ipfs

River.ph is a new media protocol built on the EVM and Celestia. Co-founders @salief and @tranqui.eth join me on the latest web3galaxybrain.com to discuss the art and architecture of building River.

per the correction this uses /ipfs

Looks like channels are indexed ipfs hashes. Super interesting approach!

IPFS gateways serve content from the network. Suspend your understanding of that and tell me what you wish IPFS did or could do.

Why couldn't you train an llm on CIDs to approximately render the underlying file, even if it isn't exact?

IPFS 👏 IS 👏IN👏THE👏HOUSE

For @ethglobal Scaling Ethereum 2024, I built an interactive explorer for @ethsign's attestation graph!

Accounts and Schemas are nodes, and each Attestation is a set of directed edges.

Stack:
sigma.js + Graphology
SvelteKit + Svelte 5 beta
TypeScript
vanilla CSS
SignScan API (reverse-engineered from scan.sign.global)

It’s cool to be able to easily compare usage of @ethsign schemas stored on /ipfs compared to other onchain and offchain locations.

Bringing Verifiable Trust to Distrusted Networks

This is a project I first started thinking about more than 2 years ago. We finally prioritized it recently and got it across the finish line. We are the first and only IPFS provider to give you this level of detail and analytics into how your gateway is being used. https://www.pinata.cloud/blog/introducing-analytics

We’re having some issues with image uploads due to an API provider this AM.

Let us know when you’re ready to move to IPFS, V 😉

Love everything Protocol Labs has done, mostly. But NFT.storage never made much sense to me. It was a loss leader to onboard Filecoin data. Just got an email that it is effectively shutting down in its current form. If you need to migrate, Pinata makes it easy. Hit me up.

my therapist: what does security mean to you?
me: content addressing and distributed storage

We all need a little content addressable therapy.

Knocked out something I get asked time to time: pre-generating a CID before uploading it to Pinata. Took 15 minutes of spare time to figure it out, will put it in the Pinata docs later!

Blobs only last 18 days? No problem. Archiving blobs on IPFS is so easy you can do it in a frame 🖼️ 

Paste in either a blob or transaction link from blobscan.com, upload, and click on the link to see them on IPFS!

So, we all agree 4844 blob data should be on IPFS yea?

People often think of IPFS’s core immutability feature as inflexible. However, when you dive deep into S3’s object storage, it’s pretty inflexible too.
