The decentralised web needed a new database.
IPDB offers a solution.
The IPDB foundation fosters research into transparent governance and blockchain technology using the IPDB network.
IPDB is a ready-to-use public network, powered by BigchainDB, with a focus on transparent and robust governance.

Transparent governance
The IPDB foundation is governed by its general assembly and its elected board.
Members that run the nodes govern the IPDB network. The protocol’s consensus mechanisms provide on-chain governance, and the Foundation’s policies define off-chain governance.
