FIL — Filecoin

A marketplace for storage space: whoever has room left on their hard drive rents it out to others.

What it is for

Set out to: A storage market in which providers prove cryptographically that they are keeping data.
Today in addition: Onchain Cloud, Filecoin Pay, Filecoin Pin, a focus on paying customers.
Notable: Continuous proof of data retention as part of consensus.
Strength: Existing capacity and provider base.
Weakness: Paid demand is only being built up.

Contract address

Filecoin — its own chain, no contract.

The asset is the currency of its own chain and does not sit as a token on someone else’s. An empty field here would stand for a missing figure — but nothing is missing.

Where the price stands today between its two endpoints — logarithmic, because orders of magnitude lie in between.

The four cycles

Measured on daily closing prices, never on daily highs or lows. The cycle boundaries are Bitcoin’s own highest and lowest daily closes: January 14, 2015, December 16, 2017, December 15, 2018, November 8, 2021, November 21, 2022, October 6, 2025 and the current low on June 30, 2026. A day counts only if at least ten thousand dollars were traded on it. The price against Bitcoin is given in satoshi — one satoshi is one hundred-millionth of a bitcoin.

Finding

$52,860 of real storage payments against $32.8 million of issuance

Investors and partners: $205.9 million. Union Square Ventures, Sequoia Capital, Digital Currency Group, Winklevoss Capital — awards no points, because projects with large backers did not perform better.

Nexo: Carried by Nexo — purchase page documented on September 1, 2026.

No investment advice, no price forecast, no buy or sell recommendation. A high score does not mean “will rise”. It means the asset scores better on these questions than the others.
