What is Filecoin?
Filecoin is a decentralised storage system that acts as an incentive layer for the Interplanetary File System (IPFS), a peer-to-peer storage network. It was designed to incentivize the reliable storage of files on the network. It is an open protocol and backed by a blockchain that records commitments with FIL, the blockchain’s native currency. The blockchain is based on both proof-of-replication and proof-of-spacetime.

Mission
Filecoin aims to “store humanity’s most important information.” Unlike cloud storage companies, which are prone to the problems of centralization, Filecoin leverages its decentralized nature to protect the integrity of a data’s location, making it easily retrievable and hard to censor.

Store Files
Anyone can store or validate data within the network. Under the hood, all Filecoin nodes use IPFS, one of the most widely-used data distribution protocols for Web3.
Earn Rewards
Users can earn FIL tokens by providing data storage and retrieval services to users across the global network. The more data that a miner stores, the greater their storage power. By increasing storage power the miner increases the likelihood of generating new blocks and winning block rewards.
