LF is also co-ordinating a significant investment into blockchain technology.

But I don't think the blockchain is core to distributing the web.

Brewster has a vision that he articulated here:

http://brewster.kahle.org/2015/08/11/locking-the-web-open-a-call-for-a-distributed-web-2/

and things like ipfs are running code today, and things like ccn
continue to evolve. People are using bittorrent to distribute all the
science articles in the world, also, (from scihub, which is fighting
takedown issues left and right) - I was surprised to see so many
seeders of 36TB of data - but I suppose some really, really do want to
have their own copy of all the published knowledge of the world.

Should be a fun conference!
