Understanding Arweave

What to know about Arweave

Arweave is a Layer 1 for permanent, pay-once data storage, structured as a blockweave rather than a linear chain. The native token AR pays for uploads, and an endowment funds long-term replication.

Quick tips for Arweave
  • Wallet addresses, transaction IDs, and data-item IDs all share the same 43-char base64url shape, so an ID string alone doesn't reveal what it points to.
  • Bundled transactions (ANS-104) pack many independent data items under one on-chain transaction, so a single L1 transaction can represent thousands of uploads.
