There are a number of emerging streams of data that does not need to meet the same ‘consensus’ bar as what we would expect in a global chain(Filecoin). Pando is a huge forest of IPLD data structures and aggregate tons and tons and tons of data around Filecoin and then over time. There are nice properties of having this sort of data network more tightly linked to the chain that seem desirable to encourage, and this leads to the goals for the Pando:
Keep included metadata consistently available
Provide light-weight, unbiased access to metadata
Discourage historical revisionism.
