How to Upload NFTs to IPFS (FAST & FREE)

How to Upload NFTs to IPFS (FAST & FREE)

Today I’m going to teach you how to upload your NFTs to IPFS absolutely free.

The reason you need to upload your images and metadata to IPFS is because IPFS will store them permanently. So every time someone wants to view your NFT, the image will be pulled from IPFS and shown to the user.

You may have heard of a base URI, or a CID, especially if you’ve watched my other videos, and finding that has been a difficult part of the NFT creation process for a lot of people.

This video is for people who have already generated their artwork, so if you haven’t done that yet, I’ll leave a link in the description and a card in the top right corner of the screen which will teach you how to do that. I still recommend watching this video all the way through first so you’ll get an understanding of how it’s all done.

In this video I’ll teach you how to upload your NFTs to IPFS and obtain the CID which will be used for the base URI in your smart contract. #nft #ipfs #nftart
