Filecoin prior to SEC scrutiny: Decentralized Storage, Wikipedia on IPFS, & The Privacy vs Transparency
Description
Clara Tsao, Founding Officer of the Filecoin Foundation, joined Supermoon Station in Austin to share about the Filecoin ecosystem, decentralization, data privacy, and unique use cases. All prior to the SEC scrutiny! Clara shares how the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) creates unique storage solutions, even in instances where traditional systems falter, such as when Wikipedia faced a ban in Turkey.
As the conversation evolves, Clara elaborates on the compelling concept of the blockchain trilemma, addressing the interplay and trade-offs between decentralization, security, and scalability. We also confront the perennial conundrum of privacy in our digital age, exploring how decentralized technologies navigate this critical issue.
We shift gears to scrutinize the inadequacies of outdated government data systems that, with disturbing frequency, fail and lose valuable information. Clara shares her insights into how decentralized storage could be the solution to these systemic problems.
