📢 Filecoin Weekly Update – 15/08/2025
Last week, Filecoin recorded several important updates, ranging from cross-chain collaborations, technology upgrades to community support programs.
1. Collaborations & New Features
Launched a native data bridge with Avalanche, allowing smart contracts on Avalanche C-Chain to directly access Filecoin's decentralized storage infrastructure.
Officially deployed "mutable hot storage" (PDP mainnet), allowing data to be added or removed at any time, well-suited for dynamic datasets, AI models, or continuously updated frontends.
Supports running native Ethereum smart contracts on Filecoin (F3), bypassing the need to rewrite code during deployment.
2. Applications & Real-World Integrations
Blockfrost uses Filecoin to store backup data for the Cardano application, combined with IPFS to enhance security and redundancy.
Akave connects with Snowflake, storing vector data and Iceberg tables on Filecoin, helping to reduce costs while maintaining the SQL workflow.
Magmar launched File Vault, a feature for storing encrypted documents directly in the smart wallet.
Numbers Protocol attaches digital signatures to content upon creation and stores it on Filecoin to combat forgery and deepfakes.
3. Infrastructure & Tools for Developers
Lighthouse SDK v0.1.5 adds file management APIs, balance, keys, while supporting IPNS for version linking.
Lava Network implemented RPC Pools, providing stable Filecoin endpoints and automatically switching to healthy nodes in case of failure.
Storacha MCP allows AI agents to store and retrieve data on Filecoin through a common interface, without the need for custom APIs.
4. Community & Funding
ProPGF Batch 1 allocated 3.68 million USD to 14 infrastructure and tool projects; Batch 2 is expected to start in October 2025.
Titan Network received 150,000 USD to develop SP Bandwidth, helping Storage Providers monetize idle bandwidth.
