A 🧵on Filecoin’s FVM and its impact on the Data Economy
Full Report: https://t.co/63rFKRuMRp
What is Filecoin❓
A decentralized storage network/blockchain that allows individuals to rent out their storage 📦
Who uses Filecoin❓
1⃣Clients who are price sensitive (Filecoin=cheap) 💵
2⃣Clients who do not trust centralized authority 🔒
But, this market is only so big and competes with storage incumbents like AWS, Google Cloud, etc.
Enter the FVM 🙌: An execution environment that enables users to deploy smart contracts on top of the Filecoin Blockchain
Why is this important❓
1⃣Brings programability to Filecoin
🔵Enables on-chain applications to utilize Filecoin’s
storage capabilities within smart contracts
🔵Opens up a third client pool: Clients that want this
storage X smart contract relationship
Potential Impact of FVM
1⃣AI: efficient storage & computation (LLMs)
2⃣Data Sovereignty: User control & safety
3⃣Decentralized Compute: Privacy, scalability & cost
efficiency
Conclusion:
1⃣FVM = storage capabilities directly within smart
contracts
2⃣Gives rise to new ecosystem for web3 apps & secure
data storage solutions
3⃣While promising, challenges lie ahead
