Overview of event

IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) is a network transfer protocol designed to create persistent and distributed storage and sharing files. This technology is a content addressable peer-to-peer hypermedia distribution protocol, the goal is to supplement, improve or even replace the current dominant Internet HTTP protocol, and can become the cornerstone of developers to build a meta-universe ecology.
