Maximizing the NOIA Protocol to Earn Money While Using the Internet
INTRODUCTION
Many times when we enter our frequently used website and it takes a while to load, we usually blame the internet connection and our internet provider.

But the truth is that these are not usually the main causes of the time it takes to load the pages, if we can think about it, we would realize that the servers of the main pages we frequent are at a great distance (usually several countries away), even though the data moves at an impressive speed, every time we try to access a web page, our device sends a request to the server where the web page we are trying to access is hosted, these servers can be thousands of kilometers away and due to the long distance we can experience what we call latency (temporary delay within a network).
CDN networks were developed to distribute Internet content with greater availability and performance, it uses special servers that are geographically distributed, CDN networks can increase the speed of content distribution to multiple locations to meet all content requests from users using the nearest servers.

But with the rise and modernization of Internet content, the CDN is facing new challenges, digital requirements and the demand for streaming multimedia content now affect web page load times much more, dynamic pages use more complex logic to display more eye-catching presentations that cannot be stored in the cache, and mobile devices and devices are often far removed from the source servers.

Centralized NDCs cannot solve these problems because they cannot cover all locations to satisfy users, the best solution for this would be a decentralized network that implements a better strategy and makes users part of the solution. This is where NOIA NETWORK comes in.
What is NOIA NETWORK?
NOIA NETWORK using the next-generation P2P (peer-to-peer) protocol, blockchain technology and artificial intelligence combines thousands of computers and mobile devices to serve as points of presence (POPs) for caching all web content and delivering web content across local Internet networks worldwide.
NOIA’s aim is to become a fully self-sustained, decentralized swarm of hundreds of thousands of nodes that would optimally share their resources, governed by the rules as written in the smart contracts and operated with NOIA tokens. Such a swarm of nodes would serve as a new infrastructure layer for the fastest, most optimized and cost-efficient web content delivery on the internet.
This is a great innovation because we as users would have the opportunity to be part of a large network by configuring our computer to contribute our bandwidth and unused storage space and would be rewarded for that with your token, it will also be a great opportunity for large websites as the distribution of their content would be much more efficient and thanks to NOIA would significantly reduce their operating costs.
NOIA Economics
NOIA NETWORK has its own content delivery and distribution exchange economy that is self-contained and has unlimited scalability. The main buyers of the NOIA token will be the companies that want a better distribution of their contents, within the economy of NOIA 1 token will represent 5GB of data transfer, with the tokens the companies will be able to acquire the content distribution services in a simple and economic way without the need for the websites to change their architecture since NOIA will work as an additional layer and is designed to fit with the existing hosting and delivery services ecosystems (AWS, Google).
The NOIA token is an ERC20 based token, current CDN providers are priced at around $0.08 per GB while the NOIA token is priced at $0.01 per GB, which is 8 times cheaper than the current market average.
The NOIA token will be used to:
Node client value transfer: The NOIA token will be the way customers reward the nodes that provide content storage for them.
Network governance: monetary rewards in NOIA tokens will ensure that network participants act in the most beneficial way for the network. If the nodes act negatively they will be penalized monetarily and their reputation within the network will decline.
CSL (Content Scaling layer)
The CSL is a set of software that are interconnected, thus creating a system that aims to optimize the delivery of content through the nodes that share their bandwidth and storage, one could say that is the backbone of NOIA, the CSL is composed of two types of technologies:
P2P file sharing technology. CSL uses proprietary P2P content scaling protocol that employs relevant parts of Peer Exchange (PEX), Bittorrent, Distributed Hash Table (DHT) and Websocket wire protocols.
Artificial Intelligence (Machine Learning). CSL uses proprietary mathematical algorithms and pattern recognition to handle requests (merging requests), content caching (smart caching), fastest-route discovery, and network traffic prediction and anticipation.
CSL Stack
CSL consists of different software and there are two methods of how CSL can be executed in NOIA:
CSL Cloud Controller Model: This is a centralized framework in NOIA which controls the other CSL systems.
CSL DAO Concept Model: This is a fully decentralized framework with a free will system of government in contrast to the other CSL systems.
based on:
- Traffic prediction (machine learning)
- Traffic anticipation (on demand scaling)
- Smart content caching
- Quality of Service (QoS) control
Because there are some technological limitations that obstruct the execution of the CSL organization in a decentralized cloud, NOIA does not launch the project in a 100% decentralized manner from the beginning in order not to run significant risks, to avoid future problems and to avoid jeopardizing the viability of NOIA, the network launches a CSL using a centralized cloud controller and thus can guarantee the security of the network.
CSL Cloud Controller (DAO Model Concept)
This is the vital element of the CSL stack, it is responsible for indoctrinating master nodes on how to best utilize storage and data delivery worker nodes more efficiently and effectively. It is also the body that authorizes the master nodes that must meet the requirements established in the governing layer.
The main responsibilities of the CSL Cloud Controller are:
- Authorization of Master Nodes
- Selection and load balancing of Master Nodes
- Content scaling commands to Master Nodes
Harmony of NOIA
The distribution of large amounts of content globally is still very expensive and sometimes inefficient, in order to best address these issues, NOIA is designed to act as an enhancement layer that can also be used in combination with other established CDN solutions, this is a very important feature as even existing CDN services can save money thanks to NOIA.
Although NOIA can be used in this way, it should not be forgotten that it competes with existing CDN solutions and because there is no other blockchain-based project like NOIA it can only be compared to centralized solutions for the time being, in terms of price, due to the design based on the blockchain technology used by NOIA, it can greatly reduce data transfer costs. In the following table we can see a comparison of the main characteristics of a CDN between NOIA and the main data distribution services:
NOIA TESTNET
At this point you can already try a little of the NOIA experience thanks to their testnet and be rewarded for it, you can join their network and see how the system will work, for doing this test NOIA rewards you with 200 NOIA tokens per week. You only need to download and run the application from the following link and your device will become a node within NOIA.

