# Storage by Smart contract

This is pretty simple, we already have a storage template on the blockchain.\
The template is cloned by our storage factory's contract, in charged to link the wallet to a personal storage contract.

\
So each users have a personal storage, that store a map of the AES keys that encrypted your files, as well as all the CIDs.

We already seen the limitation of storing files by the name, so we are currently checking for a better way that will not make us loose information and/or make the transaction cost go up
