# Neova

We're often asked, “What is Neova?” Neova is a fully integrated ecosystem built on a tailor-made decentralized cloud solution, designed to meet the needs of Web3 and Web2 companies, as well as developers and builders. With an easy contribution model, Neova enables businesses and individuals to fully exploit the power of decentralization seamlessly, providing a unique bridge between traditional and decentralized technologies.

At Neova, we focus on transforming specific Web2 use cases by integrating Web3 technologies. Our infrastructure enhances applications with robust security, ensuring data integrity, while simplifying processes that have traditionally been complex or insecure.

Designed for universal use, Neova prioritizes a user-friendly experience. We've built the infrastructure with simplicity and accessibility in mind, so that users from all horizons can easily navigate and take full advantage of the benefits offered by decentralized technologies. Ultimately, our aim is to make your journey across the digital landscape safer and more reliable, enabling you to interact with confidence with the web while retaining control of your data.

Blockchains go far beyond simple financial transactions or crypto-assets, and represent a powerful technology for simplifying many aspects of the world. In building this infrastructure, we are implementing a proof-of-storage system, where the concept of Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) is not just a buzzword, but a fundamental principle. We don't control the network, but collectively strengthen it through hardware decentralization.

This approach enables us to create a more resilient distributed network that benefits all participants, ensuring greater security, efficiency and scalability. By leveraging the power of decentralized hardware, we contribute to the development of a more robust ecosystem where the network grows stronger with each additional node, rather than relying on centralized ownership or control.

# Our Distributed Network

Neova’s network is built for full decentralization—prioritizing resilience, scalability, and security. With Neova operating less than 5% of total nodes, control is distributed across a wide community of individuals and enterprises, eliminating single points of failure and boosting trust.

The network scales through modular “mini-clusters”—interconnected nodes that intelligently balance workloads, enabling seamless growth and high throughput without centralized bottlenecks.

Data is secured by design. Each file is encrypted, sharded, and redundantly stored across multiple nodes. No node holds a full file, ensuring maximum privacy and protection against loss or breaches.

Redundancy + encryption = fault-tolerance and confidentiality by default.

Neova’s architecture is fully aligned with modern data privacy standards, delivering a future-proof, decentralized alternative to legacy cloud systems—secure, compliant, and ready to scale with demand.

<figure><img src="/files/TtInzpVd09mw2hGezm60" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>


# Peer-to-peer Network

Neova’s peer-to-peer (P2P) nodes form the backbone of our decentralized infrastructure. Operated by individuals or enterprises, these nodes contribute storage capacity to the network in exchange for $NEOV rewards - powering scalability, accessibility, and resilience.

**Flexible & Scalable**\
Nodes can run on almost any device, from personal computers and enterprise servers to low-cost hardware like Raspberry Pi. This accessibility allows the network to grow organically and rapidly as demand increases.

**Secure & Private by Design**\
All data is encrypted, fragmented, and redundantly stored across multiple nodes. A single node never holds an entire file, and no data can be accessed without the correct decryption key, ensuring privacy and resilience against downtime or attack.

**Easy to Join**\
Anyone can become a storage provider by spinning up a node. Upon setup, it automatically configures itself and registers with the Neova network, making the user eligible to store and secure encrypted data while earning $NEOV.

Neova’s P2P system turns everyday devices into decentralized cloud infrastructure - fueling a network that is secure, distributed, and open to all.

# IPFS Connection

**What is the IPFS protocol?**

The Interplanetary File System (IPFS) is a protocol designed to decentralize the traditional internet protocol. It is an open-source, peer-to-peer protocol that uses content addressing to distribute and store data across multiple nodes.

* **Its operation is based on three main pillars:**
  * **Data integrity:** Since the hash is derived from the contents of the file, any modification to the file results in a different hash, ensuring data integrity.
  * **Efficient data retrieval:** Users can request data using its hash, enabling faster and more efficient retrieval of data from the nearest available node.
  * **Elimination of data duplication:** Content-based addressing inherently eliminates data duplication, as each unique file has a single hash.

