What are Wander Pools

What are Wander Pools?

Wander Pools are Arweave-powered storage sharing for everyone:

  • Web2 newcomer? Rent out idle disk space in a few clicks, no blockchain expertise required
  • Web3 true believer? Earn rewards for supporting your faith in an open internet
  • Power user? Fine-tune storage locations, network configurations and advanced settings for maximum control

Every gigabyte you allocate expands Arweave’s permanent data layer and earns you $WNDR, the token that powers discovery and perks across the Wander Network of tools and partners.

Why Contribute Your Storage?

  • Support what matters - Reinforce the open web by making data more resilient and accessible worldwide.
  • Put idle resources to work - Turn an unused drive or partition into a yield-generating asset.
  • Earn - Receive $WNDR directly to your Wander wallet as a reward for supporting the network.

A Seamless Desktop Experience

Wander Pools is launching as a dedicated desktop app, guiding you step-by-step:

  • Onboarding made simple - Learn why and how to contribute before you even create an account.
  • Full control - Choose how much storage to allocate, manage advanced configurations, and adjust or pause at any time.
  • Track your impact - See real-time stats on your storage contributions, $WNDR earnings, and Arweave network health, all from a unified dashboard.

Stay tuned for further launch details and start preparing your devices to join the network. The future of storage is yours to contribute.
