What Hacker News says?
IPFS might be in trouble. Haven't really followed the tech so I have no idea how much of an effect there will be with Shipyard dropping it, but from the number of things I see named in their exit post I'd guess the blast radius is sizable. - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49421489 - https://ipshipyard.com/blog/2026-the-end-of-ipfs-at-shipyard...
