Filecoin: A Decentralized Storage Network

filecoin : A Decentralized Storage NetworkProtocol LabsJanuary 2, 2018 AbstractThe internet is in the middle of a revolution: centralized proprietary services are being replaced withdecentralized open ones; trusted parties replaced with verifiable computation; brittle location addressesreplaced with resilient content addresses; inefficient monolithic services replaced with peer-to-peer algo-rithmic markets. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other blockchain networks have proven the utility of decen-tralized transaction ledgers. These public ledgers process sophisticated smart contract applications andtransact crypto-assets worth tens of billions of dollars.

these amassed resources into a self-healing storage network that anybody in the world can rely on. The network achieves robustness by replicating and dispersing content, while automatically detecting and repairing replica failures. Clients can select replication parameters to protect against di erent threat models.
