This is incredibly well explained, thanks a lot! I'm writing an article and I'm definitely linking this video as a source.
yes the best source for easy understanding!
As a begginer on the crypto technology, also on the decentralized technology I agree. The explanation is simple and clear. Thank you.
Honestly this channel keeps you updated about all the cutting edge technology
wow, this is some top-notch explanation. I think it may even be at the point that you could use it to explain IPFS to an elderly person.
just need a dutch version and i can show my mom lol :p
The most articulate and lucid explanation of IPFS I've heard. Thanks
Yes please! More videos like this and a video about Filecoin! I love it!
A long time ago, we used to download content (Movies and Music mostly) with IRC, Kazaa, and other apps/platforms. The files would be downloaded from beginning to end, serially. I worked with a team to create torrent downloads, where you can have multiple connections for a single download file and that the download would come in as "chunks" in no specific order, just fastest, best connection.
The only credit we get as a team, is the message boards we collaborated on, so Long ago. This torrent method of data exchange now rules the internet world. Blockchain would never have existed without this tech. I don't care for credit, I am just SO HAPPY to see how far we have come since the 1990s.
I should've subscribed a long time ago. Just did. Your videos are always brilliantly done. I'm going to go do even more research because this video was that interesting. Well done, Sir!
This is really well explained. Best video on that topic on RUclips and I searched a lot here!
well put together and easy to understand, thank you!
Very clear and nicely paced. Good job!
Wow that was great, this smooth visualization and incredible information partitioning.
Bravo
Very good explanation... Congrats Savjee !!!!!
Wooo incredible, you have resolved many doubts that I had. Thanks a lot.
For sure bring more info about this, amazing content congrats!
8 mins for a file download? I was born of this!
great video. so simple yet complete. thanks
Awesome explanation, concise, quick, engaging
Nice, very good information and explained in a correctly way to understand INTERPLANETARY.
Very well explained. Good job!
Keep em coming man, you're amazing!
A brilliant presentation. Thanks a lot 🙏
0:49 "national security security" 😂
very simple and informative ! Thanks for a shared video!
Very clear and useful. Thanks!
Thank You! Very helpful!
Very great explanation with details. Thanks.
Damn! What an explanation and great video editing! Really nailed it @Simply Explained ! Thanks a lot!
Reminds me of the early days of the Gnutella networks, Kaza, Bearshare and other P2P clients. They had hashing of files too for verification but I don't recall a file size limitation. There was no incentive involved for persistent nodes however.
Good days
it's like cdn, when you request a resource, you will get it from nearest location, not the original server.
This is actually one of the use-cases mentioned on their website :)
@@boomerz2478 Except, IPFS doesn't try to appeal to the crypto investors to make token money :^)
@@boomerz2478 FileCoin is literally designed to be the opposite way around lmao.
It is to give people an incentive to use IPFS and serve those files.
Additionally, having a browser-mined coin for those _viewing_ but not _serving_ would accomplish nothing.
The entire purpose of IPFS is to have people download and serve to increase availability (and as a result, speed).
Additionally, it's pretty peer-to-peer.
If I visit an IPFS-enabled website, I download the stuff it needs, then serve them myself (until I delete it ofc).
Also, they can't really close down or block IPFS, which is also what it was designed for.
I mean, how can they block it? Just look at BitTorrent, they aren't able to block that either and well, torrents are far, far more notorious for illegal stuff.
They can't close it down either, because it's open-source, so people would just fork and continue on as usual.
And it probably already hosts a bunch of illegal stuff, you can never prevent that.
Then again, every "censorship resistant protocol" is prone to this.
Just look at ActivityPub (which is a W3C-recommended protocol), BitTorrent, TOR (more or less), Most cryptocurrencies etc. etc.
And even *if* you manage to block it, it's a matter of time before a workaround will be found, which is exactly why those protocols are so powerful.
@UCv3D-0cNQeL7BRPE5RpO2LA Correlation does not equal causation.
IPFS can be ran standalone just fine like I do.
It wasn't designed to give more money to the whales, it's just a side-effect of FileCoin, which is a seperate project.
Also, I never said IPFS was *fast*, I only said that by having more people serve a file, the *faster* it becomes.
Faster, being a relative term.
Also, they haven't blocked torrents lmao.
In Germany, you can torrent just fine (I use torrents to send stuff like documents and some tools I made between a bunch of friends).
Yes, they have blocked sites like TPB but they have not blocked the BitTorrent protocol.
