Said IPFS, actually very simple, Chinese translation for interstellar file system, it is a peer-to-peer distributed file system, is a hard disk sharing new Internet layer protocol, simple, IPFS, it can make a let more people to own idle storage space to be Shared at the same time also can earn profits of storage network, so, we will this way everyone can participate in the Shared disk storage, called distributed storage,
The interstellar alliance peng teacher to take a simple example, facilitate everybody understanding, according to the traditional Internet hypertext protocol HTTP, this HTTP, which is to enter a url when we surf the Internet in the computer, that place can see the string of the HTTP colon double slash, is this stuff, so we usually in the Internet browsing the web site or download files are after a data centre, the data center, is the centralized storage server,
If the data center of malfunction, or visit, we has been curbed, that our computer search for content, don't show any valid picture ah, this time we do can only be at the computer stunned, but IPFS agreement, among all of the files is Shared by all the address of the corresponding, in the network can query to, if your neighbor just visited you are want to open the web site, then you can open the web site or download files directly from him to see, need not access to the data center distance on the physical location, will be more close, open the speed, will be faster,
IPFS is a kind of technology, a protocol, so it's not a chain, also have no a call (IPFS) COINS,
Filecoin is a block chain, Token also called Filecoin circulate on the chain, the chain is based on IPFS agreement, also is to use IPFS technology, the introduction of this kind of economic incentives, combined with encryption currency let IPFS protocol can be used by more people, let more people are willing to come up with their own computer and storage space for others to use,
Different from the currency, Filecoin the consensus of the mechanism is not Pow, it has nothing to do with the Work force, the consensus of Filecoin mechanism based on copying prove (Proof - of - the Replication) and space-time prove (Proof - of - Spacetime), does not contain the hash intensive effort to prove (Proof - of - Work),
In simple terms, this is a (dig), is to see how much you have saved useful documentation, users to upload a file, the file will be divided into several pieces, then the miners are going to rob fragments of this file into your hard drive, can get Filecoin,
So Filecoin dig there are several key factors: first, to have users, with users to upload, this mine can dig; Then, still have to consider the bandwidth, the hard disk size, users, and so on, to be successful may dig,
IPFS officials hope everyone can participate, of each node, so dig threshold will not too high,

Shout flange?Why a personal cost is lower than the server? The enterprise directly with individual, also laborious server etc. What?
