It’s possible you’re thinking of Chia, IPFS, or FileCoin, all of which are “live” and “deployed” currently.

It’s possible you’re thinking of Chia, IPFS, or FileCoin, all of which are “live” and “deployed” currently.
- uncomputation 5y agoFilecoin is “live” only technically. There is no way for individuals to contribute, which seems to be intentional as the leadership is looking for corporate support first. It currently has no real use cases. I say this as someone who is also excited by the idea.
- aspenmayer 5y agoPerhaps you can clarify the relations between IPFS and FileCoin? I was under the impression that they were related projects of Protocol Labs, with IPFS being a dependency of FileCoin.
- shepardrtc 5y agoIf you want something similar to Filecoin that is live and in use, check out http://siasky.net/ http://siasky.net/ Siacoin has been around for a while and approaches things differently. Plus its already being used by people.
- phire 5y agoIPFS isn't blockchain. and Chia doesn't allow people to rent out storage space, it just lets them mine with HDDs instead of GPUs. The other one I'm aware of is Sia.
