...What if anyone in the world could publish digital content, anyone else in the world could access it (for free or for payment), and that entire system worked without any centralized authority or point of control? While the blockchain is the innovation that makes LBRY possible, the Data Network is the layer that actually makes the blockchain useful. The job scheduler schedules different types of jobs to update the Chainquery database example. These jobs synchronize different areas of the data either to make queries faster or ascertain information that is not directly part of the raw blockchain. ...

LBRY SDK for Python is currently the most fully featured implementation of the LBRY Network protocols and includes many useful components and tools for building decentralized applications.

The most salient feature of the LBRY blockchain is the association of a normalized string of characters (a “name”) with a structured set of metadata. This coupling is called a claim. The LBRY blockchain stores names and metadata in a parallel Merkle tree, separate from the tree used to store transaction data. This allows LBRY URLs to be trustfully resolved even without a full copy of the blockchain.
