Description: Single points of authority and failure are one of the key problems that distributed systems attempt to solve. IPFS (Inter Planetary File System) is a distributed file system that has become a popular way to store and persist data across multiple nodes. Images, videos, and metadata are popular candidates for IPFS because NFTs rely on the idea that their associated artwork will always be available. The more nodes in a distributed system that store a file, the more assured we can be that the file will persist even if some of the nodes go offline. Each NFT comes with a physical print*.

*Must be holding the NFT on Nifty Gateway on November 19th, 2021 to receive the physical print. Artist will contact holders via e-mail (the e-mail associated with their Nifty Gateway account) to arrange for shipping.
