When you first add new content to IPFS, you're really just setting it up on your own machine in a format suitable for sharing via the IPFS protocol.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>When a user uploads data to the Ethereum network, as an example, the hash is then embedded on-chain always pointing to the immutable off-chain data on IPFS. Since the blockchain can't handle large data IPFS solves this, providing the much-needed data scalability on the blockchain.<\/p>\n<p>However, on IPFS, the data is <a href=\"https:\/\/hackernoon.com\/a-beginners-guide-to-ipfs-20673fedd3f\">stored locally on the system of the uploader<\/a>, and is shared to other users on the protocol.<\/p>\n<p>Structurally, IPFS is more similar to a torrent protocol than a blockchain network. The main advantage of IPFS is that unlike the Bittorrent protocol, as an example, it works as a swarm of node operators, making data processing more efficient.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_129552\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-129552\" style=\"width: 518px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-129552\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1.png\" alt=\"ethereum IPFS\" width=\"518\" height=\"286\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-129552\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Traditional internet compared to IPFS<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Here's why IPFS works well with blockchain<\/h2>\n<p>On an immutable blockchain network like Ethereum, IPFS users can upload hashes pointing to the data stored to the data stored on IPFS protocol to Ethereum.

This timestamps and secures content without having to put the data itself on the chain.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Over the long run, as the trend shifts from centralized to decentralized systems starting with the shift from normal currencies to Bitcoin, IPFS and the decentralized web would provide an alternative to the existing web system.<\/p>\n<p>Some countries, like Russia and China, have already <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/ba94c2bc-6e27-11ea-9bca-bf503995cd6f\">developed a centralized version of HTTP<\/a> called the Chinese New IP, which makes systems like IPFS more favorable.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_129570\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-129570\" style=\"width: 401px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-129570\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/temporal-minio-amazons3.jpg\" alt=\"Temporal, Minio, Amazon S3\" width=\"401\" height=\"213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/temporal-minio-amazons3.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/temporal-minio-amazons3-300x160.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 401px) 100vw, 401px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-129570\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Users now have the ability to store data on IPFS via the MinIO API (which is an Amazon S3 API).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Derrick Foote, CEO of enterprise IPFS platform <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/products\/temporal\/\">Temporal<\/a> told CryptoSlate:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;New breakthroughs like <a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/temporal-cloud\/introducing-s3x-endless-ipfs-dynamic-possibilities-stream-videos-host-dynamic-websites-f0072127070f\">Temporal's S3X<\/a> are now allowing Endless IPFS Dynamic Possibilities such as Streaming Videos, Host Dynamic Websites and more.
