This section assumes "blockchain" already means something to you. If you're totally new, the key problem solved by blockhain is the ability for distributed, disparate entities to all agree on a rivalrous state of affairs (such as account balances or metadata associated with a URL).

The LBRY blockchain is a public and uses proof-of-work consensus. It is the foundation of the protocol stack.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The most salient feature of the LBRY blockchain is the association of a normalized character string with up to 8KB of metadata.
|
||||
This string of characters forms a LBRY URL, e.g.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The LBRY blockchain contains two parallel [[Merkle Tree]]s, one for transactions (ala Bitcoin) and one for storing LBRY URLs and metadata.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Conventionally, this metadata contains information about the content, such as the title and creator, the price (if any), and a unique signature allowing the actual content to be fetched from the data network, the next level in the LBRY stack.

# Introduction to LBRY protocol
|

|
||||
## Mission
|
||||
|
||||
What if anyone in the world could publish a piece of digital content, anyone else in the world could access it, for free or for payment, and that entire system worked end-to-end without any centralized authority or point of control?

|
||||

That's the idea behind LBRY. To create a market for accessing and publishing information<sup>1</sup> that is global<sup>2</sup>, decentralized<sup>3</sup>, robust<sup>4</sup>, optimal<sup>5</sup> and complete<sup>6</sup>.

|

That's a fancy sentence, so here's a plainer one: we just thought it'd be really damn cool if there was a system that stored as much of the world's information as possible, but was owned and controlled by no one.
|
||||
|
||||
<sup>1</sup>In the information theoric sense, i.e. any data. LBRY facilitates distribution of all data, whether it be a video or a spreadsheet.

<sup>5</sup>In the Pareto sense, with regards to the production and distribution of information (i.e. digital information is both created and distributed in a way that could not be any more efficient from the perspectives of information producers and consumers).

<sup>6</sup>The most complete collection of world’s books, films, art, games, etc. should be available via LBRY.
