Cient Diligence Section:
This section pertains to client diligence processes.
Who are your target clients?
Individuals learning about Filecoin,Small-scale developers or data owners
Describe in as much detail as possible how you will perform due diligence on clients.
Firstly, we conduct strict review of the data, including several aspects such as ownership, copyright, public disclosure, and compliance with the laws of most countries. For example, data that is not recognized by most countries, such as gambling, pornography, blood, etc., will be rejected by us
Secondly, we will request a list of collaborating SPs to check if they comply with my rules
And the existing template question and answer mechanism
Please specify how many questions you'll ask, and provide a brief overview of the questions.
According to the existing LDN application template
For example, question 11
Will you use a 3rd-party "Know your client" (KYC) service?
yes
Personal data will require proper KYC of the account
Enterprise data may require proof of business license or other methods
Can any client apply to your pathway, or will you be closed to only your own internal clients? (eg: bizdev or self-referral)
Any clients
How do you plan to track the rate at which DataCap is being distributed to your clients?
Every day, utilizing existing open-source tools
Data Diligence
This section will cover the types of data that you expect to notarize.
As a reminder: The Filecoin Plus program defines quality data is all content that meets local regulatory requirements AND
• the data owner wants to see on the network, including private/encrypted data
• or is open and retrievable
• or demonstrates proof of concept or utility of the network, such as efforts to improve onboarding
As an operating entity in the Filecoin Community, you are required to follow all local & regional regulations relating to any data, digital and otherwise. This may include PII and data deletion requirements, as well as the storing, transmitting, or accessing of data.
Acknowledgement: Acknowledge
What type(s) of data would be applicable for your pathway?
Public Open Dataset (Research/Non-Profit),Public Open Commercial/Enterprise
How will you verify a client's data ownership? Will you use 3rd-party KYB (know your business) service to verify enterprise clients?
We conduct strict data review, which includes several aspects: ownership of the data, whether it is publicly available, and whether it complies with the laws of most countries
Ownership such as business license verification, whether there are other watermarks in the data sample, and whether these data exist on the official website,
Enterprise KYB services can be searched on some national enterprise information query websites, or through Google search, Baidu in China, and so on
How will you ensure the data meets local & regional legal requirements?
Because this is distributed storage, there may be situations where the laws of one country allow it, while the laws of another country do not. Therefore, we will take data that is not allowed by most countries as a condition for rejection to prevent legal issues from arising
What types of data preparation will you support or require?
Support any type of data within the legal framework
What tools or methodology will you use to sample and verify the data aligns with your pathway?
Retrieve data using existing Lotus tools and other open-source tools, compare after downloading data
Data Distribution
This section covers deal-making and data distribution.
As a reminder, the Filecoin Plus program currently defines distributed onboarding as multiple physical locations AND multiple storage provider entities to serve client requirements.
How many replicas will you require to meet programmatic requirements for distribution?
3+
What geographic or regional distribution will you require?
At least in 3 different cities and 2 countries or 2 continents
How many Storage Provider owner/operators will you require to meet programmatic requirements for distribution?
3+
Do you require equal percentage distribution for your clients to their chosen SPs? Will you require preliminary SP distribution plans from the client before allocating any DataCap?
Handle according to existing rules, such as the rules of acbot
What tooling will you use to verify client deal-making distribution?
existing datacapstats.io tooling and the CID checker bot
How will clients meet SP distribution requirements?
Take distribution according to the existing mode. If you don't understand it, you can provide charged technical support
As an allocator, do you support clients that engage in deal-making with SPs utilizing a VPN?
In my work, I learned that many use VPN for security purposes, so I support
DataCap Allocation Strategy
In this section, you will explain your client DataCap allocation strategy.
Keep in mind the program principle over Limited Trust Over Time. Parties, such as clients, start with a limited amount of trust and power.
Additional trust and power need to be earned over time through good-faith execution of their responsibilities and transparency of their actions.
Will you use standardized DataCap allocations to clients?
Yes, standardized
Allocation Tranche Schedule to clients:
According to the existing standardization rules, but I set the overall upper limit to 10p
Will you use programmatic or software based allocations?
Yes, standardized and software based
What tooling will you use to construct messages and send allocations to clients?
