First, IPFS is awesome. IPFS is essentially providing a globally decentralized filesystem. Noms is providing (or hopes to provide) a database. By database, I mean: - small individual records - efficient queries, updates, and range scans - ability to support complex queries - ability to enforce structural data validity These are all things that IPFS could eventually grow to support, but in order to do it, I think it would have to grow into or layer something like noms on top.