Additionally, on the encryption side, IPFS uses hash functions to create unique identifiers for each file or block of data. This ensures that any changes to the data would be detected immediately, as the hash would change.

**Why are we using IPFS?**

For Neova, whose very essence lies in data storage, exploiting the IPFS protocol is crucial.

Firstly, the efficient distribution of data by IPFS enables faster downloads and reduces the load on individual servers, making it an ideal choice for sharing large files.

Secondly, IPFS offers greater redundancy and data security, enabling it to be used in Neova's architecture as a decentralized storage and backup solution.

What's more, as the IPFS protocol is open source, Neova will use it as a basis for its beneficial aspects and optimize it by further decentralizing it. This approach guarantees robust and efficient data storage, in line with Neova's mission to provide a secure, decentralized cloud infrastructure.


# Master Nodes

Master nodes play a critical role in the management and coordination of the network. They are strategically deployed in different geographic regions to reduce latency and enhance data distribution. Each master node is responsible for assigning data to P2P nodes within the same geographic area, ensuring rapid and efficient data transmission for end users.

**Geographic distribution:** Master nodes are located in various locations around the world. This geographic distribution helps to reduce latency by ensuring that data is stored and accessible close to the end user. For clients with specific data residency requirements, this system also allows for geographic targeting, ensuring that data can be stored exclusively within designated regions or countries if needed. This makes Neova especially suitable for organizations that need to meet regional data sovereignty or compliance standards without sacrificing the benefits of a decentralized network

**Management and coordination:** Master nodes orchestrate network operations by assigning storage and data processing tasks to P2P nodes. They also oversee data integrity and security using advanced verification and consensus algorithms.

**Redundancy and reliability:** To ensure high availability and resilience against failures, each region has multiple redundant master nodes. If one master node fails, another can take over without service interruption.


# Peer-to-Peer Nodes

P2P nodes are the core foundation of Neova's network, enabling the decentralized structure that powers the entire ecosystem. These nodes can be operated by both individuals and companies who contribute their storage resources to the infrastructure. In return, they are rewarded in $NEOV, the native token of Neova, incentivizing participation and growth within the network.

**Flexibility and scalability**: One of the main advantages of Neova's P2P node system is its flexibility. P2P nodes can be hosted on a wide range of devices, from personal computers and enterprise servers to smaller, more accessible devices like the Raspberry Pi. This flexibility makes it easier for everyone to participate in the network, whatever their resources. As demand for storage and processing power grows, the network can effortlessly scale by adding additional P2P nodes, ensuring that the system adapts to changing needs without compromising performance.

**Security and privacy**: Security is a top priority within Neova’s decentralized infrastructure. Data stored on P2P nodes is fragmented into small pieces and encrypted, making it unreadable and useless even if a single node is compromised. Only those with the appropriate decryption key can access and reconstruct the original data. Additionally, each data fragment (or "shard") is redundantly stored across multiple nodes, ensuring that even if one or more nodes go offline or are compromised, the data remains available, intact, and secure. This redundancy enhances the overall integrity of the network, while the encryption ensures that privacy is preserved, safeguarding sensitive information at all times.

Providers can join the network by running a provider node on their machine. When starting it, public configuration is retrieved to understand which node it should listen for incoming messages. A request is also made to register as a provided and be eligible to store files of the Neova network along the infrastructure.


# How to run a Neova Node

Become part of the Neova Network in 3 simple steps:

**1. Install the Node**\
Set up the Neova provider client on any compatible device — from laptops and servers to a Raspberry Pi.

**2. Contribute Storage**\
Start sharing unused disk space. All data is encrypted and sharded — your machine only stores fragments.

**3. Earn $NEOV**\
Get rewarded for securing and powering the decentralized cloud. The more storage you offer, the more you earn.

<br>

⚙️ *No coding required. Start earning in minutes.*\
&#x20;🛡 *Your machine. Your rules. Zero custody risk.*


# Reward and Incentives

P2P node providers are the backbone of Neova’s decentralized cloud — and they’re rewarded in $NEOV for their contributions.

