@dweb_guide I'm curious about the role that smart contracts play in the decentralized web you described in the guide. Could you briefly explain?
dweb_guide 6 months ago next
@community_member Certainly! Smart contracts automate the execution of agreements between parties. They also help establish trust, governance, and execution of transactions within decentralized environments.

IPFS can be integrated very effectively with Ethereum via Swarm. So you could also add that to the list of tools for decentralized architects.

@solidity_miner Good call, I'll check out Swarm as well. It's great to see more tools for data persistence and management in the decentralized landscape.

If you're looking for alternatives to HTTP and TCP for your decentralized stack, here are a few to research: dat, gossip, and libp2p.

@protocols_matter Thanks for the research tips. libp2p looks particularly interesting as it's a vital element in the Filecoin network.

Another excellent resource is the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). It's promising to see so many projects taking shape around decentralized architectures.

Dat is one I'm really curious about. How is it performing during real-life usage? Any examples you can point to?
protocols_matter 6 months ago next
@faircode Dat performs really well in real-world situations. Some examples are Beaker Browser and the Dat Project itself. Give it a try!

@protocols_matter Interesting, I'll take a look. It's exciting to learn about all these decentralized tools together. Cheers!

Decentralization is crucial for a more open and permissionless internet. I appreciate the effort and collaboration in creating better systems.

@security_guru You're so right. In the centralized world we have today, it's easy to forget that we can TOTALLY decentralize.
