Bitcoin Laag 3: Wat is die ondeurdringbare blaaier? Wanneer kan ons dit verwag?

The Impervious browser is upon us. The company will launch its most ambitious product at the Bitcoin 2022 conference in Miami, on April 7th. What is it, though? And, while you’re at it, what does Impervious do? Well, the company builds “tools and infrastructure for the P2P internet.” That is, the Internet without centralized intermediaries.

The company works over the Lightning Network, on bitcoin’s third layer. They already “released a bondel API's” which created “a programmatic layer for Bitcoin.” On that third layer, the Impervious browser lives. In die jongste uitgawe van hul nuusbrief, the company described what we can expect from it. And Bitcoinist is here to summarize it because we know how busy you are.

Die ondeurdringbare blaaier: jou portaal na die P2P-internet

Zoom, sonder Zoom.
Google Docs, sonder Google.
Medium, sonder Medium.
WhatsApp, sonder WhatsApp.
Betalings, sonder banke.
Identiteit, sonder die staat.

Impervious het reeds baie belowe in 'n Desember-twiet, naamlik: 

Zoom, sonder Zoom.
Google Docs, sonder Google.
Medium, sonder Medium.
WhatsApp, sonder WhatsApp.
Betalings, sonder banke.
Identiteit, sonder die staat.

Kan hulle egter aflewer? Blykbaar kan hulle. 

Is Bitcoin Layer 3 Even A Thing?

Nog 'n manier om te kyk na wat die maatskappy doen, volgens aan Jimmy Song, hulle "sal in wese elke Lightning-knoop 'n bediener sowel as 'n kliënt maak." Hy voeg dan by, "Dit lyk of die droom van 'n gedesentraliseerde internet voor ons oë opbou!" Kom ons neem egter 'n tree terug. 

What’s this “bitcoin layer 3” all about? The Ondeurdringbare dokumentasie stel dit eenvoudig:

“At layer one, there exists the Bitcoin network – money, deep storage, global root trust.

By laag twee bestaan ​​daar die Lightning Network – kontant, vloeibare betalings, eweknie-tot-eweknie-trust.

Op laag drie bestaan ​​daar die Impervious Network – toepassings, stromende mikrobetalings en nodusfederasie.”

Wat kan dit egter doen? Daarvoor haal ons aan Coindesk:

"'n "Laag 3" netwerk wat gebruik kan word om gedesentraliseerde virtuele privaat netwerke (VPN'e), boodskapplatforms, of selfs streaming video's of DJ's of podcasts op te stel. "Ek kan in China wees, of ek kan in Iran wees, en dit stel ons in staat om vrylik te praat sonder sensuur," verduidelik Chase Perkins, Impervious se stigter en uitvoerende hoof. 

Met ander woorde, soos die nuusbrief sê, "die Impervious API's stel enige toepassing of diens in staat om kriptografies veilige, sensuur- en toesigbestande data-oordragkanale te stroom."

Hoe werk die ondeurdringbare blaaier?

Die idee hier is dat die hele stelsel geïnkripteer is en nie op derde partye of sentrale owerhede staatmaak nie. Wonderlik, maar hoe werk dit? Wel, "deur weerlig, gedesentraliseerde identifiseerders (DID's), 'n DIDComm-stelsel, WebRTC, IPFS en meer in 'n bekende toepassing te vervleg, is die Impervious Browser in staat om 'n hele reeks maklik om te gebruik P2P-vermoëns te verskaf."

Wat bied die produk?

When Impervious says “WhatsApp, without WhatsApp,” they mean secure P2P messaging. The company promises “real-time P2P communication between browsers and DIDs” and “Secure P2P file transfer.” When the company says “Zoom, without Zoom,” they mean secure P2P audio and video calls. That is “audio, video, messaging, and real-time data transmission.” They also promise that the “conversation only lives until the end of the call” and “available usage of data channels (ex. file transfers and games)” Impervious also promises “an anonymous, publicly accessible, decentralized data store” using the InterPlanetary File System or IPFS.  When the company says “Google Docs, without Google,” they mean real-time P2P collaborative workspaces. Users will be able to “share the document privately amongst authorized peers, without unauthorized users or third parties being aware of the files existence.” What does “Medium, without Medium” mean? Newsletters, subscriptions, and direct content monetization. The Impervious browser lives over the Lightning Network, so, payments are already part of the system. Users will be able to “create pay-to-play links, prompting peers to fulfill a key exchange or Lightning Invoice to view premium content.” The most exciting feature might be “Identity, without the State.” Using decentralized user identity (DID), users will be able to “generate decentralized identities via ION (a globally accessible, public, Decentralized Identifier network that runs on top of the Bitcoin blockchain) – directly from the Impervious Browser.”

There are few projects that sound as exciting as this one. However, the question remains: can Impervious deliver? We’ll have to wait for Bitcoin 2022 to find out.
