Skill based on Arweave (official Erlang node/gateway), generated 2026-02-24. Docs from sources/arweave/ (README, http_iface_docs, http_post_unsigned_tx_docs, doc/).
Arweave is a distributed, cryptographically verified permanent archive. Data is stored in a decentralised peer-to-peer Blockweave; amounts are in winston (1 AR = 10^12 winston). The node exposes an HTTP API for transactions, blocks, wallets, price, and peers; gateways serve content by domain with optional path manifests and custom domains.
