Deep dives
Overview of IPFS
IPFS is a peer-to-peer network known for its decentralized model. Users can store and share files without relying on a single source of truth. Content verification is a key feature of IPFS achieved through content identifiers (CIDs). By using CIDs, files are deterministically identified and retrieved using hashing algorithms. The network utilizes decentralized hash tables (DHT) to distribute content, allowing users to access files reliably and securely.
