Storage3 is a free storage application built on the decentralized storage protocol BTFS. Through Storage 3, you can host your websites, applications, apps, and other services on BTFS with ease, even if you have no technical background. To explore efficient decentralized storage at no cost, please visit Storage3.

1. Background

Developers and enterprises may find themselves needing to transfer website ownership for a variety of reasons. These can include business reorganization, company acquisitions, changes in team or department personnel, contractor service handovers, or simply optimizing permission management. To facilitate consistent and secure management of decentralized sites, we introduced the site ownership transfer feature in Storage3 v1.8.0.

2. Operational Guide

To transfer ownership of a site to a new address, please navigate to "Settings" and select "Transfer Site." Users need to sign to confirm the action. The recipient must be a TRON or BTTC address that has logged into Storage 3.

The recipient must sign to confirm the transfer within 24 hours. If the process times out or the recipient declines, the transfer will be invalid. However, users can initiate new transfer attempts at any time.

Once the website transfer is successful, the recipient needs to reconnect the relevant GitHub repository by navigating to "Settings" > "Modify" to update the website content and redeploy it.

All transfer activity records can be viewed on CheckSite.

By following these steps, developers and businesses can effortlessly transfer sites on Storage3, achieving efficient permission management and data migration.

Workflow for Site Transfer on Storage3

3. Join the BTFS Community

Distributed sites offer the following advantages over centralized ones:

1. Better Availability: By distributing data across various nodes around the world, the sites maintain high availability and stability, even in the event of a single node failure.

2. Superior Data Security: BTFS utilizes encryption and distributed storage technologies to ensure your data is secure.

3. Higher Censorship Resistance: The distributed architecture bolsters the free flow of data and enhances resistance to censorship.

If you're a developer looking to deploy your website on the BTFS network via Storage3, we're more than happy to provide technical support and connect you with community resources.
