I’m looking to mint a video file that is 3.21 GB in size the main purpose of this is to get it on the blockchain and on decentralized storage, how can i do this in manifold?
gm! Is there a specific platform you’re looking to display this token on? Just a heads up - Most platforms will have a file size limit for display.
If you’re looking to upload a file that large, you’ll need to manually upload the video yourself to a decentralized storage and then attach it to Manifold token as we have a limit on file size.
I’m not looking to display on a platform per se, if i can have a thumbnail display on a platform that should be fine, the main goal is to mint the piece, have the provenance of the work secured, and the arweave/ipfs link in the description so that someone can click and view it.
do you have any suggestions as to what decentralized storage i can use and how to attach it to a manifold token?
Thank you for the response! this is super helpful
Got it - Once you’ve uploaded your file to ipfs/arweave, in order to attach it to your token, go into the token’s metadata.
- Create a new ‘Hidden Property’
- Under Name, write ‘animation_url’
- Under Value. Paste the link of your content
- Publish your changes!
