🔍 Filecoin last week: The ecosystem accelerates with GPU, AI, Builders, and decentralized infrastructure

Last week marked a strong development of @Filecoin not only in technical aspects but also in the strategy of expanding its ecosystem: from storage, computing to supporting AI and paving the way for a new generation of decentralized applications. These are clear signals that Filecoin is no longer just a "storage blockchain", but is moving directly into the role of a global data infrastructure layer for Web3 and AI.

📌 The Early Builder support program officially opens for applications.

@FILBuilders and @_FilOz announce the Filecoin Services Early Builder program – supporting developer teams in building services on Filecoin. Selected projects will receive support at various milestones, direct access to the core technical team, and the opportunity to demo at the Devconnect Argentina event.
→ This is a strategic step to expand the application layer on the Filecoin storage and computing infrastructure.

📌 More than 1,500 GPUs from Filecoin have been integrated onto

Storage providers in the Filecoin network now also offer computing power through the network. This turns Filecoin into a "decentralized supercomputer", ready for inference, training, and high-intensity AI tasks.
→ A breakthrough leap: from mere storage → to a real combat compute infrastructure for Web3 AI.

📌 AI and open data are being permanently protected on Filecoin

@recallnet has integrated Filecoin to store all the data of AI competition results, from AgentRank scores to match logs – ensuring transparency and immutability.
Meanwhile, @CryptoEternalAI has stored the Devstral Small 1.1 (25 GB) model, surpassing GPT-4.1-mini by 20% in programming tasks.
→ Filecoin is becoming the standard storage for public AI data and open-source models.

📌 Filecoin is applied from CERN to Hackathons around the world

The ATLAS project at CERN once experimented with Filecoin to store 10 PiB of experimental physics data – significantly reducing retrieval latency.
At Hack4Bengal 4.0, over 400 programmers chose Filecoin to store AI content, automatic payment machines, and token-Gated data.
→ It shows that the maturity level and practical application of Filecoin are skyrocketing, both in academia and in products.

📌 The infrastructure layer of utilities is rapidly taking shape.

@Quick_sync allows the creation of a temporary anonymous storage space for 1 hour on Filecoin – no wallet or account needed.
@Titannet_dao has launched a Chrome plugin that allows users to earn money from idle IP addresses.
@LighthouseWeb3 released SDK Python v0.1.5, supporting file management, balance, and IPNS.
→ Filecoin is not just a passive infrastructure but is becoming a direct utility platform for end users.

📌 The ecosystem is booming

🔹 More than 314,000 nodes are operating in 100 countries
🔹 Over 1,500 GPUs for AI inference/training
🔹 Over 100,000 digitized files stored through Numbers Protocol, including cultural and political heritage.
→ The numbers not only reflect the scale but also spread the trust in a fair, decentralized storage and computation system.

🎯In summary

Filecoin is on the right track as a foundational data layer for Web3 and AI:
✔️ They integrate compute ( through GPU/io.net)
✔️ Protect public AI data ( through permanent storage )
✔️ Create real user utility (plugin, SDK, anonymous storage )
→ This is no longer a network that only serves miners — but a network that serves the entire decentralized data economy.

Are you investing in the future of data? Filecoin deserves a spot on your long-term watchlist.
