I'm working on developing the content-addressable internet (CAi). The core CAi principles are
- Addressing Immutable Data: Using cryptographic hashes of content as an address.
- Addressing Mutable Data: Using decentralized identities and digital signatures.
- Protocol Agnostic: Validating messages regardless of the protocol used to receive them.
- Scalability: Enhancing algorithms and software without altering the source of truth data.
- Future Proof: Implementing mechanisms to support evolving hash functions and decentralized identities.
- Verifyible Social Connections: New connections can be verified by the connection graph, and a trust rating can be assigned. Also, trusted connections can restore stolen or lost decentralized identity and revert fraud transactions.
Current OSS projects that I'm working on
- Blockset is a personal CAS with unique properties:
- Utilizes a unique hash function to detect data duplication, reducing storage size and network traffic.
- Can be synchronized via simple file copy.
- FunctionalScript is a purely functional subset of JavaScript. One of the goals of the language is to support CAi, similar to how JavaScript supports the current location-based internet.
