- kevincox 4y agoNot really if you want mutability. IPNS "records" have a TTL so you need someone with the key actively re-publishing them. I guess in theory you could publish for a very long time but you risk issues of someone maliciously re-sharing an older record that hasn't expired. I guess once you die you can hope that someone has recorded the last version so you can "move" from IPNS to a regular CID. But IDK how much I would want to rely on that for long-term legacy especially if the TTL on your IPNS record is shirt. Although I guess IPNS records are small enough that it would be fairly easy to set up a service that recorded all published IPNS records. Maybe publish it as a merkle tree so it is infeasible to tamper with old records.
- generalizations 4y agoIf this is a 500 year old legacy, I don't think mutability is a criteria. Seems it's more a question of if anyone's going to care enough to host it.
- kevincox 4y agoI meant that you likely want mutability while you live. Then an archive once you die.
