Cardano

Blockfrost IPFS API

Blockfrost also operates as an IPFS provider, enabling developers building on Cardano to pin and retrieve content-addressed files via the InterPlanetary File System. The IPFS API base URL is https://ipfs.blockfrost.io/api/v0 and uses the same project_id authentication as the Cardano mainnet API. Storage quota varies by subscription plan, ranging from 100 MB on the free Starter tier to 50,000 MB on the Developer tier.
