【Project Introduction】
Filecoin is a decentralized storage network that transforms cloud storage into an algorithm market .
Miners - obtain FIL by providing data storage and retrieval
Clients- allow miners to provide storage, distribution and retrieval data services by paying FIL
[Project progress: Calibration ]
test version:
- The last day of Calibration Network
Test objectives:
- Network security, code
- Calibration network test (in operation)
- Test reward plan (launched on August 25)
- Economic model parameters (current parameters do not represent the main network)
project progress:
- The Space Race code is basically done, and the Calibration is reset again
- The reward test is expected to officially start on August 25
- Economic model is controversial, detailed explanation to be released
[Hot Spots of Last Week]
- On August 19, the Filecoin official finally "relaxed", confirming that the space race will start at 6 a.m. Beijing time on August 25. I wonder if all the miners are ready~
- On August 19th, Song Jiang appeared in Slack and bluntly stated that Filecoin was unfair and announced that measures would be taken during the space race. Then I asked the official three more times to battle with @Why.
""I will attack every miner in the space race and disqualify you from winning the prize""
- On August 22, The Force District announced the launch of a cooperation plan to help the majority of miners solve the problem of substandard order success rate, achieve a 100% storage and retrieval transaction success rate, and share 4.1 million FIL.
"IPFS Force Zone helps you enter the space race, share 4.1 million FIL rewards! 》
[Progress of testnet last week]
1) At 6:42 a.m. Beijing time on August 20th, the Calibration network was reset. The system is currently running relatively stable and the block production is relatively normal.
2) Test network operation status:
(15:00 data)
- The computing power increased rapidly last week, and within 3 days, the computing power increased to 14.5 PiB. The average daily growth rate is about 4PiB, which is the highest since Filecoin network testing, indicating that most miners are stepping up testing;
- Last weekend, the block height was close to 10,000, and the average number of blocks per tipset was close to 3.7. In the current situation where miners are relatively dispersed, it is slightly lower;
- The number of active miners on the network last weekend was close to 300, spread across 5 continents, with Asia being the most.
[Development progress last week]
- Code additions and bug fixes:
- The upper limit of mortgage setting: 1.0 FIL, reduce the amount of mortgage (not enough for large miners)
- Add the code of the debt part, if the mortgage is not enough, still have to pay
- Lots of fixes to the billing robot Bot problem, not perfect but much better
- Continuous improvement of Chain-Watch
- The message pool is optimized and the documentation is updated
- Part of the market has complete codes and enhanced data transmission robustness
- Extensive documentation updates
- Design and certification update:
- The design document continues to be improved
-
-
- Virtual machine documentation update
- Expected consensus, election draw and other updates
-
-
- Proof part:
-
-
- Rewrite a lot of unwrap code, add comments and log
- NSE algorithm implementation
-
[Last week report]
"The most complete interpretation: 1T computing power, how much FIL income can I get in a year? 》
Introduction: From a mathematical point of view, it simulates the income change after the Filecoin mainnet is launched. Considering factors such as mortgage, FIL release, attenuation, etc., how much FIL can you get with 1T of computing power?
"In the "darkest moment", what are the Filecoin operations engineers doing"
Introduction: Filecoin is different from other blockchain projects, and operation and maintenance technology is very important in the network. So, what role does operation and maintenance play in it?
