The Filecoin project continues to heat up, is the launch time stable this time?

After Fil was delayed again, many miners had serious doubts about the launch time. The most frightening thing is not waiting, but waiting aimlessly. However, the official project leader of Fil declared that as long as he was not infected with the new coronavirus and died, the project would be launched on time, which rekindled the miners' expectations for Fil. Many well-known international companies announced their cooperation with Filecoin.

1. Gemini announces support for Filecoin

Jeanine Hightower-Sellitto, General Manager of Operations at Gemini (Gemini Exchange), announced on the official website that the Filecoin mainnet is tentatively scheduled to be released in the third quarter of 2020. If you participated in the Filecoin token sale, you will be able to start receiving tokens directly in your Gemini custody account when the network launches. In addition to custody services, we are also working closely with the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYSDFS) to obtain approval to provide Filecoin transactions for our customers.

Gemini's support for Filecoin should be within our expectations. After all, their founders, the Winklevoss brothers, participated in Filecoin as early as 2017. As the most successful cryptocurrency speculators in the world, their vision should not be too bad.

2. IPFS and Netflix reach cooperation

After IPFS Camp 2019, Netflix and IPFS began to work together to integrate peer-to-peer services into Netflix developer tools. Netflix said that we found a way to use IPFS to accelerate cloud build, design and test solutions to provide faster continuous integration (CI) pipelines supported by efficient p2p container image distribution.

The main reason why Netflix cooperates with IPFS is that the existing Internet protocol is no longer so perfect, and IPFS can better solve the problems Netflix encounters in its development.

3. Korean media TVCC announced its entry into IPFS

South Korea's mainstream blockchain media NewsTVCC posted on Twitter that it has prepared 10PB to provide storage space for the IPFS network, and will make more preparations and participate. They are also happy to introduce IPFS to Korean companies and people.

In addition to supporting international projects, IPFS officials are also working hard to develop and promote the project.

Protocol Labs' General Counsel participated in a hearing of the U.S. House of Representatives on March 4. At the hearing, Protocol Labs' General Counsel Marvin Ammori explained the actual implementation direction and future development prospects of Filecoin, bringing Filecoin into the public eye. Marvin said: Now the threshold for small and medium-sized enterprises to enter the cloud storage industry is very high, and this market has been controlled by large companies. The emergence of Filecoin has brought hope to small and medium-sized enterprises that want to enter this market.

After Filecoin goes online, more small and medium-sized enterprises will be able to join the storage market and compete with large companies. The increase in data volume means that miners will have more real storage orders and earn more FIL. The increase in business volume will inevitably stimulate the demand for FIL, and the steady increase in the price of the currency is just around the corner. In addition, the IPFS protocol currently has hundreds of projects connected, and these projects can be imported into the Filecoin network in the future. The Filecoin ecosystem will be very powerful.

In addition, Marvin also emphasized that they plan to launch Filecoin this year. This implies that the Filecoin team has a clear idea of ​​the time for the mainnet launch, and it is almost certain that it will be launched this year!
