand grows. Participants may finance the deployment of new Storage Contracts and the addition of storage capacity. The allocated capacity is used to store files uploaded through ct-3.cloud, while the resulting profit is shared between CT3 and the participant who financed the infrastructure expansion.Infrastructure SegmentationPreviously, CT3 keys were issued primarily through the main collection and a single contract flow. As the platform expanded, this model became less flexible for handling different categories of data.Storage Contracts divide the infrastructure into separate segments. Each segment:
