Decentralized storage protocol for hosting dApp frontends and assets in a censorship-resistant manner
Overview
IPFS is the foundational protocol for decentralized, content-addressed file storage, widely used for NFT metadata, dapp frontends, and censorship-resistant content distribution. Its cryptographic hashing model ensures data integrity and enables trustless retrieval from any node. Retrieval performance depends on network participation, so production deployments typically pair IPFS with dedicated pinning providers.

- +Censorship resistant
- +Decentralized
- +Free protocol
