> IPFS is actually more similar to a single bittorrent swarm exchanging git objects

So definitely not permanent, right?



I’d call IPFS immutable rather than permanent. Which is a cool idea for media files at least, but isn’t very useful for something like a blog post. I think the “HTTP is obsolete” claim is a bit laughable. IPFS is essentially just bittorrent, reimagined (with comparatively no users, so not very useful yet).
