Add a new section "Integrating IPFS with Ethereum" to the README.md file. * **Installation and usage**: - Install IPFS: Follow the instructions on the IPFS installation page. - Initialize IPFS: Run `ipfs init` to initialize the IPFS repository. - Start the IPFS daemon: Run `ipfs daemon` to start the IPFS daemon. - Add files to IPFS: Use the command `ipfs add <file>` to add files to IPFS. This will return a CID (Content Identifier). - Store CID on Ethereum: Use a smart contract to store the CID on the Ethereum blockchain. You can use Solidity to create a contract that stores the CID as a string. - Retrieve files from IPFS: Use the command `ipfs cat <CID>` to retrieve files from IPFS using the CID. - Pinning files on IPFS: Use the command `ipfs pin add <CID>` to pin files on IPFS, ensuring they are not garbage collected. --- For more details, open the [Copilot Workspace session](https://copilot-workspace.githubnext.com/ethereum-lists/chains?shareId=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX).

You successfully submitted a PR! Due to the amount of PRs coming in: we will only look at PRs that the CI is happy with. We can also not hold your hand getting the CI green - just look how others that where merged did it and RTFM. So as long as there is any CI check that reports an error - no human will look at this. You might be able to ask for some support after supporting the project - e.g. by sending funds to lists.eth. When you fixed things after a requested change - then you also need to (re-)request a review. |
