Using IPFS in bisq #2845
Comments
I like it. In particular I think the proposal data for the DAO that's currently hosted on github would benefit. If that's lost it won't be possible to follow the reasoning behind the historical DAO votes. |
@sqrrm , thanks for the input. I have revised point number 5. |
That's a great idea to make Bisq even more decentralized, it's a good measure for future, if using a DEX or making a DEX becomes illegal all work will be already saved in a decentralized file system that is IPFS. |
@JotaPe , thanks for your observation! Please feel free to share this to many more in the community. I am welcoming all sorts of inputs from everyone. |
I would like to add a few words of caution about relying too heavily on IPFS for hosting files that are critical to the Bisq project and the DAO, particularly concerning the assumption that it would be a solution to future censorship:
I am not opposed to the idea of using IPFS as a backup in case the centralized services we use decide to censor the project, but it would be best as a mirror rather than a primary copy, in my opinion. We should also work on the conservative assumption that if our centralized services (GitHub, DNS registrar, web hosts etc.) decide to censor the Bisq project, that censorship on IPFS will be the next risk to address.

@reipichu , thanks. You have made valid observations. Before I address them, let me expect some more thought by the community members & I will surely revert on your inputs. |
Really valid points, the IPFS is a protocol, some people are already trying to push some software to make it more secure and anonymous like using I2P gateways and TOR gateways too. |

Hey guys, what can we do to keep this warm? |
I would like to contribute as much as I can. Any plans before that would be nice. |
Copy/paste of material to an onion site may be a good first step ? |

This issue has been automatically closed because of inactivity. Feel free to reopen it if you think it is still relevant. |
Great progress has been made on bisq so far & I am very much eagered to see the full DAO functionalities on the bitcoin blockchain.
In this regard, I think its important to re-consider how to handle the knowledge sources for the DAO.
Hence, I am requesting the community to consider the following applications of IPFS in the bisq network, especially from a DAO perspective:
It would be great if we can share our thoughts & come up with more ideas, and derive the best out of IPFS. Looking forward to all your thought, thanks.
