Filecoin has been designed to store the most important information of its users and assures the utmost security and privacy. It aims to create a decentralized market for storage services, which, in fact, is one of the underserved segments in the industry. In a Medium post shared by Ontology, it stated that the Filecoin network achieves staggering economies of scale by allowing anyone worldwide to participate as storage providers. It further added,
“With the existing Ontology technology, Ontology will integrate Filecoin Address and CID (Content Identifiers) to our decentralized identification protocol which is ONT ID to bridge Filecoin… As we all know, Web 3.0 is the next generation of the Internet which enables a smarter Internet and an easier life… Decentralized identity and distributed storage are the backbones of Web 3.0.”
