On October 14th, the main network of Filecoins first fork currency, Filecash, led by MIX Group, was officially launched. On the 15th, the main network of Filecoin was launched, and a new wave was set off again.
What is Filecash, and what is the relationship between Filecash, Filecoin and IPFS?
Filecash is a fork project of Filecoin. We know that Filecoin is a distributed storage network based on the IPFS interstellar file system. Filecoin, regarded as the representative of Web3.0, has become the largest decentralized storage project. Through the peer-to-peer distributed file system, computing devices with the same file system can be connected to each other. Using its underlying protocol, IPFS users can Quickly access files stored on the IPFS system anywhere in the world.
However, as Filecoin has adjusted its economic model many times, its gradual corporate operation is not friendly to the miners who contribute to the IPFS ecological cornerstone. The cost of purchasing mining equipment is getting higher and higher, resulting in the fact that ordinary household environments cannot meet the storage requirements of the main network. The harsh punishment mechanism also hinders the entry of external participants, and a series of disadvantages make it gradually drift away from the attributes of decentralization.
In order to solve these disadvantages, MIX Group and IPFS community members launched the Filecash project, aiming to bring decentralized storage back to the community and create a multi-win game ecosystem that is friendly to miners, friendly to the community, friendly to users, and friendly to investors. The popularization of IPFS and the expansion of node scale make the IPFS system come true. Filecash combines the characteristics of IPFS and blockchain technology. It is a brand-new IPFS network incentive layer, and its incentive mechanism is FIC tokens.
How to view the data of the Filecash network?
The all-currency blockchain data platform Tokenview will launch the Filecash block explorer soon. Through the Filecash block browser, we can easily view the network status of Filecash. Combined with the characteristics of IPFS, this browser is specially designed to launch the data section that miners are most concerned about, including the effective computing power of the entire network, the number of active miners in the entire network, the average mining income in 24 hours, the output in the past 24 hours, the current fan Area pledge amount, FIL pledge amount and other data.
At the same time, with the help of the Tokenview block browser, you can view the current ranking of miners, gain insight into the effective distribution of computing power under the current network and the distribution details of FIC under each miners address.
Now is just the beginning. Whether Filecash can inherit the original ideal of IPFS, creating a web3.0 basic storage engine that everyone can participate in, we look forward to it together.
