I believe this is very important too. I'm about to start up my own API server for @podping because having used Hive for Podping over the last couple of months I've come to understand that the API servers are massively important and agree that significant Dapps should run their own API servers but the more decentralised options we have the better and API servers is the list on Hive that scares me the most from a centralisation and censorship point of view.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
If I understand correctly, the Hive Application Framework work of the @blocktrades team is aimed at creating modularity so that each dapp can run its own much smaller node with only the modules they need. This should massively reduce the cost of dapps running their API nodes, and should massively help with decentralization.
I'm still struggling to understand exactly what HAF will do for me and for a dapp like @podping.
If you can explain it point to an explanation I'd be all ears. I wonder if this is something a podcast with @blocktrades might be good to do at this point now that HF25 has gone through.
A podcast with him sounds like an excellent idea and an opportunity to see what the HAF can do for podping and similar dapps.
