Para lograr esto, necesitábamos asociarnos con aquellos que comparten nuestra visión del futuro y sean capaces de ayudarnos a construir una plataforma resistente, upgradeable y cada vez más <strong>descentralizada.</strong></p><p>Es por eso que elegimos unir caminos con <a href="https://protocol.ai"><strong>Protocol Labs</strong></a> y hacer uso de tecnologías increíbles como su producto <strong>IPFS</strong>, un protocolo de hipermedia peer-to-peer especialmente diseñado para mejorar la velocidad y la seguridad web, a la vez que favorece su apertura. ¿Qué nos encantó sobre ellos? El propósito de <a href="https://ipfs.io">IPFS</a><a href="https://ipfs.io):">:</a> superar HTTP y construir una mejor web para todos nosotros.</p><p>La web actual no solo es ineficiente sino también costosa, algo que<strong> IPFS</strong> resuelve rápidamente con un ahorro sustancial de ancho de banda, mejorando la eficiencia con la que somos capaces de distribuir grandes volúmenes de datos.</p><p><strong>IPFS nos ayudó a garantizar una experiencia descentralizada</strong></p><p>Utilizando IPFS, alojamos la web app de Blast utilizando el servicio de <a href="https://fleek.co/"><strong>Fleek</strong></a>, que nos proporciona una manera fácil y confiable de construir nuestra <strong>web app</strong> bajo los protocolos subyacentes que impulsan la nueva <strong>open web</strong> (Internet Computer, IPFS, Filecoin, Ethereum), garantizando una <strong>experiencia descentralizada</strong> con los mismos beneficios de rendimiento, resiliencia, confianza y resistencia a la censura.</p><p><em>En dos años de trabajo, </em><a href="https://blog.ipfs.io/2022-04-24-fleek/"><em>Fleek</em></a><em> ha logrado acumular más de 30 000 sitios, 1 millón de subidas de archivos mensuales, llegando a más de 40 000 usuarios .</em> (formato de cita o datos)</p><p><strong>Así es cómo Fleek impulsó la plataforma Blast</strong></p><p>Lo primero a destacar sobre <strong>Fleek</strong> es que es fácil de usar y <strong>low code</strong>, lo que la convierte en una <strong>alternativa descentralizada</strong> perfecta a los servicios de infraestructura centralizados de la web actual. En este sentido, encontramos un aliado confiable para las necesidades de energía y almacenamiento de datos utilizando los <strong>protocolos Web3.</strong></p><p>Además, necesitábamos un sistema que nos ayudara a optimizar los procesos y actualizar automáticamente los hashes de contenido, lo que Fleek nos permitió hacer en cada implementación (deployment). Buenos procesos de CI/CD son claves para lograr buenas apps!</p><p>Un factor extremadamente importante para nosotros es el soporte. Con <strong>Fleek</strong> tenemos la garantía de que la <strong>web app de Blast</strong> está respaldada en sus propios servidores y se archiva automáticamente en<strong> Filecoin</strong>, que es la red de almacenamiento descentralizada de Protocol Labs. Este es un sistema de respaldo adicional dentro de la open web, que nos brinda la tranquilidad y seguridad que necesitamos y queremos brindar a nuestros usuarios.</p><p><strong>Qué problemas resolvimos con Fleek</strong></p><p>Fleek nos permitió exprimir todo el potencial que ofrece <strong>Web3</strong>, convirtiéndolo en la forma más fácil para nosotros de desarrollar, alojar, almacenar y potenciar nuestra <strong>webapp</strong> en la open web.</p><p>Creemos que es la tecnología perfecta para adoptar la transición a la<strong> open web</strong> sin experimentar los posibles dolores de cabeza que esto puede traer, sobre todo a nivel de desarrollo debido a ciertas complejidades técnicas inherentes al proceso.</p><p><strong>Los próximos pasos de Blast con IPFS y Fleek</strong></p><p>Nuestra brújula sigue siendo crear la mejor experiencia <strong>play &amp; earn</strong> posible para nuestros valiosos usuarios. Es en este sentido que planeamos alojar todos los datos de nuestra web app en IPFS con el objetivo de continuar <strong>descentralizando la plataforma</strong> y profundizando su transparencia.