However, IPFS isn't the only thing that one should understand about this revolutionary system. Underneath IPFS is a system known as IPLD that deals with all the heavy lifting that IPFS does to store data on-chain and create hash-links which we see as content IDs (CIDs). But what is IPLD, and why is it important in the grander scheme of things? Learning about IPLD will allow a unique insight into how IPFS works and the methods necessary to extend the data structures currently available to users through IPFS. Read [this recent blog post](https://blog.ipfs.io/what-is-ipld/) to learn all there is to know about IPLD. + +## **Brand new on IPFS** + +* [Rust-libp2p v0.40.0](https://github.com/libp2p/rust-libp2p/releases/tag/v0.40.0) was released yesterday with rendezvous protocol implementation, improved state management, Open Metrics & Prometheus support, & more! +* Photoshop is launching a feature to ‘prepare NFTs’ that will all live on IPFS!
