The Authenticated Transfer Protocol (ATProto or AT), which sits under Bluesky and many other emerging projects, has tremendous potential. At the IPFS Foundation, we're big fans, and not just because AT builds on the IPFS stack through IPLD and DASL (though admittedly building on DASL is one of the
The AT Protocol | Bluesky
The AT Protocol (Authenticated Transfer Protocol, or atproto) is a standard for public conversation and an open-source framework for building social apps.

What I Wish Someone Had Told Me About AT Protocol and Bluesky - Stuff Rob Wrote
I've been interested in atproto (the protocol that Bluesky, Blacksky, and many other applications - including pckt, where this blog is hosted! - run on) for abo...

Decentralized Technology in Practice: An analysis of socio-technical resilience in IPFS
The “Interplanetary File System” (IPFS) refers to a peer-to-peer content addressing protocol that is designed to be “upgradeable, resilient, and more open”. [1]
Why a New Protocol? The History and Future of AT Protocol - AT Protocol
Bluesky CTO Paul Frazee and Head of Protocol Daniel Holmgren join for a wide-ranging conversation about what atproto is, why it exists, how it got built, and where it's going next. From a Twitter consultancy to an IETF working group, this is where to get started.
IPFS is moving beyond the sponsored gateways
How IPFS is shifting from centralized public gateways to distributed infrastructure and client-side retrieval.

I am very excited about AT Protocol
AT Protocol (atproto) is the right mix of useful, practical, personal, and fun. I think it could save the internet.
ATPROTO isn’t just for Bluesky weiners
the at protocol is amazing. i've read a lot about it and haven't made anything with it yet. macwright.com/2026/03/16/atproto
I haven't made anything with AT Proto yet
macwright.comI wrote up my talk at @localfirstconf.com as a blogpost The AT Protocol is a high-scale network by design. It works by codifying proven architectures into a protocol. If you've ever used kafka to connect some backend services, then you basically know how atproto works.
Starting from scale in the design of the AT Protocol
pfrazee.leaflet.pubPleased to announce that an Authenticated Transfer Protocol (ATP) working group has been created at the IETF! Grateful to everybody who participated in the BoF and chartering process. Details on next steps and how to get involved inside. atproto.com/blog/kicking-off-the-atp-work…
Kicking off the ATP Working Group at the IETF - AT Protocol
atproto.com@atproto.com I'm curating the architecture track at the Øredev developers conference in Malmö, Sweden. It'd be super interesting to feature a session about the AT Protocol. Do you know of someone who's done a conference session about Atproto or do you have any other recommendations?
