Enter IPFS
The most promising solution that’s available to-
day is IPFS, or Interplanetary File System, cre-
ated by the folks at Protocol Labs. It’s a peer-to-
peer protocol where each node stores a collec-
tion of hashed Bles. A client who wants to re-
trieve any of those Bles enjoys access to a nice
abstraction layer where it simply needs to call
the hash of the Ble it wants. IPFS then combs
through the nodes and supplies the client with
the Ble.

Decryption
Since we’re on our second computer, and this
encrypted Ble was encrypted with the second
computer’s public key, in theory we should be
able to decrypt and view this Ble without any is-
sues.
