HTTP3 is a decentralized web hosting platform that allows users to deploy static websites directly to the blockchain, eliminating traditional hosting costs while ensuring permanent availability and censorship resistance. It leverages IPFS for content storage and smart contracts for managing metadata, providing an efficient, decentralized way to host websites.
Compared to traditional protocols, HTTP3 enhances security by using end-to-end encryption, decentralized storage, and tamper-proof smart contracts. It also improves performance by utilizing a decentralized content delivery network (CDN) through IPFS, ensuring faster content delivery and better uptime without reliance on centralized servers.
