Bitcoin Sloj 3: Što je Impervious Browser? Kada ga možemo očekivati?

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 paket API-ja” which created “a programmatic layer for Bitcoin.” On that third layer, the Impervious browser lives. In najnovije izdanje njihovog biltena, the company described what we can expect from it. And Bitcoinist is here to summarize it because we know how busy you are.

Zumiranje, bez zuma.
Google dokumenti, bez Googlea.
Srednje, bez Srednje.
WhatsApp, bez WhatsAppa.
Plaćanja, bez banaka.
Identitet, bez države.

Impervious je već puno obećao u prosinačkom tweetu, naime: 

Zumiranje, bez zuma.
Google dokumenti, bez Googlea.
Srednje, bez Srednje.
WhatsApp, bez WhatsAppa.
Plaćanja, bez banaka.
Identitet, bez države.

Ali mogu li isporučiti? Očigledno mogu. 

Is Bitcoin Layer 3 Even A Thing?

Drugi način gledanja na ono što tvrtka radi, prema Jimmyju Songu, oni će "u suštini svaki Lightning čvor učiniti poslužiteljem kao i klijentom." Zatim dodaje: "Čini se da se san o decentraliziranom internetu gradi pred našim očima!" Ipak, vratimo se korak unatrag. 

What’s this “bitcoin layer 3” all about? The Nepropusna dokumentacija jednostavno rečeno:

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

Na drugom sloju postoji Lightning Network – gotovina, tekućina plaćanja, ravnopravno povjerenje.

Na trećem sloju postoji Impervious Network – aplikacije, streaming mikro plaćanja i federacija čvorova.”

Ali što to može učiniti? Za to citiramo Coindesk:

„Mreža „sloja 3“ koja se može koristiti za postavljanje decentraliziranih virtualnih privatnih mreža (VPN-ova), platformi za razmjenu poruka ili čak streaming videa ili DJ-a ili podcasta. “Mogu biti u Kini, ili mogu biti u Iranu, a to nam omogućuje da govorimo slobodno bez cenzure”, objašnjava Chase Perkins, osnivač i izvršni direktor Imperviousa.” 

Drugim riječima, kako piše u biltenu, "Impervious API-ji omogućuju bilo kojoj aplikaciji ili usluzi strujanje kriptografski sigurnih kanala za prijenos podataka otpornih na cenzuru i nadzor."

Kako radi nepropusni preglednik?

Ideja je da je cijeli sustav šifriran i da se ne oslanja na treće strane ili središnja tijela. Super, ali kako to funkcionira? Pa, "preplitanjem Lightninga, decentraliziranih identifikatora (DID), DIDComm sustava, WebRTC-a, IPFS-a i još mnogo toga u poznatu aplikaciju, Impervious Browser može pružiti cijeli paket P2P mogućnosti lakih za korištenje."

Što proizvod nudi?

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.