Rewards are based on:

* **Storage Contributed**: The more space you offer and used by the network, the more you earn.
* **Usage**: Frequently accessed data earns higher rewards.
* **Reliability**: Nodes with high uptime and fast retrievals are prioritized.\ <br>

This model ensures that providers are incentivized not just to join, but to optimize performance — powering a secure, scalable, and always-on decentralized network.

&#x20;*Effort in = Rewards out. The better your node, the higher your earnings.*

<figure><img src="/files/ESNXulqaLtKvNG8vngw4" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>


# Dynamic Rewards Calculation

**Token release in Monthly Vesting**

* The model provides for a monthly release of tokens, distributed linearly for providers rewards. This release comes from a limited pool of tokens, called Lending Reward in tokenomics.
* To reserve a portion of these tokens for future rewards, a percentage is set aside in a *vault*, ensuring a reserve for the future after all $NEOV tokens have been issued.

**$NEOV Price Variations**

To protect against the potential volatility of the market, we're going to set up a calculation that allows us to allocate more or fewer tokens per Go depending on price fluctuations, based on $0.064 (public launch price at TGE).

* **Price Above Target :** If the $NEOV price is above the target, the number of tokens per Go decreases, as fewer tokens are required to provide an attractive reward.
* **Price Below Target :** If the price is below the target, the number of tokens per Go increases, meaning more tokens are distributed per Go to maintain operator attractiveness.

$$
TokensPerGo f(Price)=TokensPerGo\*(\frac{Target Price}{CurrentPrice})
$$

**Vault Adjustment Mechanism**

This vault percentage (set at e.g. 30%) can be adjusted monthly based on network demand, numbers of providers and variations of the $NEOV price.

**Variables Affecting Vault Percentage**

* **Network Size (Go):** If the total Go usage on the network increases, a smaller percentage is allocated to the vault, favoring immediate token distribution.
* **Number of Providers:** With a higher number of providers, more tokens are distributed instead of being stored. Conversely, if the number of providers decreases, the vault percentage rises.
* **$NEOV Token Price Variation:** The vault percentage also adjusts in response to the potential volatility of $NEOV’s price. If the $NEOV price falls very significantly, then the share of tokens held in the vault will decrease considerably in order to continue to attract providers despite a fall in the token price.

$$
VaultRate=InitialRate\*(1-\frac{PreviousGo}{CurrentGo})
\*(1-\frac{PreviousProviders}{CurrentProviders})
\*TokenPerGof(Price)
$$

**Distributed Tokens**

Each month, the number of tokens issued is reduced by the vault rate (percentage of tokens set aside in the vault). The remaining tokens after this deduction represent the total rewards available to be distributed among providers for that month.

$$
DistributedTokens=ReleasedTokens\*(1-VaultRate)
$$

**Rewards calculation**

Once the total rewards available for distribution are determined, the token reward per Go can be calculated:

$$
TokensPerGo=\frac{DistrubutedTokens}{TotalGoUsed}
$$

This gives the precise reward rate for storage usage, aligning provider incentives with network demand.

#### **Scenarii**

To show providers how rewards fluctuate according to network usage and token price, here are some hypothetical scenarios:

**Scenario 1 - Network and price growth**

* **Month 1:** 10 To used, 100 providers, token price stable, 30% reserved in the vault, meaning 70% of tokens are distributed, around 544.444 tokens per Go.
* **Month 12:** Assuming a linear 5% growth in network size and provider count, with a 3% monthly increase in token price, the reward per Go would be 321.448 tokens.

**Scenario 2 - Price decrease but network growth**

* Token price decreases by 3% monthly, but the network continues to grow by 5%.
* **Month 12:** Reward per Go rises slightly to 322.78 tokens, as a lower price requires broader distribution to maintain attractiveness.

