This might be true for a service with a basic setup of providing the same address for deposits. If they did it the right way, they would provide a unique address each time. Such a list of addresses is only known to the key holder unless the

Exactly. The difficult part of creating these kind of value systems isn't just providing more beneficial incentives. It's also about providing the right combination of incentives that remove (as much as possible) any malicious int

You might be misunderstanding my position. I think IPFS is great and should be used. But this specific project is not really attending to any problems. It's in the core functionality of IPFS to be able to host a file and the http proxy

Yes it does. But I don't believe this app is using any actual seeding mechanisms of IPFS from a user perspective. Which is why i'm asking about where the nodes would be to make this distributed and decentralised. My guess is that

Sure, I guess the difference is, torrents have an inherent mechanism of becoming distributed. Once someone else has a whole/part of the file, they begin seeding immediately (unless stopped of course). In the case of this app, I just re

I'm trying to figure out how this would be decentralised. As far as I understand, merely hosting something on IPFS doesn't make it decentralised if there is only one node. - Where is my file hosted when I receive it? - Has your se

Oh I see. So low end devices in india which are predominantly android smart phones do not have the capacity to cache 500kb of frequently used JS? Reducing the overall page size of a given page doesn't help Optimizing rendering for cont

It is helping this when you consider all the JS is cached because they've visited an AMP page before.

So slow page load speed is a non problem and speeding up delivering content is not a solution? Whether you like it or not, if you search on Google, you are using THEIR platform and you are THEIR user. What they have determined is that their
