RE: IPFS interface that authenticates with HIVE - OPENSOURCE

in #hivedevs3 years ago

Are the files stored in IPFS for ever, or we will have to pay something to retain it ? Could it lead to creating an app, which would allow me to create a personalized photo app, where I could store all my family photos and share to my family / friends ? We had a function last year from which I have around 25 GB files ( photos / videos), which I want to share.

It is stored for a period of time for free but if you want it to be permanent you have to pin it, using either a free service like pinata (up to 1GB storage) or you can pay. Pinata has a paid option or you can buy filecoin and store with the miners.
