Decentralised storage platform using IPFS

It works in an open source manner, so other people can contribute their ideas and features too. It is more decentralized than blockchains that we usually use for transactions like bitcoin or ethereum. In addition I would say their marketing team has done really well with making sure all the information about this project is out there and easy-to-understand. It's hard to be specific since it hasn't been released yet but if you're looking into this because of security reasons you should know that

Pros
  • Very interesting tech
  • Fast development speed
  • Great dev communityEthereum/NEMLike : The fact i'm able work from home as my own boss while still working full time
Cons
  • Secret

A great option if storing large amounts

Filecoin is a new blockchain-based protocol that aims to provide scalable, decentralized, and anonymous data storage services for computers around the world. I am currently using Filecoin to store files in the cloud at no cost when connected to a Wifi router. The user interface seems quite good, since it allows you to make use of your computer or mobile device with ease. As I said before, the user interface could be improved since it does not work very well from a mobile app (Android or iOS)…

Pros
  • The most important things for me are the low cost and the easy of use
Cons
  • The user interface is not great especially on mobile devices
