Welcome to MyLockChain
Manage and verify title deeds and important documents securely using blockchain and IPFS technology. By uploading a title deed or any PDF document, we generate a unique "hash" for the document, which acts like a digital fingerprint. This hash is stored securely on the blockchain, ensuring tamper-proof authenticity. The hashing process is a one-way mathematical function that converts your document into a fixed string of characters, making it impossible to recreate the original document from the hash. This ensures that your document is both private and secure, while allowing easy verification of its integrity.
**No technical skills required** – Just upload your document, let MyLockChain handle the security, and relax knowing your records are safe and verifiable anytime. Walk through the 6 easy steps below.
Note: Follow the orange buttons for the required steps; the blue buttons are optional.
Why Store Documents on MyLockChain?
Prevent Tampering & Fraud
By hashing your file and storing that hash on the blockchain, you create an unchangeable proof that the document existed exactly as-is at the time of registration. If anyone edits the document, the hash no longer matches—instantly revealing any forgery.
Decentralized & Always Accessible
Traditional storage can fail if a single server goes down or a company closes. But IPFS spreads files across many computers worldwide. Even if one “node” is offline, others keep the file available. Your important records stay safe and globally accessible.
Privacy & Security
Privacy: Only the file’s hash goes onto the blockchain—not the actual file. This means no one can read your document just by looking at the blockchain record.
Security: Because IPFS uses cryptographic hashes, any small change creates a new hash. This prevents hidden alterations or data manipulation.
Lower Costs
Storing large files on a centralized service can be expensive, but with IPFS, you pay primarily for what you choose to “pin.” Our fee structure ensures you pay only for the file sizes you actually upload—nothing more.
Future-Proof for Legal Needs
In a dispute, you can produce your tamper-proof, time-stamped hash from the blockchain and retrieve the exact file from IPFS. This level of immutability is invaluable for title deeds, contracts, insurance documents, or any record requiring legal certainty.
Easy Setup with Your Wallet
MyLockChain integrates directly with MetaMask or Coinbase Wallet. One click connects your wallet, and a small ETH fee registers your file’s hash on the blockchain. It’s as simple as uploading your document and clicking “Register on Blockchain.”
How It All Works
Upload Document → We generate a unique hash using a
one-way function.
Store on IPFS → Your file is distributed across a peer-to-peer network,
ensuring resilient, censorship-proof access.
Register on Blockchain → The hash is permanently recorded,
creating a proof of existence. No central authority can alter or remove it.
Start Protecting Your Documents Now
With MyLockChain, your documents are safer, always retrievable, and legally verifiable. Why trust a single server or paper record when you can harness the power of decentralization? Upload today, and experience peace of mind knowing your titles, deeds, or critical records are truly locked down.
Introducing IPFS: Safe & Decentralized Document Storage
What Is IPFS?
IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) is a global, peer-to-peer file network that breaks your file
into small pieces and stores them across many computers worldwide. Instead of depending on a
single server or company, your file is spread out and always accessible.
Why It’s Safe
- Redundant & Decentralized: No single point of failure—if one node goes down, other nodes still have your file.
- Content-Based Addressing: Every file is located by its unique cryptographic hash. If anyone changes even one letter in your file, the hash changes, exposing tampering.
- Immutable Storage: Since each file fragment is verified against its hash, no one can alter it without creating a brand-new hash. This makes your documents effectively tamper-proof.
Try It for Free (Up to 0.5MB)
MyLockChain allows free uploads for files under 0.5MB. Upload a small document, see how the hash and IPFS storage work, and experience the benefits of decentralized storage—all at no charge!
Secure Registration with Blockchain & PayPal
Blockchain Registration: We store your document’s unique hash on the blockchain for a tamper-proof record. No one—not even us—can alter it after it’s recorded.
PayPal-Enabled: For files larger than 0.5MB, we charge a small fee (based on file size) to cover IPFS pinning and blockchain costs. You can easily pay using PayPal, a secure, globally recognized payment method. Once confirmed, we finalize your IPFS upload and registration on the blockchain.
How It Works in 3 Easy Steps
- Upload: Select your PDF and click “Upload & Hash.” Files under 0.5MB are free; for larger files, you can pay with PayPal.
- Register: We record the hash on the blockchain, creating a tamper-proof record of ownership.
- Verify: Anyone can re-hash the file and compare it to the on-chain record. If they match, the file is authentic.
Why Trust MyLockChain?
- User-Friendly: We handle the hashing and registration. No deep blockchain knowledge needed.
- Affordable: Pay only for the exact storage you need. Under 0.5MB is free!
- Flexible Payments: We support ETH transaction fees and PayPal for bigger files—no crypto required.
- Future-Proof: IPFS + blockchain ensures long-term, censorship-resistant availability.
Ready to Protect Your Documents?
- Give It a Try: Upload a small file (0.5MB or less) for free.

Step 1: Prepare Your Document
Choose the file you want to protect. Supported file types include:
- PDF files (.pdf)
- Text files (.txt)
- Solidity source files (.sol)
- Images (.jpg, .jpeg, .png)
- Videos (.mp4)

Step 2: Pin Your Document on IPFS
Upload & Hash Document.
- Click “Upload & Hash Document” to pin the file on IPFS.
- Pinning means we keep a copy of your file on IPFS indefinitely,
so it’s always available—even if your computer is offline.
- Why? Your document is now decentralized and tamper-evident—any change
produces a new IPFS hash, revealing any forgery.
Pinning Fees & File Size Limits:
- Files up to 0.5MB: Free
- 0.5MB – 5MB: $1
- 5MB – 20MB: $2
- 20MB – 50MB: $5
- Note: Files over 50MB aren’t allowed. You’ll see a PayPal payment
prompt if your file is above 0.5MB.
Why Pin? Without pinning, your file might be garbage-collected if no node hosts it. Pinning ensures permanence in the decentralized network.

Set Up MetaMask or Coinbase Wallet.
- Download MetaMask (mobile or browser extension) or the Coinbase Wallet app.
- Securely back up your secret recovery phrase in multiple safe places.
- Add a small amount of ETH to cover blockchain gas fees for the Ethereum mainnet.
Why? MyLockChain uses smart contracts on Ethereum. Your wallet address will hold ownership of the on-chain registration for your documents, ensuring only you can record or prove authenticity.
Step 4: Connect your Wallet
Current Gas Price: Loading... Gwei
We recommend waiting if gas is above 5 Gwei to minimize fees. Transactions at higher gas can be quite costly.
What is Gas?
Gas is the fee you pay to process and record transactions on the Ethereum blockchain. Every time you make a transaction—such as registering your document’s hash—gas fees are required to compensate the network's miners (or validators) for validating and executing your transaction. Without gas, your transaction would not be processed, and your document would not be registered on the blockchain.
A small ETH fee is required to record your document hash on the blockchain. This ensures tamper-proof authenticity and makes your record publicly verifiable.
Connect Your Wallet
Not connected
Why Use a Blockchain Wallet?
A blockchain wallet (like MetaMask or Coinbase Wallet) securely stores your private keys and enables you to sign transactions. It is essential for:
- Paying the necessary gas fees to execute transactions.
- Ensuring that only you have control over your digital assets and records.
- Providing a secure way to interact with decentralized applications such as MyLockChain.
