When it comes to Filecoin, some people will inevitably love and hate. The most important thing is that the mainnet of Filecoin has been delayed and delayed. There are only futures in the market, but it is because of the rich gold content of Filecoin that the majority of miners and investors will continue to “accompany you.” run”.
Since the beginning of the space race, Filecoin’s market popularity has continued to rise, and there is a trend of breaking the circle. Many exchanges have launched FIL. The entry of heavyweight players such as Huobi and Coinlist has brought market sentiment to a new height.
As of October 6, 2020, the data from the Bee Check platform showed that FIL continued to rank first in the hot search list; as of October 5, the WeChat index showed that the IPFS (Filecoin) index was 416,127, far exceeding BTC and ETH.
As of October 6, the total computing power of the space race network has reached 441.83 PiB. Based on a MKV format and a 100-minute movie size of 700MB, the space race network is equivalent to 677,730,500 movies . Such a huge amount of data, if stored on Amazon S3, will cost $10,447,512 per month .
The investment of global miners is staggering and their strength is amazing. The powerful charm of Filecoin is attracting more people to chase. The root cause behind this is that in addition to the application value and prospects of IPFS&Filecoin, what is more attractive is the “prospect” of FIL.
Filecoin is the generally recognized blockchain 3.0, and FIL price forecasts will always be a hot spot in the next decade.
There are many methods for FIL prediction in the market, and there are many values obtained, roughly including peer comparison method, cloud service provider comparison method, and futures analogy.
Some people use Sia, Stroj, etc. to compare Filecoin. It is really not comparable. The popularity, status, and the number of participants are also very different. It is a waste of time to list the market value of these projects. Recently, the storage sector has risen overall because of Filecoin.
When comparing Filecoin with cloud service providers such as Amazon, there are also issues such as the coverage time of ecological applications. As for futures, although various futures prices are very attractive recently, even quasi-spots are not spot, and there are uncertain redemption times and uncertain redemption capabilities. We hope partners who are interested in investing will consider carefully.
There is a very simple and rude method that is quite popular with some people, and that is to use the financing amount of different projects to analogize the future market value. The specific method is based on the analogy of the financing amount of EOS, Telegram and other projects with the current market value. Within one or two months after the mainnet goes live, each FIL may reach $50.
Obviously, regardless of the difference between EOS and other projects and Filecoin in the field, Filecoin’s special mortgage mechanism, and the real application value of IPFS & Filecoin ecology, and so on, these factors that are conducive to the rise of FIL are not considered by this simple and crude method. In other words, $50 may be far from the upper limit of FIL.
For Filecoin, which has not yet been launched, the predictions are only predictions, but this does not affect our confidence, but also raises our expectations.
So, the strongest call now is: When will the Filecoin mainnet be launched?
On September 28, Beijing time, the official blog stated that the space race network will continue to operate and will gradually transition to the main network through protocol upgrades and state transitions. The main network will be launched at a height of 148888, based on the current block height and average output Block time calculation, this date is expected to be October 15th.
As soon as the news came out, it seemed like a depth bomb was dropped, which caused a sensation in the entire market. The long-awaited is finally about to usher in the dawn, and some people are still a little uncertain. After all, the Filecoin mainnet has not yet been launched, and I don’t know the final moment. Will there be a problem.
You don’t need to worry about it. The current network and the main network are only a thin line apart.
Officials have continued to move frequently in recent days. The network version has been iteratively upgraded, some loopholes have been patched, and automatic faucets have been introduced to solve problems such as network congestion and high handling fees. In general, the Filecoin network has become more and more perfect.
The voices from all walks of life and the official stances and actions are showing us: the mainnet is really not far away.
