How to Use IPFS with Ethereum

IPFS (InterPlanetary File System)


IPFS, or the InterPlanetary File System, is a decentralized peer-to-peer protocol that creates a distributed file system to make the web more resilient and efficient. It enables users to save and retrieve files in a content-addressed fashion, with cryptographic hashes used to uniquely identify content. Data can be dispersed across several nodes using IPFS, increasing data availability and decreasing reliance on centralized servers. Versioning, deduplication, and tamper resistance are also included.

The powerful decentralized technology, when combined with a blockchain platform like Ethereum, offers an enhanced storage solution for blockchain applications.


You can use IPFS with Ethereum by storing a file's IPFS hash on the Ethereum blockchain. This enables decentralized file storage by connecting Ethereum smart contracts to IPFS files, allowing for secure and efficient data storage, retrieval, and verification on a decentralized network.


Find out the steps to store/retrieve data from IPFS and add the IPFS key to Ethereum smart contract in this blog.
