1/ Introducing Filecoin Onchain Cloud: an open, verifiable cloud built on content-addressed data, transparent service delivery, and programmable payments. All onchain. No vendor lock-in.

A Union of Concerned Scientists analysis projects US data center capacity growing from 31 gigawatts in 2023 to 78-104 gigawatts by 2030, accounting for 46% to 59% of all electricity demand growth. Filecoin distributes storage across providers already running today.

82% of enterprises in Asia Pacific and Japan are considering repatriating workloads to private cloud, and 54% already have, ahead of the global average, per Broadcom's own regional lead. Filecoin storage providers never had a public cloud dependency to repatriate away from.

🧵AI can't learn from data it can't reach TL;DR: 73% of RAG failures happen at retrieval. Governed data hits 92% accuracy, and ungoverned data falls to 45%. Querying 1PB actively costs $41K/mo on AWS, $2.5K on Filecoin Onchain Cloud. The bottleneck is reachable data.

1,000% more compute is required for agentic AI, with NVIDIA warning that memory demand is now actively outpacing global capacity. Hyperscalers face multi-year supply delays for scarce silicon. Filecoin bypasses the queue. The enterprise capacity is already deployed.

EPRI's latest estimate puts data centers at 9% to 17% of US electricity by 2030, about 60% higher than its own forecast two years ago. The number keeps climbing because new construction keeps accelerating. Filecoin runs on hardware already deployed, not that buildout race.

Snap committed to spend at least $2 billion with Google Cloud over five years starting in 2017, minimum $400 million annually. If Snap fell short in any year, its own SEC filing states, it had to pay the difference regardless. Filecoin has no minimum spend to fall short of.

Autonomous vehicle sensor data runs 1.4 to 19 terabytes per hour, depending on autonomy level, per bandwidth analysis from Lucid Motors. Footage that looks useless today becomes training data once a model is good enough to use it. Filecoin is built for this. No egress tax.

A Department of Energy-backed Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory report estimates data centers could consume 9.5% to 15.3% of US electricity by 2030, up from 4.7% in 2024. Filecoin coordinates storage on hardware already deployed, not the new buildout driving that demand.

At least 50% of GEICO's cloud workloads are targeted for repatriation by 2029, with the replacement hardware built alongside Taiwan's Wiwynn on open, non-proprietary specifications. Filecoin storage providers were never dependent on public cloud to begin with.

$35.1 million in 2017, on top of $39.5 million the year prior. That is what Dropbox saved after leaving AWS, per its SEC filings. Structural cost advantages compound year over year. Filecoin delivers that same zero-egress reality today. The capacity is already built.

The Department of Energy can force any data center over 50 megawatts to switch to backup power within 15 minutes, or PJM begins rolling blackouts across 13 states and 67 million people. Filecoin storage is already distributed globally. None of them come close.

$122 million is what Ahrefs spent on its own infrastructure over six years, per its own engineering team. Using AWS closest equivalent instances, the same workload was estimated to exceed $1 billion. Filecoin coordinates storage on hardware already deployed, not cloud pricing.

26 proposed gigawatt-scale data center campuses have been tracked by Uptime Institute since 2021, ten of them above 500 megawatts. Built to plan and run at half capacity, they'd use roughly 45 terawatt-hours a year. Filecoin capacity is already running, not on that list.
