It is based on Filecoin and IPFS technologies.<\/p>\n<p>NFT.Storage provides the ability to secure tokens and their associated metadata. The platform guarantees long-term storage of data.<\/p>\n<p>When a user uploads data to the service, the IPFS protocol forms an address linked to a unique cryptographic hash identifier (CID). This approach helps prevent issues such as broken links.<\/p>\n<p>For decentralized storage of metadata, the service uses the Filecoin protocol. Access to the data can be obtained through any public IPFS gateway.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in April, the OKEx cryptocurrency exchange said it would <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/okex-to-invest-10-million-in-the-filecoin-ecosystem\">invest in the development of the Filecoin ecosystem<\/a> $10 million. Through the Block Dream Fund it will provide financing to the Slingshot, Launchpad Accelerator and Frontier Accelerator projects.<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe to the ForkLog channel on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCC9FnXTC8_ENzaNSO5cHQ6g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> YouTube<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Protocol Labs, the developer behind the decentralized Filecoin platform, has unveiled a free NFT.Storage service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":41879,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"select":"1","news_style_id":"1","cryptorium_level":"","_short_excerpt_text":"","creation_source":"","_metatest_mainpost_news_update":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[1488,1213,1889],"class_list":["post-41878","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-and-analysis","tag-filecoin-fil","tag-nft","tag-protocol-labs"],"aioseo_notices":[],"amp_enabled":true,"views":"19","promo_type":"1","layout_type":"1","short_excerpt":"","is_update":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41878","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41878"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41878\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":41880,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41878\/revisions\/41880"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/41879"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41878"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=41878"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41878"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
