RE: Decentralization is not binary

in #protocols8 years ago

Why can't you call a protocol struggling? IPFS is struggling on performance. Services actively aren't using the IPFS protocol because of lack of speed and uptime. Again, once filecoin is launched the hope is that will change because more IPFS nodes will have incentives to run in the network.

Would you say HTTP is struggling? Someone might not be running enough Apache servers, but the protocol is just fine.

I get your point for decentralized systems, it's actually a mix of the protocol AND active nodes. I'm excited by IPFS-the-protocol, because it's a non blockchain based system, and we're going to need a mix of different approaches.

Sure, you'd say HTTP was struggling if it wasn't getting adoption.
