📊 The demand for Filecoin storage shot up by 45% in Q3 2023. In its latest report, @MessariCrypto breaks down the current state of Filecoin. Here are top 5 questions on Filecoin's performance ⏬ 1️⃣ What does demand look like for Filecoin storage? The amount of data stored in active storage deals (between storage users and storage providers) at the end of Q3 is 1,381 PiB, which is a 45% increase from Q2. The increase in active deals indicates a strong demand for Filecoin’s decentralized storage. 2️⃣ How much storage capacity was utilized? Filecoin’s storage utilization relative to the total available storage capacity went up from 7.6% to 12.6% QoQ. This improvement is a result of both increase in active deals and decrease in average storage capacity, which is currently at ~11 EiB. 3️⃣ Who is using Filecoin storage? @MessariCrypto notes Filecoin is an appealing option for Web2 clients seeking cost-effective alternatives for storing large amounts of archival data. As of Q3, a total of 1,891 clients store data on the Filecoin network. Of this, clients onboarding large datasets (storage size exceeding 1,000 TiB) went up by roughly 25% QoQ. Major clients range from New York City to the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute and Web3 platforms such as OpenSea and Solana.
