Filecoin Foundation (FF) facilitates governance of the Filecoin network, funds research and development projects for decentralized web technologies, and supports the growth of the Filecoin ecosystem and community.
Decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN) are gaining traction, leading to a new generation of user-owned services.

Want to dive deeper into what’s next for DePIN?

The cloud powered the last decade of software.

But it came with a cost: vendor lock-in, opaque pricing, and black-box infrastructure you’re just supposed to trust.

What if the cloud were verifiable, programmable, and truly yours? 🧵

How it works:

Storage providers cryptographically prove they're storing your data daily.

You only pay when proofs are verified onchain.

Your data remains portable and sovereign: you can choose providers, audit storage proofs, all without depending on a single company.

The vision that sparked Filecoin's creation is almost here.

Filecoin Pin launches today in alpha, bringing together IPFS's content addressing with Filecoin's verifiable storage and crypto payments. 🧵

Five years ago, Filecoin mainnet launched with a mission: create a decentralized, efficient foundation for humanity's information.

Today, that mission is alive in thousands of builders.

Thank you to everyone who's made this possible 💙

FF is working with GSR Foundation to support five projects using decentralized storage for social good.

From preserving war crimes evidence to archiving refugee stories, these initiatives show how Filecoin serves as critical infrastructure for cultural preservation and data sovereignty.

If you try to delete your Sora app account, you will lose your ChatGPT account and all your data, and you’ll be banned from signing up again.

i.e. Your data is not really yours.

An astrophysicist at Cornell runs simulations generating 5+ petabytes per simulation on the world's fastest supercomputer.

Re-running costs up to $1M in compute. Institutional storage can't handle it. Data gets deleted before analysis finishes.

Solution: Onboard the data to Filecoin.

We know information about Sumerian and Akkadian people from 5000+ years ago because it was preserved in clay.

People 5000 years from now will know about us because our most important information is preserved on Filecoin.

The race is on to digitize all films before — due to the physical properties of film itself — they decay to the point of being lost forever.

Old home movies, advertisements, and propaganda are invaluable to modern researchers and storytellers.

The Prelinger Archives is often where this material is initially digitized and put on the web.

What began as a phone call in 2000 with @footage.bsky.social and @brewster.kahle.org, founder of @archive.org, evolved into an archive of print and film material enjoyed by millions in the 25 years since.

So much important information today is stored completely digitally.

But there's a good chance it won’t be there in a few years.
