1. A tangible non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions for a method for accessing files from a blockchain with an application, comprising:
extracting metadata from a blockchain storing files within its blockchain blocks;
generating a graphical visualization of the blockchain on a Graphical User Interface that is populated with the extracted metadata;
displaying a listing of the stored files for the blockchain using the extracted metadata when a Graphical User Interface pointing device is pointing at the graphical visualization of the blockchain; and
accessing a selected file from the blockchain when it is selected from the listing using the Graphical User Interface pointing device.
