Estado de Desarrollo ⚠️ Sin mantenimiento
Detalle del Estado de Desarrollo Unmaintained. Kubo, Helia, Boxo and other implementations and tools, and the public infrastructure Shipyard ran, lost their dedicated maintainers when Shipyard, which maintained them, ended its IPFS work on 30 September 2026 (Protocol Labs did not renew its funding, per Shipyard; Protocol Labs says core maintainership is being reorganized). Kubo's README states there is no dedicated maintainer at the moment, and no successor or steward is named in either source. The protocol, the specifications and other implementations continue to exist, and IPFS remains in widespread production use . Previously: Released / Mature, widely deployed content-addressed networking stack; Desktop app, browser extensions and cloud pinning services broadly available

Arquitectura P2P Kademlia DHT (for peer discovery)
Red de Superposición Global DHT
Direccionamiento por Contenido Content addressing (CIDs via cryptographic hashing)
Local-First N/A (nodes store cached content)
Cifrado de Extremo a Extremo (E2EE) N/A (content is public by default, E2EE at application layer)
Biblioteca de CRDTs N/A (IPFS itself doesn't use CRDTs, but can store CRDT data)
Tolerancia a Fallos Bizantinos N/A (no consensus mechanism, content integrity via hashing)
Firma Cryptographic hashing (content verification, not signing)
Permisos N/A (public by default, no built-in access control)
Compatibilidad con la Web Semántica IPLD (InterPlanetary Linked Data)
Contrato Inteligente N/A (Filecoin has smart contracts, not IPFS)
Posición en la Pila del Protocolo Application-layer (built on TCP/IP)
Incorporación de Activos/Valor None — IPFS is a content-addressed storage and retrieval protocol with no native token or economic incentive layer at the protocol level. Pinning services and storage nodes operate independently without protocol-mandated payment.
Madurez del Protocolo / Estandarización IETF Draft (CIDs specified in draft-multiformats-cid; content routing via HTTP delegated routing specs; libp2p components under active IETF submission)
