Yes, IPFS IPNS is a public key /ipns/iamakey that points to a hash /ipfs/iamahash.
If you add a hashchain activity feed to that, you get (secure-)scuttlebutt (except I think it doesn't do file trees, only blobs), and if you add a p2p network to keep those feeds updated, you get scuttlebot.
Also, I think Zot monadic identities uses a public key as user identifier.
