đ Celebrating 5 Years of Filecoin â A Shared Journey with Swan Chain đď¸
Five years ago, @Filecoin launched a mission to decentralize the worldâs data â to make storage verifiable, permissionless, and owned by its users.
At that same time, we began our journey as FilSwan â a small team with a shared vision to make decentralized storage accessible for real-world use.
đ§ľđ
From FilSwan â Swan Chain, our roots have always been intertwined with Filecoin.
Our early focus was building bridges â helping developers and enterprises bring their data seamlessly on-chain.
We started with the FilSwan Platform, built around three pillars:
⢠Auction System
⢠Web3 Automated Market Match
⢠Reputation Score
Together, they automated how storage providers and users connect in the Filecoin ecosystem.
Then came MCS
Multichain Storage, a cross-chain gateway enabling users to pay for Filecoin storage with stablecoins and mainnet tokens, bridging IPFS + Filecoin + EVM chains.
Next was FS3
the FIL Simple Storage Service, designed as a Filecoin-native alternative to S3.
FS3 made it easy for developers to integrate decentralized storage into existing apps â from logs and backups to large-scale data archives.
And finally, the Swan Client & Swan Provider
connecting directly to Filecoinâs service market, giving miners and developers a full workflow for deal management, reputation, and automation.
These tools made it simple to integrate @Filecoin storage with familiar cloud workflows, connecting traditional apps to decentralized storage at scale.
Every milestone weâve achieved has been powered by Filecoinâs strong foundation and community support.
Over time, Swan Chainâs role in the ecosystem grew:
- May 2023 â Selected by @OVioHQ for the Filecoin Open Metaverse Base Camp
- Jun 2023 â Hosted Swan Networking Night with @FilecoinFDN
- Sep 2023 â Presented at FIL Seoul
- Dec 2023 â Rolled out Multi-Chain Storage with IPFS & Filecoin
Then came a new phase, ZK innovation:
- Feb 2024 â Introduced the zk-UBI initiative for open ZK workloads
- Mar 2024 â Integrated Filecoin C2 ZK-SNARKs for proof verification
- Jul 2024 â Showcased AI Ă ZK at FIL Dev Summit Brussels
- Mar 2025 â Surpassed 1M ZK tasks processed
Through every chapter, Filecoin has been our anchor, a decentralized, verifiable data layer powering Swan Chainâs evolution into a compute & AI network for Web3.
We build on top of Filecoin, transforming storage into intelligence.
Today, Swan Chain stands as a decentralized infrastructure layer uniting storage + compute + AI â with Filecoin at the heart of it all.
The next phase?
Building scalable, verifiable compute aligned with Filecoinâs mission for a more open, intelligent internet.
To @Filecoin â with gratitude.
Your vision continues to inspire builders, researchers, and dreamers worldwide.
From FilSwan to Swan Chain, weâve grown together â and the journeyâs just beginning.
Hereâs to the next five years of decentralized innovation.
