[Steemit] More faster and safer (IPFS Protocol) Messaging peer-to-peer in Steemit?
http://i.imgsafe.org/afa02c2cf6.jpg

#### On July 4, Steem introduced the final version of its network and launched cryptomonedas 5 million to the community, since then begins its ascent. Promises on its website other news. For example, they are hoping to add the Interplanetary File System (new Internet protocol among peers) to give even more security to the network. This means they want to _**Include private peer to peer messaging, transaction privacy and ensure anonymity of users.**_

## What is Interplanetary File System - IPFS?

#### IPFS file is a distributed peer-to-peer that seeks to connect all devices with the same computer file system and ensuring the continued availability of files by allowing multiple copies exist on different nodes of the network system. To do this, it redirects communications based on contentinstead of in the name as is currently the case, providing a model block storage for high-performance content with hyperlinks addressable by its contents. Specifically a IPFS identifier uses a cryptographic hash of the content. And that hash guarantees, therefore cryptography that always represents the contents of that file, so if I change something, however small, that content, the hash will totally change. This makes simultaneously protects file manipulation and degradation, while making these objects are immutable.

#### The fact that it is based on a network of nodes, consequently does not exist in such communications a single point of failure, as if communication with a node fails, another can access. And it makes the most efficient communications, allowing transmission through multiple nodes simultaneously. And it is important to note that these nodes need not rely on other network nodes.

### In addition to the benefits already mentioned IPFS, to also provide a distribution of decentralized data, allows access to Internet content even when offline, something that HTTP can not do, and that would be of inestimable importance especially in countries where the Internet connection is poor or unstable or areas or remote regions of metropolitan areas with good internet connection.

## _**Steem Integration**_

_**Steemit.com which will allow users upload and store content on IPFS. When a user wishes to embed an image, video, or large text document in a post, steemit.com will transparently construct Steem posts that link to IPFS content. Steemit.com will then render Steem posts as-if the content was actually stored on the blockchain.**_
_**The benefit of this approach is that the data stored and maintained on the blockchain is kept to a minimum.**_
_**IPFS ensures that content referenced from URLs embedded in the blockchain cannot be changed.**_

### I feel great that we have a messaging system in the social network, we can communicate with users directly!

this is very promising and interesting news. 
to make the steemit more valuable, it makes total sense to let users upload pictures etc. directly to steemit, and not let them use external services. this way the platform will gain more value, if everything is in one place and vertically integrated. 
if the platform gains more value, in the longterm, the steem will gain stability, which is one of the key things the steemit team has to ensure
