IPFS — the InterPlanetary File System — is a next-generation web transport protocol to make the Web faster, safer, decentralized, and permanent. It is based on git, bittorrent, and other p2p systems. Content-addressed and signed hyperlinks allow web content and apps to be distributed peer-to-peer, to work without an origin server, to be encrypted end-to-end, to be censorship resistant, to work while offline, and more.
This talk includes:
1) a short introduction to IPFS for those new to it.
2) an update on important Ethereum-relevant developments since DEVCON1.
3) js-ipfs, the IPFS implementation on the browser, for Web3 Apps.