**Scenario 3 - Network growth with declining numbers of providers and price decrease**

* Network grows by 5%, but providers decrease by 1% monthly, with a 3% monthly price decline.
* **Month 12:** Reward per Go decreases to 317.417 tokens, as a larger vault reserve is maintained to support future rewards.

**Scenario 4 - Price dump and network usage also, but numbers of providers increases**

* Network usage decreases by 5%, providers increase by 15%, and token price falls by 4%.
* Although tokens per Go increase, the total distributed amount is low due to reduced network usage.&#x20;

This system ensures that token price volatility have a limited impact on rewards, thanks to the dynamic adjustment. Network size and storage demand remain the key factors, promoting reward stability regardless of token volatility.

The incentive structure relies on a balanced management of provider numbers and storage volume demand to attract providers quickly and expand network size.


# Provider Interfaces

Providers will have full control over the storage they allocate to the network. Using an adjustable slider, they can increase or decrease the amount of storage they wish to contribute at each period (month). A dashboard will display projected earnings based on the current allocation. This projection will show the potential token earnings if the allocated storage is fully utilized continuously by the network.

Each provider will have access to a real-time dashboard that provides comprehensive insights into their worker node’s performance. Key indicators on this dashboard include:

* **Storage utilization:** A view of the allocated space and actual usage, showing how much of their storage is actively engaged by the network.
* **Pending rewards:** Earned tokens awaiting distribution based on current utilization.
* **Worker availability:** Status updates on the reliability and uptime of their node, ensuring transparency on any factors that might impact earnings.

#### Rewards Calculator

To help providers make informed decisions, an interactive calculator will be available for simulation - Go to be developed. By entering different parameters, such as network size, total number of providers, and token price, providers can see potential earnings across various scenarios. This feature empowers them to understand how changes in network conditions or token value might impact their rewards.


# Slashing Mechanism

#### **Slashing Mechanism for Malicious Activity**

To maintain the integrity and reliability of the Neova network, a slashing mechanism is implemented to penalize malicious or irresponsible behavior by P2P node operators. This mechanism ensures that nodes that do not adhere to the protocol's standards face consequences.

The main conditions that can lead to reward slashing include :

**Simulating storage data:** Some providers might try to simulate the presence of data on their node without actually storing it. This can include action like faking data storage to appear as an active node and earn rewards.

**Worker interruptions:** Providers may occasionally shut down their worker nodes for maintenance or local network issues.

**Change in storage allocation:** Providers commit to a set storage amount but may reduce this storage space without updating their allocation settings at the end of the period.

**Corrupted or altered the data:** Providers are responsible for storing and maintaining data accurately. Deliberate or negligent handling that results in corrupted, lost, or tampered data could degrade network trust.

# Litepaper

## GLOBAL CONTEXT AND OUR MISSION

Demand for cloud infrastructure is skyrocketing as companies shift to more flexible and cost-effective solutions. The global Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) market is expected to reach USD 558 billion by 2032, with Storage as a Service (STaaS) also experiencing rapid growth. However, this expansion is largely dominated by centralized giants whose models present critical vulnerabilities.

The main limitations of centralized infrastructure include single points of failure, data security risks, issues around data ownership and integrity, and opaque commercialization practices that exploit user data. Major outages and data breaches illustrate the fragility of these traditional models, where a single failure can have widespread impacts. Additionally, centralization restricts user control over their own data, raising growing ethical and privacy concerns.

In response to these challenges, blockchain technology offers a promising alternative by introducing decentralization that enhances resilience, security, and data sovereignty. With its immutable nature, blockchain ensures data integrity and authenticity, yet adoption remains hindered by issues with user experience, accessibility, and scalability.

To drive cloud infrastructure towards a truly secure, user-centric, and scalable model, it is essential to combine the strengths of blockchain while overcoming its current limitations.

