BlockBeats news, on March 27, the decentralized storage protocol Filecoin announced that its “Onchain Cloud” has officially launched on the mainnet, providing developers with a programmable storage and payment layer. This service supports dual-copy redundancy across independent providers and verifies data on-chain every 24 hours through PDP proofs. If the proof process is interrupted, the system will automatically stop payments. The starting storage price is set at $25,000 per TiB per month (based on storing two independent copies by default).
Filecoin’s next phase will launch an enhanced SLA (Service Level Agreement) based on real-time performance data, as well as provide deep tool support for workflow development for AI agents. In addition, the development team will continue to optimize the PDP browser and payment process to further improve the developer ecosystem.
Filecoin stated that since the testnet went live last November, Filecoin Onchain Cloud has attracted over 100 teams in fields such as AI, decentralized frontends, compute pipelines, and data indexing. As of now, there are 478 active datasets storing a total of 49.41 TiB of data, and 81 payment wallets are connected to on-chain payment channels via Filecoin Pay.
