About Filecoin
Filecoin is a decentralized storage network designed to "store humanity's most important information" through an open-source cloud storage marketplace, protocol, and cryptocurrency. A powerful and dynamic distributed cloud data storage network, the Filecoin network achieves staggering economies of scale by allowing anyone to participate as a storage provider and monetize their open hard drive space.
It is the missing incentive layer for IPFS and verifies that your data is being stored, while maintaining the efficiency, authenticity and resiliency provided by IPFS. Learn more at filecoin.io
