Kanari Network is an open-source project that leverages the Move Virtual Machine (Move VM) to revolutionize file metadata management in Web3. It addresses the critical need for:

• Reliable proof of file authenticity
• Secure ownership verification
• Permissionless and trustless operation

Key Features

• Smart Contract Capabilities
  • Hash validation
  • File naming management
  • Access control
  • On-chain record keeping
• Metadata Management
  • File ownership tracking
  • Timestamp verification
  • Version history
  • File governance
  • Immutable references

Technical Overview

Kanari Network utilizes Move VM (from the Diem project) to:

• Execute metadata-specific smart contracts
• Create verifiable cryptographic proofs
• Maintain transparent transaction trails
• Bridge the gap between file storage and metadata management While solutions like IPFS handle P2P file storage, Kanari Network focuses on anchoring metadata on-chain, ensuring:
• Data integrity
• Transparent versioning
• Secure access control

Integration

Developers can easily integrate with Kanari Network through:

• Open-source libraries
• Comprehensive APIs
• Global record retrieval
• Collaborative development opportunities The platform emphasizes:
• Security-first design
• Tamper-proof storage
• Web3 decentralization principles
