What is FIL

1. Project Introduction Filecoin is a decentralized storage network designed to securely and efficiently store data using blockchain technology. It incentivizes participants to rent out excess storage space, earning Filecoin tokens in return. The protocol ensures long-term data availability and integrity through cryptographic proofs. Users pay storage providers to store files, and providers must continually prove that data is stored correctly over time. Summary: Filecoin is a peer-to-peer network that enables anyone to store and retrieve data over the internet. 2.