</p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=f1c13450cf6" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*s6-eKQAOsDDQDwqqVqcJXQ.jpeg" /></figure><blockquote><a href="https://medium.com/@blast.gg/blast-busca-seguir-descentralizando-su-web-app-con-ipfs-f1c13450cf6">- Spanish Version</a><a href="https://medium.com/@blast.gg/blast-aims-to-further-decentralize-its-web-app-using-ipfs-43d30e4c9165"> Here</a></blockquote><p>At Blast our goal is clear: to provide users with the best<strong> play &amp; earn gaming </strong>experience with the power of blockchain. To achieve this, we needed to partner with those who share our vision for the future and help us build a resilient, upgradeable and increasingly <strong>decentralized platform</strong>.</p><p>That’s why we chose to join paths with <a href="https://protocol.ai"><strong>Protocol Labs</strong></a><strong> </strong>and make use of amazing tools like <a href="https://ipfs.io"><strong>IPFS</strong></a>, a peer-to-peer hypermedia <strong>protocol </strong>specially designed to improve web speed and security while making it more open. What we loved about it? <a href="https://ipfs.io"><strong>IPFS</strong></a><strong> </strong>purpose: to surpass HTTP and build a better web for all of us to use.</p><p>Today´s web is not only inefficient but is also expensive, something that <strong>IPFS</strong> quickly resolves with substantial bandwidth savings, enhancing the efficiency with which we are capable of distributing large volumes of data.</p><h4><strong>IPFS help us guarantee a decentralize experience</strong></h4><p>Using IPFS, <strong>Blast</strong> hosts its web app on <strong>a decentralized network of storage providers,</strong> which provides us with an easy and reliable way to build our <strong>web app</strong> on the underlying protocols that power the new <strong>Open Web</strong> (Internet Computer, IPFS, Filecoin, Fleek, Ethereum), guaranteeing a <strong>decentralized experience</strong> with the same performance, resilience, trustlessness, and censorship-resistance benefits.</p><p><em>In two years of work, </em><a href="https://blog.ipfs.io/2022-04-24-fleek/"><strong><em>Fleek</em></strong></a><strong><em> </em></strong><em>has managed to accumulate more than 30,000 sites, 1 million monthly file uploads, reaching more than 40,000 users. </em>(quote or data format)</p><p><strong>This is how Fleek boosted Blast</strong></p><p>The first thing to note about <strong>Fleek</strong> is that it is easy to use and<strong> low code</strong>, which makes it a perfect <strong>decentralized alternative</strong> to the centralized infrastructure services of the current web. In this sense, we found a reliable ally for energy and data storage needs using <strong>Web3 protocols.</strong></p><p>In addition, we needed a system that would help us streamline processes and update content hashes automatically, which Fleek enabled us with every implementation (deployments). Great CI/CD processes make for great apps!</p><p>An extremely important factor for us is support. With <strong>Fleek </strong>we have the guarantee that the <strong>Blast web-app</strong> is backed up on its own servers and automatically archived in <strong>Filecoin</strong>, which is the decentralized storage network of Protocol Labs. This is an additional backup system within the open web, which offers us the tranquility and security that we need and want to offer to our users.</p><p><strong>Some design aspects we solved with Fleek</strong></p><p>For <strong>Blast</strong>, Fleek allowed us to squeeze all the potential that <strong>Web3</strong> offers, making it the easiest way for us to develop, host, store and power our <strong>web app</strong> on the open web.</p><p>We believe that it is the perfect technology to adopt the transition to the <strong>open web</strong> without experiencing the possible headaches that this can bring, especially at the development level due to certain technical complexities inherent in the process.</p><p><strong>Blast next steps with IPFS and Fleek</strong></p><p>Our north star remains to create the best possible <strong>play &amp; earn experience</strong> for our valued users. It is in this sense that we plan to host all the data of our web app in IPFS with the aim of continuing to <strong>decentralize the platform</strong> and deepen its transparency.</p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=43d30e4c9165" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>
