Would someone be kind enough to detail the specifics of how the interplanetary file system works. We watched some videos but it is not being elucidated in the way we would like it to be. Any additional information would be helpful. Feel free to make it more technical as well. Google is our friend.
We are also curious as to when (and how) the coin will be integrated into the website. What will the fiat gateways look like? Will it be easy for non-crypto savvy individuals to acquire vidz?
Many thanks.
P.S. if these answers will come in over the next days or weeks we are more than willing to wait. However, the value of the coin rests, in our opinion, on the integration of the token into the website and it would be useful to know a bit more. Moreover, if we have missed some finer details in the white paper we apologize.

Hi, on the IPFS website https : / /ipfs dot io (please put the link together) it's explained in a quite simple manner, also you can access to more technical information if you browse there.
So, in essence IPFS is a way of distributing content across a number of nodes so that there is no centralization of data and thus is robust to censorship, server outages, etc.
So the vidz blockchain will hold the hashes of links to data stored in the IPFS nodes and as such there should be no issues ever when accessing content...?
Are there other sites that use IPFS for video streaming specifically?
Again, we thank you.
