Explain what Multi-addresses are, and how they relate to IPFS.
At the Berlin developer summit, we decided multiaddresses or peer addresses were important to write a concept doc about.
We did not have time to write a rough draft, so we need to create a concept doc from scratch. Concept docs are concise, high-level descriptions of various core concepts in IPFS. They should strive to answer:
- What is this?
- How does it relate to the rest of IPFS?
- How can (or should?) you use it? (Note: sometimes the answer is that you should understand it, but not use it. Bitswap is probably a good example.)
- Where do you go to learn more?
- What is the current state of affairs?
