Learn about the latest developments in the IPFS/Filecoin ecosystem in 2021
IPFS is a distributed storage project, a content-addressable, versioned, point-to-point hypermedia protocol, and a huge distributed storage ecosystem. Filecoin is the only incentive layer of IPFS. Based on IPFS, it builds a decentralized storage trading market for cloud storage, makes data valuable, and allows more people to create nodes and use IPFS.

2 IPFS/Filecoin related policies
Since 2016, the country has successively issued a number of policies on the development of blockchain to guide the continuous progress of blockchain technology. In 2020, the blockchain will be included in the category of "new infrastructure", and the pace of blockchain application implementation is accelerating.
➊ In 2016, the State Council's "Notice on the National Informatization Plan of the 13th Five-Year Plan" according to law.
➋ 2017 Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's "Notice on Carrying out the 2017 Telecom and Internet Industry Network Security Pilot Demonstration Work".
➌ 2018 Ministry of Industry and Information Technology "Industrial Internet Development Action Plan (2018-2020)".
➍ In 2019, the "Regulations on the Administration of Blockchain Information Services" and "Announcement on Issuing the First Batch of Domestic Blockchain Information Service Filing Numbers" issued by the Cyberspace Administration of China.
➎ In 2019, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's "Reply to the No. 1394 Recommendation of the Second Session of the Thirteenth National People's Congress".

3 IPFS/Filecoin and Web3.0
In recent years, the negative events of the current network (Web2.0) have occurred frequently, and the biggest pain point has been exposed: centralized data storage and the subsequent adverse effects-from personal data leakage to centralized censorship by major technology companies and governments As well as a series of problems such as advertisement push based on personal data, this is also the reason why people look forward to Web3.0, to provide human beings with a highly transparent and fair distributed network.

On the other hand, with the rise and development of AI, IoT, big data, cloud computing, 5G, blockchain and other technologies, the speed of data generation is getting faster and faster. As early as 2015, the amount of human data has surpassed A critical turning point has come - the amount of data generated in this year is the sum of the amount of data generated in human history in the past, and it has entered an exponential growth stage since then. The rapid growth of data has also brought pressure on storage, especially in order to move from Web2.0 to Web3.0, the problem of data storage must be solved. Similarly, if Web3.0 wants to achieve the same rapid development as Web2.0, it also wants to solve the underlying distributed storage and other issues.
In this regard, IPFS+Filecoin can effectively solve the data storage problem. Through IPFS, the links and timestamps in IPFS can be written on the immutable blockchain, so as to achieve the purpose of using the blockchain to store data securely. As the only incentive layer of IPFS, Filecoin can solve the problem of proof of storage through the use of copy proof, space-time proof and zero-knowledge proof, that is, the effective storage of data can still be guaranteed without the participation of a third party. In addition, the decentralized storage market built by Filecoin has also established a unified and universal standardized system for data interaction.
The wheels of history are rolling, the development of the times will never stop, and the pace of Web3.0 will not stop. If IPFS+Filecoin solves the data storage problem for Web3.0, then the Web3.0 era may come faster than we imagined. Let's wait and see!
