The adoption of decentralized storage solutions by Web2 users is gradually occurring. However, based on the usage statistics of traditional cloud storage providers, this is still a very small segment of the global storage user base. One of the main reasons for this is that most Web2 users avoid incorporating Web3 solutions due to the underlying usage paradigm shift and lack of easy integration with current user workflows. Debox is taking part in the effort towards bridging this gap.

DeBox uses IPFS and experimented with the Mutable File System (MFS), but ultimately designed their own DeboxFS.
