FIL
FILECOIN:PRICE ACTION ANALYSIS|IS THIS READY FOR LONG IMPULSE ?⭐Filecoin is a decentralized storage system that aims to “store humanity’s most important information.” The project raised $205 million in an initial coin offering (ICO) in 2017, and initially planned a launch date for mid-2019. However, the launch date for the Filecoin mainnet was pushed back until block 148,888, which is expected in mid-October 2020.
The project was first described back in 2014 as an incentive layer for the Interplanetary File System (IPFS), a peer-to-peer storage network. Filecoin is open protocol and backed by a blockchain that records commitments made by the network’s participants, with transactions made using FIL, the blockchain’s native currency. The blockchain is based on both proof-of-replication and proof-of-spacetime.
Who Are the Founders of Filecoin?
Filecoin was founded by Juan Benet, who also created the Interplanetary File System. Benet is an American computer scientist who studied at Stanford University. After founding Protocol Labs in May 2014, he attended Y Combinator in the summer of 2014 with the intention of supporting both IPFS and Filecoin, as well as other projects.
What Makes Filecoin Unique?
Filecoin aims to store data in a decentralized manner. Unlike cloud storage companies like Amazon Web Services or Cloudflare, which are prone to the problems of centralization, Filecoin leverages its decentralized nature to protect the integrity of a data’s location, making it easily retrievable and hard to censor.
Decentralized storage systems like Filecoin allow people to be their own custodians of their data, as well as makes the web more accessible to people worldwide. Since participating in the Filecoin network by mining and storing is directly related to winning more block rewards, Filecoin incentives participants to act honestly and store as much data as possible

How Many Filecoin (FIL) Coins Are There in Circulation?
Protocol Labs describes Filecoin’s tokenomics, or economic model, as a “market for data” where users can sell their storage space to other users, who are looking to rent. Five stakeholders will be able to trade tokens: developers, clients, miners, token holders and ecosystem partners. There will also be three Filecoin markets, according to Protocol Labs: file storage, file retrieval and on-exchange token trading.
In fall 2020, 400 miners participated in what was called the “Space Race” testnet phase, increasing Filecoin’s network data capacity by over 325 pebibytes; approximately 3.5 million FIL tokens will be released to the Space Race participants.
How Is the Filecoin Network Secured?
Filecoin is secured through proof-of-replication and proof-of-spacetime. In the Filecoin network, nodes that are also known as retrieval miners are in competition to serve clients with data as quickly as they can. They are then rewarded with FIL fees, which encourages a network of nodes that want to replicate and preserve files.
Storage miner nodes are constantly competing for contracts to provide storage to clients to a specific length of time. When a storage miner and their client agree on a deal, the storage miner holds the client’s data in a sector and “seals” it to create a unique copy of that sector’s data. Storage miners are rewarded with FIL by clients as deal fees, and these miners can also mine blocks and receive a block reward.

5 Things That Decentralized Storage Aims to Fix
Filecoin (FIL) Looking for another Leg Up?Based on the charts it appears that the massive bull flag that Filecoin has been forming is ready for another move to the upside. Recently, we've seen file coin completely ignore the BTC movements and continue it's uptrend while BTC is indecisive or even retracing to the downside. I'm bullish on Filecoin short term and long term but remember, THIS IS NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE. Trade at our own risk. I'm putting some small amounts to see what happens, if it breaks to the upside I'll add a bit more to my position.
Happy Trading and Good Luck!
FIL to $106?Hope everyone survived this ugly dump last weeks, and the market will recover soon hopefully.
Filecoin seems to be getting ready to break up this triangle 📐 and if successful I think there is chance for run to 106 and even higher. This setup on FIL , provides great RRR 9.5!
ENTRY : local high @ 69.23
SL : local low @ 65.25
TARGET : height of the triangle projected from midpoint of the local range (BUY STOP-LMIT - SL) @ 106.80
RRR : 9.5
INVALIDATION : when SL level hit
Like👍 & Enjoy📺!
FIL: BUY THE DIP!The first time ever we have touched MA100.
Correction has dragged on far too long.
RSI is in a region where a reversal is highly likely.
Stoch RSI has revealed the possibility of a positive cross.
Do I expect further downward movement? It is possible, if it goes down that road, you could place buy orders at 95, which is supported by EMA50 in the 3D timeframe.
My hodl targets are: 201/217/248/281/298

FIL 12h Correction took place, where will next move?Another 1.5 months have passed since the publication of the previous idea for the FILUSDT trading pair
The previous idea worked completely.
And those who have listened to our idea and risked placing buckets for purchases in the $90-95 zone can already fix +30% profit.
Future expectations:
1) If the descent of the FILUSD price to the $95-100 zone is smooth, then further growth to $177-180 can be expected
2) If BTC continues to fall and the alts believe it and will begin to fall even more, and the FIL price fixes below $85 , then you will need to place new buckets for buying in the $50-54 zone

FIL 12h Good growth, maybe it's time for a correction?)1.5 months have passed since the publication of our previous idea on FILUSDT
When we published this idea with a 300% growth forecast and a maximum target of $110 , we thought there were many skeptics)
But FILUSDT surpassed our forecast by another x2, reaching 200+$
Now we are on the alert that the FIL can go to the big correction and this is not an April Fool's joke.
Corrective fall of the FILUSD price from the $232-237 zone into the first strong liquid zone below $90-95 is very likely.
If you believe that the growth of the Filecoin project token cannot be stopped, then the chart shows the levels above for you.
