The Golden Sneaker - About this site

This is an IPFS version of this site used as an experiment for hosting on IPFS to bypass regular hosting services. My goal is to have a pretty functional site that doesn't rely on server architecture at all. As it is, you can see by the domain name that this is running on Filebase. Which itself is a typical host. That is where the files reside. But the site actually works as an IPFS site, outside of their domain. I cannot provide a link for that in this page because the CID is not generated until I upload this file. In any case, physical file storage is always going to be necessary.

This experiment started with buying the domain goldensneaker.unstoppable as an Unstoppable Domain. They have effectively abandoned their idea for making IPFS anything like a new standard. So the domain is useless now. But the idea remains, and I'm going to try to make use of what I've learned so far.

The original site for this collection was The Golden Sneaker Marketplace. It's still there, because why not? It does have some cool web3 features like swapping coins and stuff.

As of 2026-06-15, I am migrating off that marketplace, and going with this new hosting model. Since I own this domain, I decided to replace that site with this IPFS version. The host for that site has been really cool with providing that service. But it is an extremely limited CMS that is mostly broken most of the time. So I'm moving out of there.
