Faster Gateway for IPNS

In previous versions, we used ipfs.io or cf-ipfs.com to access IPNS. Now, we have a new, faster option powered by the excellent eth.limo and NameSys. Both are community projects.

For example, IPNS for this site is k51qzi5uqu5dgv8kzl1anc0m74n6t9ffdjnypdh846ct5wgpljc7rulynxa74a and you can open it with the following address:


IPNS + ipfs2.eth.limo

https://k51qzi5uqu5dgv8kzl1anc0m74n6t9ffdjnypdh846ct5wgpljc7rulynxa74a.ipfs2.eth.limo

The new gateway can also be used with CIDv1 like this:


CIDv1 + ipfs2.eth.limo
