Today's
agenda,
as
I
mentioned,
we
have
a
ton
of
speakers
and
they're
going
to
have
to
go
real
real
fast.
So
first
we
get
to
have
working
group
updates
on
what
they've
achieved.
A
Over
the
past
year,
we
had
a
little
bit
of
you
know,
shift
within
the
working
groups
themselves,
so
some
people
may
be
speaking
for
working
groups
from
the
beginning
of
q1.
I
know
that
january
2020
feels
insanely
long
ago
at
this
moment,
but
we'll
try
and
give
a
good
round
up
on
all
of
the
amazing
things
that
were
shipped
across
ipves
project
in
the
past
year,
and
then
we
also
have
the
the
kind
of
part.
A
Two
of
our
agenda
for
today
is
a
lot
of
awesome,
lightning
talks
from
people
across
the
ecosystem,
textile
pinata,
three
box,
birdie
and
fleeq,
telling
us
about
all
of
the
new
things
happening
on
their
projects
and
in
their
corners
of
the
ipvs
ecosystem.
To
give
us
a
look
back
at
all
of
the
amazing
things
that
happened.
A
Today's
theme
is
reflecting
on
2020
so
expect
that
as
a
common
theme
across
all
of
the
presentations
that
you
will
hear
today,
to
give
you
a
little
bit
of
a
preview.
I
have
a
couple
like,
I
think,
four
top
level
things
and
highlights
that
I
wanted
to
share
about
kind
of
what
I
see
looking
back
from
the
end
of
2020,
on
all
of
the
things
that
we
have
accomplished
this
year,
that
I
think
really
stand
out
and
put
the
project
kind
of
on
a
new
trajectory
as
we
go
into
2021.
A
A
Web3
has
always
had
a
little
bit
of
a
challenge
when
it
comes
to
actually
making
it
accessible
to
all
types
of
developers
to
make
use
of
this
new
technology.
We
really
saw
this
starting
to
cross
the
chasm
great
work
from
folks,
like
ens,
unstoppable
domains
and
fleeq
to
make
this
really
accessible
and
easy
for
people
to
take
any
website
and
throw
it
up.
There
were
new
tools
for
uploading
to
ipfs.
There
were
templates,
there
was,
you
know,
github
integrations
forestry
like
it's.
A
It
makes
your
life
so
much
easier
as
a
developer,
and
we
really
saw
that
that
turned
into
many
many
more
people
being
attracted
to
this
space
and
being
able
to
make
use
of
it.
At
the
same
time,
we
also
saw
some
some
pretty
cool
new
things
being
built
in
the
the
web,
app
space
and
so
origen
made
it
really
easy
to
put
up
a
d
web
shop
and
brave
use
that
for
their
swag
store
and
then
opera
went
a
step
further
and
full-on
embedded
ipfs
colon
slash,
flash
support
on
their
android
browser.
A
A
Second,
second
part
of
the
first
quarter,
so
kind
of
the
may
made
timeline
was
huge
performance
gains,
and
this
had
all
been
in
the
works
for
a
really
long
time
and
was
very
much
based
on
the
the
feedback
and
pain
points
that
had
been
being
experienced
across
the
whole
ecosystem.
But
looking
at
some
of
the
the
bottlenecks
in
use
of
ipfs
and
making
large
imp
performance
improvements
that
really
put
those
to
rest,
which
is
phenomenal.
A
The
big
focus
here
was
content,
routing
or
finding
stuff
in
the
network
and
how
to
make
it
real,
fast
and
hey
congrats
to
the
whole
team.
We
did
make
it
real
fast.
I'm
sure
you'll
hear
more
about
this
from
jacob
later,
but
we
went
from
you
know
many
many
seconds
can't
even
benchmark
how
how
many
seconds
it
was
down
to
1.5
on
for
our
95th
percentile
of
seconds
to
find
stuff
in
the
ips
network.
A
We
were
making
and
and
help
really
drive
our
attention
to
the
points
that
needed
optimizing
and
make
sure
that
it
was,
you
know,
actually
going
to
solve
the
needs
of
people
in
a
large
hundred
thousand
node
network,
which
is
a
big
deal
toward
the
second
half
of
this
year.
A
big
focus
over
the
past
couple
of
ipves
releases
and
some
of
the
work
in
lapid
p
land
as
well,
has
been
around
standardization
and
hardening.
A
So,
as
you
probably
have
have
seen
in
the
release,
notes
a
ton
of
new
things
launched
within
the
protocol
to
bring
us
up
to
new
standards.
We
have
quick
by
default.
We
have
tls
1.3
by
default.
We
added
noise
across
both
js
and
go
implementations,
and-
and
this
is
now
across
all
of
the
different
implementations
within
the
p2p
and
we
deprecated
sekio.
So
that's
like
a
huge
level
up
for
the
protocol
in
terms
of
just
having
really
good
stable
standards
and
then
kind
of
on
the
lip
p2p
side.
A
So
falcoin,
audius
and
eth2
have
all
been
launching
using
ipfs
and
libpdp
in
the
case
of
e2,
as
kind
of
the
core
building
blocks
of
their
networks,
and
that's
been
super
exciting
to
see,
and
we
have
a
great
time
working
with
these
communities
and
we
are
much
stronger
together.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
all
of
the
improvements
that
you
helped
make
to
these
core
building
blocks.
A
So
more
people
can
gain
the
value
from
them
as
well
would
be
remiss
if
I
didn't
give
you
a
tiny
peek
into
some
of
these
year-over-year
metrics.
It's
really
cool
to
look
back
and
be
like
wow.
This
has
grown
so
much
just
looking
at
the
the
number
of
people
who
are
making
use
of
the
ipfs
network.
Every
week
we've
seen
a
4x
increase
in
2020,
which
is
super
cool.
We've
now
have
about
two
million
unique
weekly
users
accessing
our
ipfs
http
gateway,
which
is
just
one
many.
A
Thanks
to
a
lot
of
awesome
events
like
hack
fs
and
the
the
git
coin
apollo
and
other
things
like
that,
we've
seen
hundreds
of
new
dapps
enter
the
ipf's
ecosystem,
building,
really
cool
stuff
and
really
taking
it.
The
next
step
forward.
So
we're
excited
to
have
even
more
of
those
folks
presenting
at
my
peoples
meetups
over
the
next
year.
A
All
right,
quick
reminder
in
case
this
doesn't
get
brought
up
anywhere
else.
Thank
you
so
much
to
everyone,
who's
participating
in
our
project
planning
process.
There
are
over
20-
probably
I'm
out
of
date
at
this
point,
because
I
think
there's
more
being
added
every
single
night,
but
as
of
last
counting
27
themes
submitted
to
the
project
planning
process.
Commenting
and
participating
in
here,
I
think
over
35
community
members
are
participating.
