Filecoin Digital Currencies
Filecoin is a data storage network and electronic currency based on Bitcoin.
Filecoin is a distributed electronic currency similar to Bitcoin. Unlike Bitcoin’s computation-only proof-of-work, Filecoin’s proof-of-work function includes a proof-of-retrievability component, which requires nodes to prove they store a particular file.
