Story time. There will be a couple crypto wallet addresses at the end of this one.

You follow this account, you know that I straddle the terminator - one foot in light, one in shadow. Good-ish bad guys, bad-ish good guys, I've never belonged anywhere else.
Right before the election, I was shown some things. How it started, it was worth following. Caution was indicated. *extreme* caution.
Given the starting context, the amount of time, the volume of information, the veracity of the parts I can check without triggering suspicion ... it's real and I think there'd be some advantage to getting it all.
This is going to require some bare metal in a facility outside the U.S.

This is something that will stay up, maybe clear till the midterm election.

And it needs a significant amount of disk space, for unpacking and sorting and such.
What is needed is gonna cost around 0.2 $ETH a month at current rates.

Heading off the things that usually come up here.

Nope, can't use any sort of cloud. Bare metal, encrypted drives, all that kinda stuff is required.
Don't need any hands/eyes on this one. The inception involved those who will know what to do with the data.

Nobody you know can tell you anything more about this. It's not a social media thing. At all.
And finally, even in a worst case, not against the interests of the U.S., FVEYS, NATO, etc.

So there you have it. If you know and approve of my past work, this is opportunity knocking.

Out of curiosity I dug into how NFT's actually reference the media you're "buying" and my eyebrows are now orbiting the moon

Short version:

The NFT token you bought either points to a URL on the internet, or an IPFS hash. In most circumstances it references an IPFS gateway on the internet run by the startup you bought the NFT from.

Oh, and that URL is not the media. That URL is a JSON metadata file

Here's an example. This artwork is by Beeple and sold via Nifty:

https://t.co/TlJKH8kAew

The NFT token is for this JSON file hosted directly on Nifty's servers:

https://t.co/GQUaCnObvX


THAT file refers to the actual media you just "bought". Which in this case is hosted via a @cloudinary CDN, served by Nifty's servers again.

So if Nifty goes bust, your token is now worthless. It refers to nothing. This can't be changed.

"But you said some use IPFS!"

Let's look at the $65m Beeple, sold by Christies. Fancy.

https://t.co/1G9nCAdetk

That NFT token refers directly to an IPFS hash (https://t.co/QUdtdgtssH). We can take that IPFS hash and fetch the JSON metadata using a public gateway:
