What is Filecoin

Filecoin is a decentralized storage network: owners of disk space (storage providers, also called miners) rent it out, and clients pay them in FIL to keep their data. The project was built by Protocol Labs, the company founded by Juan Benet, who also created the IPFS protocol. The first whitepaper came out in July 2014, the token sale took place in August 2017, and the main network went live on October 15, 2020.

Filecoin runs its own blockchain. A miner has to prove that it really stores the data: Proof-of-Replication shows that it wrote a unique copy of the file, and Proof-of-Spacetime regularly shows that the copy is still there. The more proven storage a miner has, the better its chance to produce a block; the consensus algorithm is called Expected Consensus. To take part, a miner locks FIL as collateral, and part of it is burned if the miner stops submitting proofs. Fees and penalties also remove some FIL from circulation for good. Since March 2023 the network has run the FVM, an EVM-compatible virtual machine for Solidity smart contracts.

FIL pays for storage and fees, serves as miner collateral and is the block reward. As in IPFS, files are addressed by content (a CID) and can be fetched from any node holding a copy. Compared with IPFS, Filecoin adds payment and cryptographic guarantees that data is stored. Compared with Arweave, the payment model differs: storage is bought as a deal for a fixed term rather than with a one-time fee for permanent storage.

What it’s used for

paying storage providers to keep data
collateral for storage providers and block rewards
paying fees and running smart contracts on the FVM

Risks

FIL supply keeps growing through miner rewards, and part of those rewards is released as network capacity grows
demand for FIL depends on real demand for paid storage, and the network competes with cloud services and other decentralized storage projects
miners need costly hardware and FIL collateral; if the work stops paying off, some of them leave, and their rewards and returned collateral reach the market

How is Filecoin different from IPFS?

IPFS is a protocol that addresses and shares files by their content, but it does not guarantee that anyone keeps storing them. Filecoin adds a market on top: the client pays a miner in FIL, and the miner regularly proves to the network that the data is still there or loses part of its collateral.

How do you become a Filecoin storage provider?

You need server hardware with a lot of disk space, the node software and FIL for collateral. A provider earns client payments and block rewards but risks part of its collateral if it stops proving that it stores the data.
