@xiahui135: IPFS is a decentralized data storage system .. the data is stored somewhere and distributed accross computers in the internet .. I supposed the decentral.exchange has it's wallet somwhere in travis or github.

The IPFS stuff looks pretty cool!

.. needs a decentral point of entry.

As it is now possible to trade counterparty-risk free, in a peer-2-peer manner using a decentralized exchange (dex).
The only thing we now need is a decentral network that allows to access it.

Therefore I have built a free and open platform that everyone can use to access the BitShares 2.0 DEX using the so called Inter-Planetary File-System (IPFS).
It essentially delivers the webpage and uses the currently known websocket servers a sentry points.

The page itself is bundled using travis-CI so that everyone can see that the sources have not been modified.
Now, with IPFS, we have a platform for content delivery (e.g. web wallet derliver) that stored its files permanently. If the web wallet has
been uploaded, no one can modify it again.

Nuf said. Here is the URL:

http://decentral.exchange/

Roadmap:
+ Customized designs
+ Additional fail back API servers (as many as possible)
+ setting up a DNS server for fall back notes (similar to the ntp pool)

Since the web wallet can make a profit on it's own (with the referal program), I do not intent to put advertisements there.

Have fun.
