Filecoin

Portrait is a decentralized personal identity and website builder with integrated peer-to-peer hosting, leveraging OIP-a credibly neutral protocol providing decentralized, censorship-resistant digital identity and data management, powered by IPLD, IPFS, libp2p, and, proposed in this grant: Filecoin’s FVM. The Open Internet Protocol (OIP) is designed to address inherent shortcomings found in traditional decentralized protocols by aligning rational user behavior with network health through…

The project deploys and continuously operates an independent Curio-based Filecoin Calibration Network storage miner as a long-lived, production-like reference implementation, onboarding meaningful real-world test data to exercise workflows at scale. By expanding independently operated Curio infrastructure outside large pools and publishing operator-focused reliability and configuration insights, it strengthens Calibnet operator diversity, improves decentralization, and provides actionable…

Venus Implementation Maintenance sustains Venus as a critical secondary Filecoin client to strengthen network resilience, reduce mono-client risk, and deliver zero-day compatibility across upcoming network upgrades for Storage Providers and node operators. The project also maintains ecosystem public goods—FIPs.cc for translating protocol changes into actionable impact analysis and Filscan for improved on-chain and FVM data transparency—while implementing community-driven FIPs to accelerate…

IPNI (InterPlanetary Network Indexer) is core content-routing infrastructure that bridges the Filecoin and IPFS ecosystems by indexing and serving fast provider discovery for CIDs via a simple HTTP API. Optimized to ingest billions of CIDs from large data publishers, it enables reliable content discovery for retrieval and gateway workflows that depend on up-to-date routing information. The project is advancing resiliency and sustainability through improved replication, per-provider metering,…

Curio Storage is Filecoin infrastructure that helps storage providers maintain power and reliably execute paid storage deals through a unified, programmable deal interface. It aims to extend current deal mechanisms with a composable “Market 2.0” supporting features like deal advertising and taking, policy controls, modifications, and additional provable services such as repair and replication. By providing a stable, interoperable API surface for storage providers and data owners, Curio Storage…

Filecoin Foundation Infrastructure & Coordination Stewardship provides neutral, cross-organizational stewardship for the Foundation’s core coordination infrastructure—collaboration, identity and access management, documentation, monitoring, and public-facing channels—to ensure these systems remain secure, reliable, and auditable as teams and vendors evolve. By establishing clear ownership boundaries, least-privilege access governance, and durable runbooks with ongoing incident and request…

Interplanetary Network Indexers provide a content routing service (who has any individual piece of data) that links the Filecoin and IPFS ecosystems. IPNI has been run for the last year as a largely voluntary effort. In late 2023, we received an operational grant from PLFIF for 200,000 USD to migrate from an AWS cloud deployment to a lean bare metal deployment. The team has been able to keep the service running at this reduced capacity in volunteer time through this spring, as the usage…

The idea of this project has been discussed here. https://github.com/filecoin-project/FIPs/discussions/1040 It will be a set of smart contracts and Web UX for end-user to participate in the governance of filecoin, temperature check in this context more specifically. ## Introduction Filecoin has been using the [soft consensus](https://github.com/filecoin-project/FIPs/discussions/844#discussioncomment-7322514) process for accepting or rejecting FIP proposal since its mainnet, which has its…

Our project aims to bridge the gap between the rapidly advancing world of AI agents/developer tools and the core infrastructure of the Filecoin network. Currently, AI systems lack standardized methods to query real-time information or interact safely with essential Filecoin components like Curio or Lotus. This hinders their ability to provide accurate assistance, automate tasks, or integrate deeply with Filecoin workflows. To solve this, we propose building open-source Model Context Protocol…

Intro "Filecoin Retrieval Checkers as FWS Services" is a project to integrate the Checker Network, including the Filecoin Spark protocol and its variants, into FWS, which is the next big release from FilOz. FilOz would like Checker Network to be one of the first "service creators" on FWS, bringing retrieval monitoring and assurance to deals made on Filecoin through FWS. Checker Network - integrated with the Retrieval Checker services - will be a launch partner for FWS when it…
