IPFS

IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) is a decentralized protocol for storing and transferring data that replaces traditional URLs with content-based hashes. Instead of relying on centralized servers, IPFS uses a peer-to-peer network where files are stored and identified by their cryptographic hash. This approach enhances censorship resistance, improves data reliability, and reduces dependence on centralized providers. IPFS is widely used for decentralized web hosting, NFT storage, blockchain applications, and resilient digital archives.
