Cherry Node IPFS Features

Ownerships

Share your files with other accounts through OwnershipLayers (Owner, Editor, Reader). You can give and/or revoke the OwnershipLayer of any account as long as your are the Owner of the IPFS asset.

• Owners can read, edit, pin, unpin and delete an IPFS asset.

• Editors can read and edit an IPFS asset.

• Readers can only read an IPFS asset.

Files you upload are automatically pinned. Pinning an IPFS asset allows you to tell the IPFS to always keep the pinned asset in your local node. Also, by pinning an IPFS asset, you are able to share it with other peers.

Unpin any IPFS asset that you do not want to share anymore.
