About Internet of People
Decentralized Internet Vision
Internet of People is creating the new, decentralized internet – the Web 3.0 – based on the Mercury protocol, a node-based environment for building truly decentralized apps.IoP is a decentralized network of nodes. Almost anyone can set up and run a node. Right now, the easiest way is via a pre-configured Titania box from our partner Libertaria.
Mercury Protocol Features
The Mercury protocol, running on those nodes, enables all participating nodes to communicate peer-to-peer with other nodes in the network and directly exchange any and all data supported by the Mercury protocol, including user profiles, messages, pictures and much more.
Open Social Graph
Part of what we’re building is called the open social graph. The open social graph will allow users of the IoP node network to share whatever profile and data they like with other users. The open social graph is completely censorship resistant due to the direct peer-to-peer connections between users.
