Key Points:

  • On October 13th Filecoin announced that they have partnered with Dapper labs to “securely available everywhere”. This will allow Flow users to mint NFTs and leverage IPFS as well.

  • “In content-based addressing, content is no longer retrieved from single locations on the web. Rather, content is retrieved from any participating nodes on the IPFS network that have the content you’re requesting,” Filecoin outlined.

  • Dapper labs is one of the leading innovators in the NFT space as they are the creators of CryptoKitties, NBA top shots, and are also now working with the NFL.

  • This partnership will make NFTs on the Flow blockchain “more decentralized” since the files, or NFTs in this case, will be hosted and accessible on different Filecoin servers.
