🌐Establishing an IPFS Network

Guide: Setting Up IPFS for NFTs with NFT.Storage

Navigate to NFT.Storage and complete the signup process by entering the required information and following the provided steps to finalize your account registration.

Step 2: Access File Upload

After setting up your account, proceed to the "Files" area on NFT.Storage by either selecting the "Files" tab from the upper menu or directly accessing https://nft.storage/files/

Step 3: Upload Your NFT/Photo

Select the "Upload File" button and choose the image for which you wish to generate an IPFS link. You have the option to either drag and drop the file into the designated area or click to navigate through your computer's files and pick the desired image.

Step 4: Copy URL generated for IPFS

Once your upload finishes, the file will undergo processing and then appear in the "Files" section. To access its details, click on the uploaded file. Within the details page, look for the "Actions" button and select "Copy IPFS URL" to obtain the IPFS link specific to your file.

Step 5: Use the IPFS URL

With the IPFS URL now copied, you're ready to utilize it as needed. For instance, if you're working with the 0x404 Telegram bot/dapp, just paste the IPFS URL into your chat with the bot/dapp.

The bot/dapp will identify the URL and take the necessary steps to generate your ERC-404 token, incorporating the NFT data you've linked.

Well done! You've effectively generated an IPFS for your NFT using NFT.Storage, enabling you to associate your NFT data with ERC-404 tokens.

Additional Note:

You can change the tokenURI in the contract after the ERC404 is deployed.
