The Internet

The Foundation

The Internet, the foundation. So many leading technologies rely on it, AI, fintech, blockchain to name a few. Developing rapidly, they need the Internet to keep pace with them. But the Internet is in trouble. It is torn apart by internal divisions, suffocating incompatibility, mindless duplication, and waste. Lacking focus, attempting to be everything to everyone, the Internet drifts aimlessly into obsolescence. In the current state it cannot withstand the increasing demands placed on it.

The Internet must evolve.

Ever expanding

Only new innovation can provide sufficient impetus for the Internet to change its course, to give it a chance to break out of its many ailments. IPREF is such a technology. It is designed to provide compatibility to normally incompatible protocols. It allows different protocols to coexist thus bridging an old divide, stopping decades of senseless infighting over which of the two pieces of the fractured Internet should prevail. None could ever win this battle as neither satisfied every need while each was desirable in different scenarios. IPREF brings peace, it brings ubiquitous compatibility throughout a unified Internet. The Internet may now continue advancing in support of many technologies that rely on it.

The Internet, the foundation,
may now enter its next evolutionary step.

The next evolutionary step for the Internet is a multiprotocol Internet with ubiquitous compatibility. It is an evolution. It is achieved through organic permeation. Nothing is replaced. The enterprises may keep their networks running any protocols they choose. The Internet may evolve freely into more focused protocols without affecting its customers, the enterprises, the users. IPREF makes it possible.

The Internet may be simplified into one, dual stacks eliminated, protocols cleaned out of distractions.

The venerable NAT may be retired, it has served the Internet well. New, user focused, protocols may be developed: for security, for finance, for blockchain, for IoT, for space, for vertical markets, for specialized applications.