Existing tools
Describe the process for granting additional DataCap to previously verified clients.
Handle with existing official tools
Tooling & Bookkeeping
This program relies on many software tools in order to function. The Filecoin Foundation and PL have invested in many different elements of this end-to-end process, and will continue to make those tools open-sourced. Our goal is to increase adoption, and we will balance customization with efficiency.
This section will cover the various UX/UI tools for your pathway. You should think high-level (GitHub repo architecture) as well as tactical (specific bots and API endoints).
Describe in as much detail as possible the tools used for:
• client discoverability & applications
• due diligence & investigation
• bookkeeping
• on-chain message construction
• client deal-making behavior
• tracking overall allocator health
• dispute discussion & resolution
• community updates & comms
With the existing official tools, some relevant questions can be found in the previous answers. Let me briefly talk about it here
• client discoverability & applications - spreadsheet tracking and meetings • due diligence & investigation - publicly available information and meetings • bookkeeping - spreadsheet • on-chain message construction - current filplus.fil.org website • client deal-making behavior - current CID checker bot • tracking overall allocator health - current CID checker bot • dispute discussion & resolution - GitHub notary governance repo • community updates & comms - Slack and GitHub
Will you use open-source tooling from the Fil+ team?
Yes, almost all official tools such as git hub, https://filecoin.tools/ , Google Spreadsheet, filplus checker app BOT, AC BOT, large datacap requests BOT, GitHub repository, etc
Where will you keep your records for bookkeeping? How will you maintain transparency in your allocation decisions?
This framework ensures the responsible allocation of DataCap by conducting regular audits, enforcing strict compliance checks, and requiring allocators to maintain transparency and engage with the community. This approach safeguards the ecosystem, deters misuse, and upholds the commitment to a fair and accountable storage marketplace.
In addition to setting their own rules, each notary allocator will be responsible for managing compliance within their own pathway. You will need to audit your own clients, manage interventions (such as removing DataCap from clients and keeping records), and respond to disputes.
Describe your proposed compliance check mechanisms for your own clients.
It will be reviewed every day and will use all existing official tools to support any type of data stored by new customers within the scope of the law
Describe your process for handling disputes. Highlight response times, transparency, and accountability mechanisms.
such as https://filecoin.notion.site/T-T-Dispute-Tracker-d28b93677cb544b48e77b585856601cf
Because we check the information every day, the response time will not exceed 48 hours. I stressed that we should only strictly review the data. If there is a problem with the data, we will immediately remove its datacap. Other disputes are unexpected for the time being
Detail how you will announce updates to tooling, pathway guidelines, parameters, and process alterations.
Announce and remind in slack or GitHub
How long will you allow the community to provide feedback before implementing changes?
a week
Regarding security, how will you structure and secure the on-chain notary address? If you will utilize a multisig, how will it be structured? Who will have administrative & signatory rights?
I will use LEDGER to protect my notarized address. Only the person in charge of technology has the right to sign
Will you deploy smart contracts for program or policy procedures? If so, how will you track and fund them?
N/A
Monetization
While the Filecoin Foundation and PL will continue to make investments into developing the program and open-sourcing tools, we are also striving to expand and encourage high levels of service and professionalism through these new Notary Allocator pathways. These pathways require increasingly complex tooling and auditing platforms, and we understand that Notaries (and the teams and organizations responsible) are making investments into building effective systems.
It is reasonable for teams building services in this marketplace to include monetization structures. Our primary guiding principles in this regard are transparency and equity. We require these monetization pathways to be clear, consistent, and auditable.
Outline your monetization models for the services you provide as a notary allocator pathway.
N/A
Describe your organization's structure, such as the legal entity and other business & market ventures.
If you've received DataCap allocation privileges before, please link to prior notary applications.
N/A
How are you connected to the Filecoin ecosystem? Describe your (or your organization's) Filecoin relationships, investments, or ownership.
We already have a technology department responsible for blockchain, and filecoin also belongs to it. I hope to store our company's data in filecoin. My former colleagues have also applied for the corresponding LDN
How are you estimating your client demand and pathway usage? Do you have existing clients and an onboarding funnel?
We checked a large number of LDN applications, the use of official quotas and the storage of our own data
