Crypto developer proposes a solution to access dapps without censorship
Former developer of the Synthetix DeFi protocol, Liam Swans, has presented a solution for accessing banned decentralized applications (dapps) like Tornado Cash without censorship.
The problem, he says, is that the front-end applications interact with users through centralized DNS services and servers.
The Dappnet solution from Swans uses the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) decentralized file system and the Ethereum Name Service (ENS) domain name service.
The Dappnet client integrates into the browser and establishes BitTorrent-style P2P connections. The user does not need to configure anything. If the response node is blocked, there will always be another one in its place, the developer explained.
“For the first time, we can get a place on the Internet that cannot be taken from us, it does not rely on a single owner dictating what is allowed,” he wrote.
According to Lebedy, for the wide use of his solution, a number of improvements are needed, mainly on the IPFS side. It is necessary to simplify the deployment of the system node, improve development tools and create something like an accelerator for distributing content, he noted.
“It should be one click to visit deployed applications on .eth. You connect with ENS, GitHub, pay a decentralized IPFS accelerator, and boom, your dapp is available worldwide,” said Lebedy.
