Abstract: The current Internet is great, but it's fragile, insecure, centralized, and even censored in some places. A variety of new and old technologies exist to address these problems, and with the recent wave of interest in decentralization it looks like we're finally moving towards a new iteration of the Internet in the form of IPFS, the Inter-Planetary File System. IPFS and its surrounding technologies could take us from a location-addressed system to a content-addressed and peer-to-peer one, and bring with it all the ensuing benefits: speed, security, scalability (even to multiple planets), robustness to high latency, and reduced trust and reliance on the centralized backbone of the internet.