They can fine you based on things like finding you in the DHT for a specific (known illegal) file and/or scraping you from trackers.
They can't fine you for using the protocol itself (else using the Blizzard Launcher would get you fined since that uses the BitTorrent protocol under the hood as well).
Also, they can't really done it that easily.
How would they? Blocking IPFS specifically would mean blocking the underlying connection protocol (be it TCP/IP or UDP).
They can block commonly used ports, but at that point, just swap ports.
They can block every port but the ones they allow, but at that point, a lot of different stuff will also start breaking.
The Great Firewall of China does exactly this, block a lot of ports and only allowing a select few, that they can monitor heavily (for obvious reasons).
Do that in, let's say Germany or The Netherlands and well... you're bound to cause massive uproar.
And ofc, as you know, in China, they'd probably just gun you down if you start rioting buuut that's a different topic.
Yea ehm... suddenly your "most of your points are just incomplete and largely wrong" starts backfiring to yourself...
@Phoenix im looking into doing this as we speak. im commenting so i can get notifications on this thread
Very easily explained, thanks sir 👏🙌
This is a great video...Thank you for making it...
Very nice video, thank you!! :)
Another Great Video... Becoming a huge fan now.. Looking forward to FileCoin video..Great Work
Yes please, do a filecoin video!!!😁
Ben I wonder what is going on with them, they have been utterly quiet.
Looking forward to video on filecoin video.
IPFS is cool but Filecoin is a scam.
If they were not scammers they would've used Bitcoin to pay people.
Bitcoin is the only money that no one can get for free. Every other form of money that someone somewhere is getting for free but you are presented at face value is a scam.
If every project starts creating it's own coin we end up with the same situation that Bitcoin was created to fix - every country with it's own money and banks getting rich for moving money around, where exchanges will be the new banks and they will get robbed and lose people's money. It is actually happening already, search "exchange hack" and you will find articles about dozens of hacks with billions of dollars stolen from the people and all because of greedy people wanting to print their own money by creating their own coin for their project. Completely killing the point of the blockchain innovation. >.
@@dkf2711 are you saying only Bitcoin is not a scam... Why Bitcoin? why not Ethrium or XRP or Tether or litecoin or EOS or TRON or Stellar or Monero, what about Dash or Tezos... etc etc etc.... Is Bitcoin special in some weird way, please share.
IIIRotor Bitcoin was created to make the world better. Everything else was made to enrich the creators. Bitcoin is like Linux, it’s open and it’s community driven. The other projects are like Microsoft, they are businesses that have marketing budget and use it to create the perception of community that OneCoin and BitConnect did and also out of the crypto world Theranos which was the Ethereum equivalent in biotech. There is a reason why everyone that builds open source software builds new layers on top of Linux and not incompatible completely new kernel operating systems that you can show off idling on the desktop and say they are faster and more secure. That stuff works for startup scams which in crypto are ICOs but in general in the computer world if you want to build new software you do that on top of the most secure and stable kernel like Linux so that if your software fails the whole system doesn’t collapse. All useful new functionality is developed on bitcoin, it has smart contracts, anonymity features and scaling optimisations that actually work and are designed to be long term solutions. Everything else is recycling bitcoin improvement proposals from 7+ years ago that got rejected and is monetising on people not doing their research and throwing money at the next pump.
brilliant video and love how this can circumvent the ridiculous censorship!!
making work life much easier. Thank you guys
Incredible, easy explanation
Great video again. Yes would like one on filecoin too. Thanks!
Thanks thanks thanks !
Can't be explained more clearly !
that's pretty well explained, thanks
Great video....very informative.
Excellent explanation
Thanks. Right level of technical and popular content information for me. KeepSmiling 😊🌺
Love your videos, please do more
Awesome video! Simply Explained
Awesome video! Hope makeing more information video plz!
I really like this thanks.
Really cool stuff!!
Can you make a video on the Oyster protocol? It takes a slightly different approach to the same goal of ifps, also adding volatile memory functionality. It is built on top of the IOTA tangle so could potentially be distributed across all smart devices in the near future
thanks for sharing. very easy to understand Filecoin.
incredible explanation.
nice... thanks for sharing
Very good video. 👍🏼
Very interesting, thanks.
Wow, that was a GREAT video. I found it so informative. I had heard of Filecoin, but until now I didn't get it. I didn't know that it was built on top of IPFS, which actually makes a little more sense now that I think back on it....Thank you for the exlaination!
Amazing work !!
