How to get FIL in Filecoin, in view of this problem, this article introduces the corresponding analysis and answer in detail, hoping to help more partners who want to solve this problem to find a more simple and feasible way.

The IPFS agreement has two trading markets, the data retrieval market and the data storage market, in which both parties submit their own needs and conclude transactions. Based on this, Filecoin miners are also divided into retrieval miners and storage miners.

Retrieve miners and storage miners

Retrieval miners help users extract saved content or provide retrieval services and bandwidth to obtain retrieval fees; storage miners obtain users' storage fees by providing storage space capacity in the market. At the same time, storage miners get the right to create blocks (mining) and receive block rewards through spatio-temporal workload proof (PoSt).

IPFS

Therefore, the early miners dug for the reward of the block, and in this competition for storage content, the gap between the household mining machine and the mine will gradually widen. It is different from Bitcoin, because Bitcoin is simply the power of calculation, and the one who has the most power is more likely to pack the block.

Filecoin economic operation system

The mining of Filecoin involves a very complex operating system, because the IPFS protocol itself forms a value exchange market, and Filecoin actually forms a permit issuing market, so the whole system participants include users, miners and stock exchange.

Value exchange

In the value exchange market, miners sell FIL to the exchange for legal currency; users buy certificate FIL from the exchange as the cost of downloading data or using storage; when users need to retrieve download data, miners will send data and get FIL; paid by users. When users want to get storage space, miners will help users store data and get users' FIL.

In the card issuing market, storage miners need to mortgage a certain amount of FIL permits to sell their own storage space, and storage miners participate in the consensus agreement through the stored data to obtain the distribution of permits. In this market, search miners do not participate in the consensus agreement.

Similarities and differences between storage miners and retrieval miners

Both storage miners and retrieval miners can store data for profit. The difference is that storage miners can only accept the content distributed by the Filecoin blockchain, while retrieval miners can not only store users' data, but also buy downloaded data from other miners, or even find their own data, as long as they are downloaded by users can get download fees.

The main factors affecting miners' income

First, hardware capability: as the representative of storage and mining projects, the first priority of storage power is storage (that is, hard disk). The size and quality of hard disk affect the height of storage power and storage efficiency. The quality of a (mechanical) hard disk can be considered from the following parameters: capacity, read and write speed, cache and active chip.

Second, system environment: the future of mining as distributed storage is to create silent idle storage costs to create value, so all intelligent systems with storage space should have the opportunity to participate in it.

The current Filecoin (Test Network) operating system is: Mac OS, LinuX, the system is only the operating environment, does not directly affect the running results (just like the outer packaging does not affect food), but from the economic cost point of view, the same configuration and block rate, the hardware cost of Mac must be higher than LinuX and the future Windows, so the choice of the future system is also a necessary factor.

Software / operation and maintenance: based on the understanding of Filecoin source code, a set of customized software optimizes the operation status from all angles, automates the high efficiency and self-adaptation of operation and maintenance, and cooperates with the real-time monitoring of operation and maintenance engineers to achieve predictability and adjustment.

Fourth, the volume of the system: return to the amount of data, return to the nature of storage.

There are two core parameters:

1. Node effective storage

2. Total network storage. Effective storage refers to the effective storage space that individuals or organizations have provided for the Filecoin network, which is not the same concept as the promised storage space. The total network storage is the amount of data that has been stored in the current Filecoin network. Node effective storage / network total storage = theoretical block probability.

Fifth, node time and space:

Two types of spatio-temporal effects:

The main results are as follows: 1. The participation of miners' nodes has an obvious influence on the total amount of block income.

2. The geographical location of the node. The geographical location of the storage miner node affects the "order pool" owned by the miners. When the "order pool" is very small, the total height of the block has been limited.
