Description

We are trying to build a more stable and reliable network in the ipfs public network to improve the efficiency of the IPFS network for online services, which we call "Core Node Network".
The Core Node Network will divide IPFS into core and lite nodes, optimizing the access efficiency of online and offline data, as well as the optimization of data volume storage for different scenarios. At the same time, the Core Node Network is fully compatible with the IPFS public network for full connectivity. We will have more requirements for the nodes joining in the heavy node network (we call them core nodes), such as maintaining stable service delivery and operation in line with expectations. This allows the core node network to provide more stable and fast file services and more reliable file backups.
In addition, we are currently designing incentives for core nodes, permission control system based on core node network and blockchain, and data privacy security design, etc. Some of them have been implemented, but of course there is still a lot of work in progress.
Now we are willing to contribute the design ideas of this network and discuss them with everyone. Any criticism, suggestion or approval will be of great help to us, and if we mention anything inappropriate or have any problems, your suggestions and guidance will be most welcome and appreciated. We are also looking forward to receiving the community's approval and submitting more detailed designs for discussion with you to promote the development of the IPFS community and technology applications.
