Good points 👍
- Blockchain Art Institute chose to put the artwork's name and the other data on a distributed & decentralized protocol: IPFS. Even if this is not the best practice to guarantee data availability, this is better than choosing private storage.
- If Blockchain Art Institute dies & IPFS survives, you will be able to retrieve this data.
Bad points 👎
- The data hosted on IPFS needs to be "pinned" to be available. If not, it can disappear at any time. We recommend using a more robust solution like Blockweave.
- The artwork's visual and the artwork's creator are hosted on a server owned by Blockchain Art Institute.
- This data can be altered or deleted by Blockchain Art Institute at any time.
- It would be highly appreciated if Blockchain Art Institute hosted this data on Blockweave or IPFS.
- It would be appreciated if Blockchain Art Institute would create documentation (article or video) that explains how users can retrieve the artwork outside the platform.
