Crust Network

Type: Infrastructure - decentralized storage

Website: https://crust.network/

Crust Network is a decentralized, trustless storage layer built on IPFS and supported by thousands of globally distributed nodes. It provides censorship-resistant, verifiable storage for datasets, model artifacts, logs, and application state — all backed by a market-driven storage economy and TEE-enhanced security guarantees.

Integrated with Amadeus, Crust becomes the off-chain memory layer powering AI agents, oracle streams, model provenance, and long-term dataset storage. This positions Amadeus as a full-stack decentralized AI cloud: compute on Amadeus, storage on Crust.

Planned Capabilities for Amadeus

Once integration is complete, Crust Network will enable Amadeus to:

• Store AI agent memory, logs, and checkpoints in decentralized storage, with hashes anchored on-chain for provenance.

• Extend Oracle Streams by providing a durable archival layer for historical datasets, enrichments, and inference outputs.

• Support persistent agent states across long-running autonomous workflows with tamper-proof storage.

• Enable decentralized dataset hosting, allowing developers to provide training data that Amadeus agents can access via IPFS.

• Provide cross-ecosystem wallet compatibility (SubWallet, Talisman, Crust Wallet) for seamless user authentication and asset flow.

• Create a durable data backend for uPoW compute, keeping training artifacts and model updates accessible to verifiers, enterprises, and permissioned workflows.

Example Use Cases

Decentralized AI Memory

Amadeus agents persist memory, logs, and model checkpoints on Crust, ensuring tamper-proof lineage and long-term versioning.

Archival Layer for Oracle Streams

Live data served via Oracle Streams is continuously archived on Crust, enabling agents to learn from historical time-series datasets.

Dataset Hosting for AI Training

Developers, enterprises, or researchers can publish datasets to Crust for Amadeus agents to use during training or evaluation.

Cross-Chain User Access

Users from the Polkadot ecosystem can authenticate and interact with Amadeus using SubWallet or Talisman, enabling broader participation.

Durable Storage for uPoW Outputs

Training outputs and inference artifacts produced under Useful Proof of Work are stored securely and verifiably for downstream consumption.

Current Status

Integration is under active exploration, with technical design in progress and coordinated milestones across both teams.
