  • cid

    Self-describing content-addressed identifiers for distributed systems

    • Verification would require more data than CID itself provides (ipld document layout, chunking algorithm, max chunk sizes...).

    See https://github.com/multiformats/cid/issues/22

  • in-web-browsers

    Tracking the endeavor towards getting web browsers to natively support IPFS and content-addressing

    • As others have said, it's not as straightforward because the CID is a hash of the data's encoding which is not the same as the data itself (it is chunked into pieces to facilitate incremental verifiability, better caching, etc.).

    Here is the master issue on the IPFS side tracking "verifiable gateway responses": https://github.com/ipfs/in-web-browsers/issues/128. As you can see, there are significant technical challenges but consistent progress is being made.
