A small but meaningful update: IPIP-0499 is now merged into the IPFS spec! We're introducing configuration profiles for CIDs. 🧩 🧵

Great DASLing Group bimonthly today! Lots of good things in motion, including: - A Perceptual Fingerprint (PFP) spec github.com/darobin/dasl... - A proposed storage layout spec github.com/darobin/dasl... - A webtil.es demo & overview To join the next one(s): luma.com/cid-congress

we already got kubo nodes embedded in our desktop apps github.com/plebbit/seedit Works pretty well

2026: The year of IFPS in the desktop

THIS IS HOW PEER TO PEER WORKS!

You can finally self-host IPFS at home 🏠✨ Major updates to Kubo, Boxo, and Helia. DHT Provide Sweep, AutoTLS, HTTP retrieval. Here's everything we shipped in 2025: ipshipyard.com/blog/2025-sh...

IFPS wishes you a merry Xmas. May all your Wanted Blocks be provided! 🌠

Looking at this list and I've contributed to all but two — IPFS and Matrix

My main branch now has holepunching implemented *inside* the QUIC stack. We've implemented the QUIC multipath draft to keep track of all the paths inside the QUIC networking stack. CI is green and we've already punched a lots of firewalls in the real world! #rustlang github.com/n0-computer/...

Sign-in to prove you're not a five year old version of Kubo.

Building on the @web3privacy.info @protocollabs.bsky.social Cypherpunk Retreat in September, we're excited to announce the first cohort of Cypherpunk Fellows... 🥁 🥜 Cashu Integration for ATProtocol 🗝️ Distributed MLS 🐬 Remote Attestation with Exported Authenticators 🍩 Simple Private Payment L2

go.bsky.app/RWSsG9c The IFPS starter pack is great to catch up on the ecosystem. Let me know if you know anyone that should be there but isn't!

Our very own @robin.berjon.com reports from his time at @eurosky.social's Eurosky Live in Berlin two weeks ago. There's a bright future for content addressing on tomorrow's web! ipfsfoundation.org/ipfs-at-euro...

Peergos is starting to get quite awesome. It's the only protocol I'm aware of that has 1) portable identity and data 2) portable social graphs 3) private data 4) private social graph 5) private metadata 6) E2EE (private data, even from your PDS) 7) Tamper proof data (even with compromised PDS)

🛳️ Kubo 0.39 is out! 🎯 DHT Sweep provider now default, self-hosting-friendly ⚡ Fast root CID providing, content findable in <1s 🔧 Auto UPnP recovery after router restarts 📊 New `ipfs provide stat` for monitoring 🖥️ RISC-V prebuilt binaries github.com/ipfs/kubo/releases/tag/v0.39.0

We published a blog post explaining how Provide Sweep enables self-hosted Kubo nodes to reliably advertise millions of CIDs to the Amino DHT with smooth, predictable resource usage. Now default in Kubo v0.39 after successful testing in v0.38. ipshipyard.com/blog/2025-dh...

But your Honor, if you only split this file in 256 KiB parts, hash them, prepend the length and the hash codec varint and the codec varint and use the result as the children of a dagpb protobuf containing a unixfs protobuf of type file, you will find that my client is unequivocally innocent!

Do not wait anymore. Add some cids to your life today!

We have just selected the main perk for the next IFPS conf.

Guess who wasn't down today? IFPS. And IFPS websites like ours.

We've got a new release out folks! github.com/Peergos/web-... This let you easily migrate servers with a single click! This of course keeps all your data, friends, and identity intact. There is also a way to request/pay for another server to live mirror your data.

Zensursula von der Leyen can rest now 😂

Ohhhh major leap for DHT announcements.

IPFS, libp2p, and related projects are adding incredible value to the developer ecosystem. ♥️

Bitswap workers get no vacation!

Congrats!

😬😬😬 who wants to adopt a cute project?

Anyone looking to adopt a battle-tested TypeScript polyglot? 🐙 Ex-PayPal, Amazon, Protocol Labs — raised the bar at Amazon, led OSS with ~60k–100k+ MAU, and helped shape IPFS & libp2p. Looking for a fun, high-impact project to code, mentor, and keep pushing systems (and people) forward. #adoptMe

Peergos now uses post-quantum encryption! A hybrid of x25519 and MLKEM is used to protect shared files (Unshared files were already quantum resistant). github.com/Peergos/web-...

Don't make the same mistake

IPFS is really cool guys. Building on it is hella fun!

Seriously what's wrong with these people

Great job! But I saw no memes in this presentation?

Hashberg kicking off to a strong start.

@piss.beauty showing off an early payments lexicon for ATProto at #Hashberg.

@b5.bsky.social is really rocking it at Hashberg.

Sad day for IPFS. RIP.

Store. Announce. Retrieve. You can only have 2.

Do you like big blocks and cannot slice? A thread and meeting invite: Big data / large files are where IPFS dedup & verification capabilities can shine. But current libraries can be bulky or awkward — memory allocation, chunking, CAR generation, etc. have all come up as pain points. lu.ma/78qjqo75

IPFS is the first protocol-level tech to be added to this watchlist! Not even BitTorrent is in there.

Our latest newsletter is packed to the gills. Just a few highlights: 🌈 More HTTP Support Across the IPFS Stack 🔮 Service Worker Gateways: P2P in the Browser with No Installs 🚅 20-40x Speedup for ipfs add in Kubo ✏️ IETF draft for CBOR/c-42 (including CIDs) newsletter.ipfs.tech/archive/ipfs...

"5 years of P2P web browser development" Mauve Signweaver with a great talk about the Agregore web browser, how it works, and how it's evolved over the past five years of development.
