Circulating supply: coins currently available to trade, as reported by the data provider.

Total supply: coins created so far, minus any burned. It includes locked or not-yet-released coins.

Max supply: the hard cap on coins that can ever exist. Shown as “No max supply” when the protocol sets no cap.

How this score is calculated

A weighted average of five signals computed from the market data on this page. Each signal is scored from 0 to 100:

  • Liquidity (25%): 24-hour trading volume divided by market cap.
  • Market depth (25%): market cap, on a logarithmic scale from $10 million to $1 trillion.
  • Supply (15%): circulating supply divided by max supply, or by total supply when there is no cap. More supply already in circulation scores higher.
  • Distance from peak (15%): the current price compared with the all-time high.
  • Stability (20%): the largest recent price swing among the 1-hour move (×3), the 24-hour move and the 7-day move (÷2.6).

Bands: 75 and above strong, 55–74 fair, 35–54 weak, below 35 fragile.

Limits: the score describes current market structure only. It is not a price forecast, an audit or investment advice, and it does not consider the team, code or token unlocks. A missing input counts as a neutral 50.

About Filecoin

What is Filecoin (FIL)?

Filecoin is a decentralized storage network created by Protocol Labs, the team behind IPFS. Clients pay storage providers in FIL to store data, and providers prove with cryptography that they are keeping it. The project held its token sale in 2017 and its mainnet went live on 15 October 2020.

How Filecoin works

Storage providers commit disk space to the network and submit regular cryptographic proofs, using Proof-of-Replication and Proof-of-Spacetime, to show data is stored over time. Providers lock FIL as collateral, and if they repeatedly fail to submit proofs, part of that collateral is burned. Clients can review a provider's history before choosing one. Most Filecoin nodes are also IPFS nodes, and files are addressed by content identifier. Filecoin documents users such as NFT.Storage, the Internet Archive and Audius.

FIL is used for:

  • Paying for storage and retrieval.
  • Collateral posted by storage providers.
  • Block rewards paid to providers who win the right to create blocks, weighted by storage power.

FIL supply and token design

Filecoin has a capped maximum supply of 2 billion FIL. Block rewards are issued in two parts: a fixed simple minting component of 5.5 FIL per block reward, and baseline minting that adds more FIL when the network's raw storage power is above a baseline target that grows over time. Because collateral penalties and network fees are burned, the amount of FIL that actually circulates is expected to stay below the cap. Live circulating supply is shown in the market data on this page.

Storage on Filecoin is set up through deals between clients and providers. Programs such as Filecoin Plus were created to encourage storage of useful public data, and the network supports programmable smart contracts through its virtual machine, so FIL also appears in applications built on top of storage.

Official information is on filecoin.io.

What to check before using FIL

  • Becoming a storage provider requires hardware, bandwidth and FIL collateral, and penalties apply if proofs are missed.
  • Block rewards are volatile and depend on network conditions, so providers should not rely on them alone.
  • Storage demand from real paying clients matters more over time than raw capacity, and deals vary in terms and price.
  • FIL is also traded in wrapped forms on other chains, which depend on the bridge that issues them.
  • Exchange and wallet support differs by network. Check address formats before sending FIL.

Filecoin market analysis

With a market capitalisation of $724.42 million, Filecoin (FIL) is classed as a small-cap asset and ranks #90 of 1,340 cryptocurrencies with a reported market cap on CryptoWave, larger than about 93.3% of them. It accounts for roughly 0.03% of the combined tracked market value. Small-cap assets can move quickly on news or exchange listings, and liquidity can thin out fast in sell-offs.

Over the last 24 hours roughly $63.35 million of FIL changed hands, equal to 8.74% of its market cap, which puts its trading volume ahead of about 96.0% of tracked assets. That is an active level of turnover for an asset of this size. Its turnover ratio is higher than that of about 67% of tracked assets.

Price action: FIL moved −1.14% in 24 hours and −3.90% over 7 days. It outperformed Bitcoin by 1.07 percentage points over 24 hours and by 0.23 points over 7 days. Against the median tracked coin (ahead by 1.14 points on the day and ahead by 2.32 points on the week), it has been a relative strength in recent sessions.

To overtake NEXO (NEXO) just above it, Filecoin would need to grow its market cap by about 2.0%; it is 3.8% larger than GHO (GHO) just below. Its market cap is 0.05% of Bitcoin's.
