What is Filecoin?

Filecoin is a decentralized storage network launched in 2020 by Protocol Labs, designed to make the world's data more accessible and resilient. It creates an open marketplace where anyone can rent out spare storage space or pay to store data, secured by cryptographic proofs-of-replication and proofs-of-spacetime. FIL, the native token, incentivizes storage providers and enables a global, trustless alternative to centralized cloud storage.