I have seen all of your video
Keep it up
God bless you unconditionally :)
Thank you for watching them all. Really appreciate that! Always keep learning!
Damn your explanation was so good!
Excellent concise explanation! One note at 1: 30 the web is already distributed. I believe a more accurate term is "decentralized".
Thank you for this lucid explanation.
Thank you verry much, now i got the idea of how all of this works. Especially the way you talked about the decentralized internet.
Can you please make a video explaining the work of Git?
nicely explained
Very good video.
you guys have really stood up on your tagline; simply explained.
Thanks! But it's not 'guys'. It's a solo operation 😬
@@simplyexplained wow! One an army
Awesome content, waiting for filecoin
I would love to learn more about this.
Excellent
I would really enjoy a video on file coin. I had not heard of it before
Excellent explanation thanks for the video. Can you please post a video about how to create two private notes using IPFS
best explanation ever
helpful .. good job
great video! more on FileCoin please
Thanks for this video. It can help countries with poor internet delivery online education!!
If IPFS was really made to have fast internet on other planets, I think we hurry too much to develop it 😄.
Nice video, very well explained.
it wasn't. it was made to provide unavailability-resistance, temper-resistance, and censorship-resistance. all of which are desperately needed in the current economical and political landscape.
@@michalbotor that's true, thank you for the answer!
I love it. Is there a mesh network device ideal to pair with this for a fully free web?
good video, and i want to learn delegate proof of stake and other consensus mechanism , thanks so much
Hi Savjee, I want to know about filecoin. And thank you for the cool Simply Explained video drops.
Thank you for this introduction, it's very promising! Keep us updated!
Thank you for your explanation as always! One question tho, what if I put a file online and I want to delete it? Let's say an embarrassing picture of me that finally don't assume anymore. It's going to be on the network forever, yeah?
Awesome video.. I enthusiast to know more about Filecoin
I love this.
Yes, please do a video to explain FileCoin! :D
simply, Thank you.
The one thing that I keep looking for regarding web 3.0 is whether or not it can remove the need for centralized ISPs
Nice video sir. Could you please create a video demonstrating the coding of IPFS on an example?
I don't really get it about the "Versioning" capability of IPFS. I tried to find about committing file or uploading new version of old file to IPFS, but I can't find how it is really done (I still can't imagine how it is done practically, like is it automatic or we need a specific command to do that?). Is this versioning done by IPFS automatically, or is it done with other software/add-on/something that is separated from IPFS? I've also read about Commit File Object of IPFS, but I don't really understand about it and how it is implemented.
Anyways, your video is so good. I am actually still learning english, but your video is clear enough for me to understand. Salam dari Indonesia 😇
Excelent!!!
What happens if someone puts up illegal information on IPFS and no-one can remove it?
I think the current answer is blacklisting hashes. Nodes would have to voluntarily accept to ignore/block replication and sharing of hashes for blacklisted files.
@@schok51 so centralized again
@@projectpegasus1297 how so? Each node can individually blacklist hashes. No need for a centralized party.
And blacklists can be managed as ipfs objects(IPNS dynamic pointers to files on ipfs).
@@projectpegasus1297 of course one expect those blacklists to be created and maintained by some legal entity, but we can imagine different entities providing different blacklists.
Yes, please do a video on Filecoin
Ok but about the versioning- how will you know about a file v2 if youre content-addressing file v1?
Assuming the old links to the new, but how there will be other copies v1 which dont link to v2.
Is there active discovery for versioning (i.e. if i commit v2 i update anyone who queried v1 from me) or is it just passive? (ie anyone who will query v1 from me in the future will be made aware of v2)?
Also how would merge conflicts work if someone else created their own v2?
Pretty sure HBO's Silicon Valley show was about this last night. lol
cool
yup this is what pied piper wanted to do :p
filecoin looks great thanks!
no need of watching any other related to this. Just the single video has cleared the whole concept.
Will IFPS make it possible for nodes to only store part of a file instead of the whole file? So many nodes can be access simultaneously to rebuild a large file. And to make it harder to destory a file since it is broken up between many nodes.
My application that I am building will incentivize people to run IPFS nodes. This is an absolute awesome technology!
Hey, thank you for making this video! I wander would u like to share the slides about this video?
what kind of softwarw do you use to make this animations?
awesome video and make another one about filecoin
Hi Sanjee, Please do few videos on BFT Consensus, DPos, Rift !
Hey! What are you using for build this animations
Good explained bro can u explain some more amazing things about filecoin
