FilOz in 2026: Progress Report 📊 📢Real customers are paying real money for onchain Filecoin services. Here's where things stand, what we learned, and what FilOz is focused on for the rest of the year. 🔹 $139K in ARR across 165 payers on Filecoin Pay 🔹 Storacha migration complete: 3.6M+ pieces, nearly 5 TB of customer data now on Filecoin 🔹 Next up: a PDP-first Curio build for hardware providers, and the NV29 upgrade Read it here 👇 medium.com/@filoz/filoz-in-2…

🛠️ Become a Filecoin Onchain Cloud Storage Provider in Five Minutes 🛠️ Curio PDP now ships as a single Docker Compose stack. One command brings it up, a web guide handles the rest, and setup takes about five minutes. 🔹 2.50 USDFC per TiB/month for storage, no commission on the rate 🔹 One command: git clone + docker compose up 🔹 The PDP Guide handles wallet funding, storage, domain and FOC registration for you Read it here 👇 medium.com/@filoz/become-a-f…

I’ve been using @Filecoin Skills for months to publish & share work my agents produce: PRDs, HTML sites, design reviews, POCs and walkthroughs, and more. It’s just so easy. No account signup, just a session key from my wallet. Plus, even just $5 can keep thousands of typical agent artifacts around for years, content-addressed & verifiable. First look tonight in NYC 👇 Storage is a Skill Salon luma.com/knvvubia

The trillion $ RWA market needs immutable provenance records for offchain data that proves asset ownership, value and manages compliance+insurance risks. Filecoin+IPFS cryptographically tie an onchain asset to an immutable, auditable record of the data supporting it, with the performance of S3 storage for a fraction of the cost. RWAs on @avax have a head start. Get in touch if you’re building.

Agents are producing content and working across your daily tasks. But most of it remains in the chatbox, and the next person or agent needs to start over. With Filecoin warm storage, we are building the layer that agents can use to store and share with ease. @momack28 gives a glimpse on what's coming from us to power your agents with a robust warm storage layer.

The @_FilOz team has been hard at work creating the building blocks for onchain revenue (Filecoin Pay), hot storage proofs (FWSS), and smooth agentic onboarding - check out our EOQ3 update for where we're focused through EOY! medium.com/@filoz/filoz-in-2…

Since 2017, @IPFS has sponsored infrastructure that helped preserve and serve digital public goods — and now it's moving beyond sponsored gateways, toward infrastructure that doesn't depend on any single entity. 🌱 blog.ipfs.tech/2026-08-beyon… So we ran an experiment: an agent mirrored 2 verified copies of 572 @gutenberg_org books to @Filecoin, no institution, no grant, no curator. A LOCKSS node that onboarded itself to make these books last, built with engram 💙 📚 Browse the books and donate to extend the mirror's runway: projectgutenberg.filecoinclo…

IPFS is evolving. Filecoin is here to support what comes next. We’re making it easier to keep the data already living on IPFS durable, portable, and verifiable. Introducing IPFS → Filecoin. Store your IPFS pins with Filecoin: same CIDs, a fraction of what pinning services charge, and an onchain receipt you can verify yourself.

🧵A petabyte migration outlasts the bandwidth on paper TL;DR: 1 PB takes 9+ days over 10 Gbps at full speed, 16+ days at 55% utilization. Filecoin Onchain Cloud stores a verified copy once at $2.50 per TiB monthly, reachable by any compute provider without moving it again.

6/ The close Filecoin Onchain Cloud stores datasets at $2.50 per TiB per month per copy on a network independent of any GPU provider, so a training corpus stays reachable whether the next run books CoreWeave, Nebius, or a sovereign regional cluster.

🧵The 800 GB checkpoint floor TL;DR: Llama 4 Maverick’s 400B parameters occupy 800 GB in BF16 before the optimizer state is checkpointed. Filecoin Onchain Cloud stores checkpoint data at $2.50 per TiB per month per copy, independent of the next GPU configuration.

5/ Infrastructure providers can shut down. Your data shouldn’t have to go down with them. Preserve your Infura CIDs and migrate to Filecoin TODAY. github.com/FilOzone/infura-r…

Enterprise SSD contract prices rose approximately 80% in Q1 2026 alone, per TrendForce's own confirmed results, as inventories fell to historic lows and data center demand crowded out every other buyer. Filecoin storage costs aren’t exposed to that 80% surge.

5/5 Solstice began as an open community discussion before reaching the draft FIP stage. Filecoin Foundation also hosted a public forum on the mechanics and community questions. Draft: github.com/filecoin-project/… Discussion: github.com/filecoin-project/… Forum: piped.video/watch?v=Kxhverfr…

🧵What $1.279 billion in AWS commitments locked down TL;DR: Pinterest owes AWS $1.279 billion under a clause tying most of its infrastructure to AWS, even in downturns. Early exit accelerates the full balance. Filecoin Onchain Cloud has no such clause, $2.50 per TiB monthly.

$3,450 a month is the S3 Standard egress cost of moving 40TB out of AWS on a 75TB storage footprint, per AWS's own published tiered pricing for that storage class. That's roughly double the storage cost itself. Filecoin charges zero egress on the data it stores.

1/5 New dashboards are live for @Filecoin Onchain Cloud (FOC). Track approved storage providers, approval criteria, and raw performance — all in one place with detailed description of what's what. Brought to you by ProbeLab! 💪 Check it out at: probelab.io/filecoin/foc/

At least 50% of GEICO's cloud workloads are targeted for repatriation by 2029, with the replacement hardware built alongside Taiwan's Wiwynn on open, non-proprietary specifications. Filecoin storage providers were never dependent on public cloud to begin with.

Moving a 1 petabyte training corpus out of a hyperscaler costs around $90,000 in egress at list rate, before a single GPU runs on it. That's enough to rent an independent H100 for 36,000 hours. Filecoin charges zero egress. Data moves freely to wherever compute is cheapest.

Sightline Climate tracked 12-16 gigawatts of announced US data center capacity for 2026. Only about 5 gigawatts are under construction. Transformer lead times now stretch from 24 months pre-2020 to as long as 5 years. Filecoin capacity is already live. No transformer queue.
