Hello All,

As you have noticed our posts are becoming more frequent as we have more to share every week. We are happy to hear that a lot of you already use FortKnoxster with friends, family and business contacts. We are working around the clock to make it even better and better.

Now that our supporters have installed FortKnoxster, we have rolled out an Airdrop Campaign (beta) If we get most of the flaws and bugs out, we will introduce a second flight of the campaign. In the coming weeks you will see more and more marketing activities, (SEM, display, partnerships, referral, social media etc) So keep following us as FortKnoxster takes off….

Till the next! Eddy de Heij |CEO FortKnoxster

How to! The Billy Krepper Series Part 5

As we continue with our popular series with Billy Krepper, CTO of FortKnoxster here in series 5, he explains IPFS & FortKnoxster

To summarise:

Interplanetary File System (IPFS). It’s a peer-to-peer (p2p) method of storing and sharing information in a distributed way.

Data stored in IPFS is publicly available.

IPFS combines very well with the FortKnoxster platform as data (files) can be cached on the IPFS network making access faster and avoiding single point of failures, please remember these data or files are ALWAYS encrypted.

We currently implement IPFS on our own cluster and we use this to hold the data for our identity process, which is linked to the blockchain.

Making identity data publicly available and verifiable by anyone.

Looking ahead, FortKnoxster will also use IPFS as distributed storage.

We are looking very closely at the evolution of IPFS's javascript implementation as this will allow us to move storage process as close to the client/user as possible.

Allowing access to your data without needing a server, your machine will communicate directly with the IPFS network that will request, combine and decrypt your file(s) as needed. If you have any further questions about IPFS please ask in our TG group where Billy/Mickey are more than willing to help out.
