Allocation Strategy

How do you plan on allocating the DataCap requested above? Please describe your allocation strategy with as much specificity as you can. This includes the target amount per client and rate at which you'll allocate DataCap.

In order to better serve community participants, IPFS Metaverse Community will not impose strict restrictions on use cases, but as a technology research institution, we prefer to support developer tools, Web 3.0, Web3 DApp, Web 2.0 applications and other technology-related applications.

We will focus on the authenticity, influence, allocation decisions, etc. of our customers.
In addition, we will conduct offline surveys to find out who they really are, what they do, their reputation, etc., and how they use Filecoin for storage. We even plan to conduct a full review and assessment of our clients' reputation every three months and reserve the right to adjust client quotas to ensure that shares are allocated to the fullest extent possible.

How do you plan on securing the DataCap to ensure your organization (and its delegated members) are the ones allocating the DataCap?

We will use a wallet with multiple signatures launched by our partner FIL WALLET to distribute to more customers and use a wallet that supports file coins to verify accounts associated with Datacap distributions.

The private keys will be stored in the hard wallet and will be accessible only by the principal.

Client Due Diligence

How will you vet the clients that are applying for DataCap? What questions will you ask to ensure your trust is placed well and that clients can properly handle the DataCap you intend to allocate to them?
