INTERPLANETARY CONSENSUS

InterPlanetary Consensus (IPC) is a revolutionary blockchain technology that
powers planetary-scale web3 apps.


From the builders behind:

Get Started




WEB3 AT PLANETARY SCALE

With IPC, decentralized apps can reach planetary-scale through recursively
scalable subnets, sub-second transactions, robust compute workloads, and highly
adaptable WebAssembly runtimes tailored to dev requirements. It enables the
creation of flexible, living networks of customizable sidechains or "subnets",
which can achieve massive scaling by running parallel chains that interoperate
with one another.

The journey begins with supercharging devs’ capabilities on the Filecoin
network.

TRANSFORMATIVE BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY

Infinitely Scalable

Deeply Customizable
Profoundly Dynamic


INFINITELY SCALABLE BLOCKCHAIN NETWORKS

IPC's breakthrough approach aims to bring web2-level speed and scale to the
decentralized world by harnessing flexible networks of recursive blockchains or
“subnets”. This design not only promotes massive scaling through parallel
blockchains but also ensures they can communicate seamlessly with one another.



DEEPLY CUSTOMIZABLE

With IPC’s modular runtime, developers can run programs written in any language
compilable to WebAssembly. Soon, IPC-powered networks will also be able to
dynamically adjust their throughput by spawning and closing temporary subnets as
needed. Developers will be able to hyper tune their networks to their needs,
including custom gas schedules, their own native tokens, membership rules, <1s
blocktimes, & more.



PROFOUNDLY DYNAMIC

IPC’s modular runtime enables the creation of lightweight and flexible
blockchains, adaptable to various platforms such as web browsers or mobile
devices. Moreover, IPC-powered networks can dynamically adjust their throughput
by spawning and closing temporary subnets as needed.

FEATURED APPLICATIONS & BUILDERS

Lilypad enables users to run AI workloads in a decentralized GPU network where
anyone can get paid to connect their compute nodes to the network and run jobs.

Lilypad uses IPC to build a dedicated subchain that underpins Lilypad's
computational network and enables Lilypad's own token  (LP) for service and gas
payments.

Fluence is a decentralized serverless platform & computing marketplace powered
by blockchain economics. Fluence is a global, permissionless, scalable, and
secure alternative to centralized cloud computing platforms.

Fluence will use IPC to build a dedicated Fluence subchain with custom
computational primitives and enable Fluence's own token for service and gas
payments

Spark is a trustless retrieval sampling protocol for Filecoin that allows users
to contribute resources to improving the Filecoin Network and earn rewards.
‍
Spark plans to use Mycelium, a public general-purpose L2 built on the IPC
technology stack to run retrieval jobs and distribute rewards at scale.

Lighthouse is a perpetual file storage protocol that allows the ability to pay
once and store forever.
‍
Lighthouse will contribute to Mycelium, a public general-purpose L2 built on the
IPC technology stack.


ECOSYSTEM INTEROPERABILITY

IPC comes from the builders at Protocol Labs, including the founding members of
key projects like Filecoin and IPFS, which power much of the global web3
ecosystem. IPC is compatible with Filecoin and EVM-compatible chains (with more
to come).

IPC LAUNCH SEQUENCE


April 2023
M1: IPC deployed onto Spacenet


SUBNETS SUPPORT IS ADDED TO SPACENET. DEVELOPERS CAN NOW USE SPACENET TO TEST
APPLICATIONS WITH CUSTOM REQUIREMENTS OR WITH HIGH TRANSACTION VOLUME.

July 2023
M2: Functional demonstrator on Filecoin mainnet


SOLIDITY ACTORS ENABLE ALPHA SUBNET SUPPORT ON MAINNET, WITH BASIC WALLET
SUPPORT, SMART CONTRACT DEPLOYMENT, AND TOOLING FOR SUBNET OPERATIONS. MIND THE
DRAGONS, THOUGH: THE PROTOCOL AND CODE HAVEN'T BEEN AUDITED AND SHOULDN'T BE
USED WITH ANY SIGNIFICANT VALUE.





Q1 2024
M3: General availability on Filecoin mainnet


THE ALGORITHMS AND IMPLEMENTATION ARE AUDITED AND VERIFIED. THE BASE
CRYPTOECONOMIC MODEL IS DESIGNED AND IMPLEMENTED, ALONGSIDE SLASHING AND FRAUD
PROOFS. EXPERIENCED USERS CAN CONFIDENTLY DEPLOY AND USE IPC SUBNETS BUT THE UX
WILL NOT SUPPORT MASS ADOPTION.

TBD
M4: Content-addressed data access and interpreted Wasm programs


BLOCKCHAINS AND STORAGE FUSED! PROGRAMS RUNNING ON IPC SUBNETS CAN NOW LOAD AND
OPERATE ON CONTENT-ADDRESSED DATA STORED IN NETWORKS LIKE IPFS AND FILECOIN.
DEVELOPERS CAN USE A VARIETY OF PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES THAT COMPILE TO WASM.





TBD
M5: Subnet mechanics, streamlined


DIRECT CROSS-NET INTERACTIONS ENABLE SUBNETS TO COMMUNICATE WITH ONE ANOTHER
FASTER. DEPLOYING MULTI-SUBNET TOPOLOGIES THAT DISTRIBUTE VALIDATORS BY
GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION, DATACENTER, OR SOME ARBITRARY PROOF, BECOMES EASIER.
