## Description

***Bizinikiwi Files*** is a decentralized storage module which allows bizinikiwi-based chains(including `Pezkuwi/Dicle/Crust/Acala/Clover/Moonbeam/Astar/Phala/...`) users upload their files to [IPFS W3Auth Gateway](https://wiki.crust.network/docs/en/buildIPFSWeb3AuthGW) and decentralized pin their files on [Crust Network](https://crust.network) by using the standard [IPFS W3Auth Pinning Service](https://wiki.crust.network/docs/en/buildIPFSW3AuthPin). This module is a 100% IPFS compatible file storage module, users can pin **NFT files**, host **DApps** or store **on-chain data** in totally DECENTRALIZED way(`guaranteed by Crust protocol`).
Also, the Pinning Service is compatible with several Platforms like `Ethereum`, `Polygon`, `Solana` and `Near`, and funded by [Decentralized Cloud Foundation](https://decloudf.com/). So currently, `Bizinikiwi Files` is FREE for all the bizinikiwi-based chains!

## Features

Basically, the function is simple, it consist with 2 major parts: `Upload File` and `Manage File Directory`.

### Upload File

Upload files with bizinikiwi-based chains account, you can also copy the cid to [Crust Apps](https://apps.crust.network/?rpc=wss%3A%2F%2Frpc.crust.network#/storage) to see how many IPFS replicas of your file.

### Manage files directory

Because the whole files module is decentralized, so your file directory is cached in browser, but you can export and import your file directory info.
