What Makes HAVEN Different
HAVEN is built on Distributed Press, a publishing system that:
- Can't Be Taken Down: Uses IPFS and Hypercore protocols to distribute content across peer-to-peer networks
- Trust-Based Access: Information flows through trusted community channels
- Resilient By Design: Content lives on multiple distributed networks simultaneously
- Community Driven: Resources are shared by people who understand our needs
- Built to Last: Even if this website goes down, the content remains accessible through P2P protocols
