Filecoin Plus: Stimulating the storage of truly valuable data! 🌟💾
The Filecoin Plus program was launched to address an important issue: how to incentivize storage providers to not just fill disk space, but to store truly useful and valuable data.
Trusted clients (Notaries): The Filecoin Plus program introduces "trusted clients" (Notaries) — these are users who can receive "DataCap". DataCap is a kind of "certificate" for storing useful data.
Increased rewards: When a storage provider accepts a data storage deal with DataCap, they receive significantly higher rewards in FIL (usually 10 times) compared to regular deals.
Goal: This incentivizes storage providers to prioritize the storage of data that has high social or economic value (for example, scientific research, open data, historical archives).
Decentralized verification: The process of issuing DataCap is also decentralized and managed by the community to avoid centralized control over what is considered "useful".
Filecoin Plus is an important step toward making the Filecoin network not just a storage space, but also contributing to the preservation of the most valuable information for humanity.
