It’s starting to feel like the calm before a major shift in crypto.

Storage coins like $AR, $FIL, and others are going crazy, and it’s happening just as @irys_xyz inches closer to its mainnet.

69% of the Irys mainnet is already complete, and at this speed, it might actually go live by the end of the month.

I’ve been following this closely because this isn’t just another mainnet.
Irys is building the Datachain, where data isn’t just stored; it’s alive.

While traditional storage networks only hold data, Irys will let AI models, DePIN devices, and entire ecosystems verify, monetize, and move data across chains in real time.

That means every file, every sensor, and every transaction becomes a programmable value, powering the next generation of AI and machine networks.

That’s what Irys is enabling: a world where data doesn’t just exist, it works.

The storage narrative is heating up fast, and with Irys getting this close to the mainnet, it’s starting to feel like we’re standing right before the next big unlock in the on-chain data economy.
