Forget HTTP: Ethereum has a new URL standard that can’t be blocked

In the Ethereum world, there is a way to add a new standard of URLs that can overcome centralized censorship. Under the new standard, named ERC-4804, DApps and NFTs may be accessed by all internet users without risks of censorship for certain countries or users.

ERC-4804 offers the ability to update on-chain data with each URL. This allows for autonomous, on-chain-sourced content to be served up and linked from anywhere. This way, the content is more secure and decentralized, instead of relying on traditional centralized web-hosting and content delivery services that can be easily blocked.

Accessibility of Ethereum Data

The ERC-4804 is also optimized for smart contract functionality, as it allows for on-chain metadata to be retrieved as part of a transaction. This removes the need for traditional centralized third-party servers when linking to Ethereum content, making it more accessible, cheaper, and faster.

The use of ERC-4804 and the ability to access Ethereum content directly on-chain, not only allows people to view or access content but to also increase user confidence in the content, as it can be tracked and verified on-chain.

Overall, using ERC-4804 and on-chain data linking, allows for Ethereum data and content to be more easily shared and accessed across different networks and platforms. This new way of data sharing allows for maximum accessibility and reliability, without the worry of centralized censorship.

Conclusion

Ethereum has gone beyond creating a platform for decentralized transactions and smart contracts. Through their new ERC-4804 standard, Ethereum users are now able to share and access their data securely and reliably across different networks, with no worry of censorship.
