Some of the primary use cases for Filecoin include:
Decentralized data storage and retrieval - Filecoin allows users to store and retrieve data in a decentralized way, without relying on centralized cloud storage providers.
Timestamped and verifiable data storage - Filecoin provides cryptographic proofs of storage that can be used to verify when and how data has been stored.
IPFS integration - Filecoin integrates with the IPFS decentralized web protocol, allowing IPFS-based applications to leverage Filecoin's decentralized storage capabilities.
Financial services and tools - The Filecoin ecosystem includes wallets, signing libraries, and other financial tools built on top of the protocol.
Decentralized apps (dApps) - Developers can build decentralized applications on Filecoin that require reliable and tamper-proof data storage.