From this link you can start the NOIA test and become one of its nodes and start earning tokens, participate is very easy and most importantly NOIA does not affect the performance of your device in any way, feel part of this great change for content distribution:
NOIA TESTNET
Inside the link are the instructions provided by the NOIA team which are very simple to follow, with just a few simple steps you will be part of the NOIA network and begin to earn tokens NOIA weekly, if you have any questions or suggestions here is the Telegram NOIA where you can contact someone from the team who can advise you and clear any doubts you have.
TEAM
Personally I am very excited about this project, as I have often had problems with latency, NOIA is a great benefit both for websites as they could provide better service and reduce costs and also for users as we would not have to suffer due to the slow transfer of data, Being part of the NOIA system could help many people and also be rewarded in the process, it is a win-win situation that without much effort we would achieve, since we all always have free space unused on the computer and not always get to use all our data, we would get as much benefit as we could from our computer.
I believe that this project is the future for the CDN, the blockchain is a technology that has come to improve everything and each of the areas in which we mobilize, in such a short time has achieved great progress and benefits both economically and in other sectors and is now entering the distribution of data (in short the Internet), thanks to this we will have a much better experience when browsing and researching our websites preferably, I would like to know your opinion about this project and what future they think has.
Have you had previous experiences with latency?
At the end of the month you always have unused data?
Would you be part of the NOIA NETWORK system?
Do you think today's data distribution companies are efficient?
Do you think NOIA will completely replace the centralised CDNs or will it be a part of the solution?
I would like to read your opinions and experiences in all this field and thus learn together much more about the subject, I look forward to hearing from you.
Nice write up mate. Very thorough indeed. I'm a big fan of this project and have an account already.
Greetings @mazzle, thank you very much.
I am glad to know that you are already part of the NOIA network, I would like to know if you have been participating in the tesnet for a long time and what the experience has been like for you.
This looks promising.
When will the NOIA token be released? or at least their ICO?
Hello @silent.screamer, thank you very much for your comment.
The token will be released very soon, official information will be given first within the telegram group, join us for the latest news from NOIA.
I hope you have time to join the testnet and start earning income :)
Excellent review @roronoa07.
Very well explained what CDN is about and how NOIA Network could improve connection speed in the future. One could argue that they are building infrastructure for "internet 2.0".
Great piece of work my friend.
Yours, Piotr
Hello friend :)
NOIA is definitely part of the base where the internet of the future will rise, I think we should all do our part by helping NOIA with her tesnet.
@roronoa07 your opening line nails it. Indeed NOIA is the solution. As a long term NOIA supporter I applaud your post.
Thank you very much for your valuable comment @thetimetravelerz, you're so right, NOIA is the future, I'm glad you believe in NOIA as much as I do :)
Excellent review @roronoa07. The structure of you article is well organized and it is really pleasant to read it :)
Greetings, Jan
Greetings @neavvy! thank you very much for your valuable comment :) I'm glad you liked the review.
NOIA seems like a very interesting project, anyone no matter in which country this can be part of the tesnet?
There is only a small group of countries that will not be able to participate in the testnet, which they are:
Republic of China, Japan, Canada, Bosnia, Ethiopia, Iraq, Sri Lanka, Syria, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, Vanuatu, Yemen, Afghanistan, Burundi, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo, Eritrea, Republic of Ghuinea, Libya, Myanmar, Somalia, Sudan.
Do you plan to participate in the Testnet of NOIA?
Thank you very much for your prompt response, I am looking forward to registering and will do so at the earliest opportunity.
Really good approach. Your down to earth opening is needed. I believe if more people could relate to blockchain, rather than view it as a mysterious tech, then it would be more quickly adopted. People would soon realize its immediate benefits and the potential it could ultimately have.
At first, NOIA will supplement existing CDNs. Its success, once appreciated, will rapidly lead a transformation that will benefit blockchain as a whole. As to when this will occur, two years, 5 years, I leave that up to you in your reply.Hello @machnbirdsparo! thank you for your valuable comment. You are very right, you have to help understand many more people about how blockchain technology works, that way you can see its benefits and the potential future that has this technology, I think that little by little is adopting this technology, but with our support the adoption would be much faster.
I think this depends largely on the level of acceptance and commitment of users, if we all support being part of the network NOIA I think many more people would begin to realize the potential of NOIA and this would become an important part of the ecosystem blockchain. Have you thought about becoming part of the NOIA tesnet?
I have but I live in the USA. Have they permitted us to join them?
The United States is one of the countries where the NOIA network is available, you can register without problems :)
I thought I read it was recently changed. TY.
Nice work writing NOIAs review. I'm still using NOIA node worker application on Windows, v.0.7.2, they are constantly updating the app. That's what I like because they are optimizing the process every day, and I'm still earning NOIA tokens
Hello @jadam2l18, a congratulation coming from you is a great honor :D
I'm glad to know that you didn't waste time to register in the testnet you will surely be from that group that gets more benefits for their collaboration with the project.
By constantly updating the application leaves evidence that the NOIA team works hard every day for the project to meet everyone's expectations, like you, I see a very bright future for NOIA.
It is incredible how I could generate income just by registering in the testnet, I wonder if my team would slow down while I activate my node?
Hello @poisonous! The node runs in the background and does not use many system resources, and is completely secure and reliable.
So, lets do it right now... I read everything and your information is really interesting ... so lets go to work with NOIA ... thanks a lot @roronoa07 for project ... upvoted and following you right now
Thank you very much for your valuable comment @edgarare1 I love your enthusiasm for being part of NOIA :)
I hope you register as soon as possible and if you have any questions you can ask me.
