Ethereum

Ever wondered how vitalik.eth.limo works?

- .limo is just a regular server, but it acts as an intermediary for IPFS pages

- Vitalik uploaded his blog to IPFS and set its content hash on his ENS name

- When you visit vitalik.eth.limo, the .limo server looks up the content hash on Ethereum using his ENS, fetches the blog from IPFS, and serves it back to your browser as a regular webpage

Did I get that right @greg?

Follow up -> Brave and Opera natively support IPFS and Ethereum node queries

No need for .limo - just type vitalik.eth in the address bar to load his blog directly from IPFS

How it works:
- The browser queries Ethereum to resolve vitalik.eth via ENS and get the IPFS content hash
- It fetches the blog directly from IPFS using the content hash
- The content loads into your browser with the address bar showing the IPFS content hash (http://ipfs.io/ipfs/bafy...)

We need to get some Brave/Opera devs onto Farcaster. (cc @dwr.eth)
