dcrd VS ipfs

If you are referring solely to fully-validating node implementation, then, yes, dcrd is currently the only fully-validating node implementation.

This month in the journal, Decred gains a seat at the political table when our timestamping service is used to combat fake news. The development team release a series of updates for Decred Core, DCRDEX and decred.org.

Decred Journal - August 2022 is out! Decred is in full build mode but where to start! An overhaul of the decred.org website? Politeia new release? A massive upgrade for DCRDEX? Or the many fixes and improvements... Don't wonder, read up! https://www.decredmagazine.com/decred-journal-august-2022/

Is that the Decred logo?

Decred is also a great coin to do PoS with! It's very easy to do with the GUI wallet as well.

You should check out Decred https://decred.org/. I am not a financial advisor, I just like the cryptocurrency. Always research on your own to make an informed decision.

Looking at your skillset, one idea is to start getting familiar with Decred by running a full node. Or even run a vspd instance to help the network and earn you some atoms in the process. Other ideas I have written up earlier is to package and publish Decred software in popular repositories, or look into status monitoring of network's health. There's really a lot to be built once you start seeing it.

> CDNs

If you think IPFS is trying to "re-spin CDNs as their invention", I'm pretty sure you misunderstand what IPFS. The homepage is a great starting point if you're curious rather than antagonistic: https://ipfs.tech/

> IPFS doesn't solve persistence of data

I don't think it claims to solve this either? What it does claim to solve is the persistence of identifiers of data.

> doesn't solve churn in p2p systems

What P2P system has ever done so or even claimed to have done so?

We will create a web app that will let users mint a NFT in one click: creating an AI art from a prompt, storing it on IPFS and mint the unique NFT in Polygon so you can see it on OpenSea. Pretty cool right ?

IPFS, which stands for Inter-Planetary File System, is a decentralized storage system where files are distributed among peers in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network. It operates on a "content addressable" model, meaning that each file is given a unique hash that serves as its identifier. By using this hash, you can retrieve any file from any IPFS node in the network.

Was thinking of something and figured it would be a good opportunity to ask here. With the censorship madness going on in the world and furry community included, I often worry if even places like e621 can remain free and open in the face of increasing pressure by increasingly angry and authoritarian crowds. For both this and other geek reasons I've been interested in decentralized internet technology for a long time, following projects like IFPS which I just love as a concept.

Using the Interplanetary File System, a real thing that exists today, designed for this purpose.

I post a lot about IPFS, I was using the 'ipfs mount' to virtually offer my entire collection from my NAS (on a private 'swarm' of course) to the remote stations.
