Filecoin
Store your data securely, reliably, and without permission.
Cryptographic proofs guarantee that your data remains available
and unchanged over time.
Protocol Labs, the team that developed the Filecoin Network and the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) protocol, recently made significant research breakthroughs that they believe will make Filecoin an extremely competitive, reliable, and scalable storage network.
More specifically, the team released two new cryptographic proofs: proof-of-spacetime (PoSt) and proof-of-replication (PoRep). These advancements will create a completely decentralized storage market, ensure that your files are secure, and allow miners to earn Filecoin (FIL) — the token of the Filecoin Network — for storing your files.
