One of the hottest projects in crypto at the moment is Filecoin, which has been gaining momentum mostly in China. Its long-awaited mainnet launch is now only a few days away.

Filecoin touts itself as a decentralized data retrieval and storage network designed to ‘store humanity’s most important information.’ The Protocol Labs-developed crypto project is finally poised to launch on mainnet three years after its $200 million ICO.

The network uses InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) technology which allows users to rent unused hard drive space for storage and offer their own to host content. A great deal of hype has mounted as the project aims to be a decentralized alternative to Amazon Web Services which currently has the majority of the cloud industry market share.
