Practically, levers within your control determine where your IPNS name is on the spectrum between consistency and availability:

- **IPNS record validity:** longer validity will veer towards availability. Moreover, longer validity will reduce the dependence on the key holder (which for most purposes is stored on a single machine and rare shared) since the record can continue to persist without requiring the private key holder to sign a new record. Another benefit of a longer validity is that the transport can be delegated to other nodes or services (such as [w3name](https://staging.web3.storage/docs/how-tos/w3name/)), without compromising the private key.
