Filecoin ()[a] is a cryptocurrency intended to be a blockchain-based cooperative digital storage and data retrieval method.[2][3][4][5] It was developed by Protocol Labs and shares some ideas from InterPlanetary File System allowing users to rent unused hard drive space.[6][7] Filecoin is an open protocol and uses a blockchain to record participation in the network.[8] Transactions are made using the blockchain's currency, FIL. The blockchain is based on both proof of-replication and proof of space-time.[9]
