   ipfs suddenly seems less innovative. mainline dht already has more features, more users, and more content:
   
   - content addressing: infohash
   - mutable addresses: DHT feeds
   - p2p messaging: KRPC
   - users: 10-25M
   - content: almost anything you can imagine

     @xj9 Content hash is terribly coarse content addressing. You're never going to accidentally have two content hashes the same for the same data. Per-file hashing and the resulting dedup is an important feature.
