IPNS is a system for creating and updating mutable links to IPFS content. Since objects in IPFS are content-addressed, their address changes every time their content does.
A "name" in IPNS (example: /ipns/website.ipfs.io
) points to the hash of a public key, which does not change itself, but can change what it references. Allowing for dynamic references (/ipns/website.ipfs.io
), to static content (=> /ipfs/QmPs9QHQvCPh758V3rFXGByJMS8Scu5YzBYTEkpnCKUxAL
).

- How does it interact with an IPFS node's keystore?
- How are references resolved?
- How does it compare with other dynamic data systems?
- What problem does IPNS solve?
