"Agents need fast storage. Isn't Filecoin cold storage?"
A read that used to take ~15 minutes on a classic deal now takes ~300ms, fast enough for your agents.
Filecoin's gross FIL issuance is down about 75% now that Protocol Labs and Filecoin Foundation vesting has ended.
Block rewards are now the only new supply, about 21M FIL a year, down from about 88M entering 2026.

A growing share of Filecoin network rewards is now tied to winning and keeping paying customers.
@blockworksres take on one of the most significant changes to Filecoin’s reward system since the network launched.
🚨 BREAKING: FILECOIN PREPARES MAJOR NETWORK UPGRADE AS FIL SUPPLY GROWTH DROPS 75%
Filecoin has scheduled its Solstice upgrade for October 19, introducing major changes to how storage providers earn filecoin:native rewards.
The upgrade shifts incentives away from simply providing storage capacity toward services generating real customer demand.
Key changes include:
- 95% of rewards initially allocated to consensus providers, with 5% going to services
- Service rewards potentially rising to 50% over approximately nine quarters
- Unused service rewards burned instead of redistributed
The upgrade also follows the end of Filecoin's six-year token vesting schedule on October 15, which the Filecoin Foundation estimates will reduce daily FIL supply growth by approximately 75%.
The bigger shift: Filecoin is moving from rewarding storage capacity to rewarding actual usage and paying customers.

The Filecoin team has been focused all year on dramatically lowering token inflation, with the potential for sustainable deflation, while also commercializing the technology to compete at scale against major centralized storage companies.
I think we’re *very much* on the right track. From engineering to business teams there’s serious work happening and the future is looking very bright.
The Filecoin network's latest upgrade is complete! Now, a growing share of rewards will go to services that bring paying customers onto the network, and that share grows as paid demand grows.

🚨 CoinTalk WATCH: @Filecoin Solstice upgrade is going live on mainnet at 12:59 UTC on October 19, introducing a new incentive model that directs part of every block reward to services bringing in paying customers.
Under the change, miners’ share of block rewards will gradually decline from 95% to 50% over approximately nine quarters. The upgrade aims to reward services that generate real economic activity across the Filecoin network. This marks a shift toward aligning network incentives with customer demand and sustainable ecosystem growth.