Our mission at Neova is to bridge the gap between traditional and decentralized technologies by building an integrated, user-friendly ecosystem that empowers both Web2 and Web3 users. We aim to transform existing cloud infrastructure by offering a decentralized cloud solution that enhances data security, ensures real ownership of the data, and promotes transparency. Through our Proof of Storage system and decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN), we create a more resilient, distributed network that grows stronger with each participant. By prioritizing accessibility and the UI/UX, Neova makes it easier for companies and individuals to leverage decentralization, ensuring a safer, more secure digital landscape where users retain control over their data.

## OUR VISION

Neova’s ambition is to create a dynamic, decentralized ecosystem that enables secure, data-driven solutions across industries while prioritizing user privacy and ownership.

Our ecosystem promotes innovation by integrating interconnected applications that enhance each other’s capabilities. This seamless data sharing boosts efficiency, unlocks new possibilities for innovation, and adapts to evolving user needs. Our goal is to empower individuals with control over their data, offering them the tools to manage their data securely, with privacy at the forefront.

In the broader ecosystem, Neova strives to lead the charge in decentralized technologies by continually refining our infrastructure, improving scalability, and promoting industry-wide adoption. Through continuous technological advancements and a commitment to privacy, we aim to set a new standard for secure, user-centric data management in an increasingly connected world.

## OUR INFRASTRUCTURE

Neova’s infrastructure is a fully decentralized, distributed network designed to provide secure, resilient, and user-controlled data storage and cloud solutions. The network operates on a mesh of independent nodes, with less than 5% owned by Neova itself, ensuring low centralization and promoting robust community participation. This approach minimizes single points of failure, enhancing both security and network resilience against attacks or disruptions.

The architecture is modular, comprised of "mini clouds" or node clusters, which work together to balance data load, prevent capacity bottlenecks, and adapt dynamically to growing demand. Data security is maintained through advanced encryption and sharding techniques, with files split into fragments stored redundantly across multiple nodes. This setup prevents any single node from holding complete files, protecting user data privacy and reinforcing data integrity in case of node failures.

Neova’s infrastructure leverages IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) as a foundation for its decentralized data handling. IPFS enables efficient data distribution, reducing server load and speeding up file transfers while ensuring high redundancy and data security. Neova’s adaptation of IPFS enhances these benefits by decentralizing storage further, aligning with the platform's goal of creating a truly resilient cloud solution.

The network includes strategically placed master nodes and P2P nodes :

Master nodes, located in various location around the world, manage and coordinate data assignment and integrity checks while reducing latency for users by assigning data tasks to geographically proximate P2P nodes. This setup ensures rapid data access and adheres to data residency requirements (GDPR e.g.), critical for organizations needing regional compliance.&#x20;

P2P nodes, which form the backbone of the network, can be operated by individuals and businesses alike, contributing storage resources in exchange for rewards in $NEOV tokens. These nodes add flexibility to the network, as they can operate on devices ranging from personal computers to enterprise servers, easily scaling the system to meet growing storage demands.

This distributed, decentralized design prioritizes data security and privacy, regulatory compliance, and seamless scalability, providing users and organizations with a reliable, user-centric alternative to centralized cloud services.

## PROOF OF STORAGE - DYNAMIC REWARDS

Neova’s token reward system is designed to incentivize P2P storage node providers through $NEOV tokens, based on their storage contributions, network usage, and node reliability. Providers offering larger, actively used, and reliable storage earn higher rewards, ensuring the network’s growth and stability.

Each month, a fixed number of tokens are released for rewards, with a portion reserved in a vault for future distributions. The reward rate adjusts dynamically according to $NEOV’s price: if the price rises, fewer tokens are needed per unit of storage; if the price falls, more tokens are distributed to maintain provider incentives.

The vault percentage can also be adjusted based on network demand, the number of active providers, and token price fluctuations, ensuring rewards remain sustainable.

**Slashing Mechanism**\
To maintain network integrity, a slashing mechanism penalizes malicious or negligent behavior from providers. Actions like faking data storage, extended node downtime, or altering data lead to penalties, ensuring that providers adhere to the network's standards and maintain trust. This system encourages responsible participation and helps secure a reliable decentralized infrastructure.
