IPFS linking #113

Closed mrsmkl closed 5 years ago

mrsmkl commented 5 years ago

It might be slow to find files that are uploaded to IPFS. To solve this, Truebit nodes should link their IPFS addresses. To do this, one solution is to have

  1. Contract that can be used to keep track of IPFS addresses
  2. A tool that can be used to post own IPFS address to this contract
  3. A tool that gets IPFS addresses from this contract and connects to them

Command to get own IPFS address: ipfs id Command to link to another IPFS address: ipfs swarm connect <address>
