On-chain news broke on August 25 when the IPFS development team Shipyard confirmed it will cease all IPFS-related engineering, maintenance, and infrastructure work by September 30. The decision follows Protocol Labs’ choice not to renew funding. Projects such as Kubo, Helia, and IPFS Desktop will lose dedicated maintainers, while public infrastructure including ipfs.io and dweb.link will be managed by Protocol Labs. Shipyard will assist with the transition before the deadline. This update impacts the long-term support of key IPFS tools and services.

According to ME News, on August 25 (UTC+8), Shipyard, the IPFS ecosystem development team, announced that due to Protocol Labs’ decision not to renew its funding, Shipyard will cease all IPFS-related engineering, maintenance, and infrastructure operations by September 30.
