On Friday, the Filecoin Foundation announced via X that it has partnered with Aethir, a decentralized cloud infrastructure platform for AI and gaming. With advanced GPU leasing and Lighthouse Storage integration, Aethir will help power the Filecoin Network by securely storing AI and node data.
The two entities will build a full-stack decentralized data storage and computation solution. Aethir will explore GPU leasing to Filecoin’s storage providers, thus providing Filecoin’s infrastructure network with a reliable and secure source of GPU cloud computing supplies. In parallel to becoming sealing-as-a-service providers, some of Filecoin’s storage providers can borrow GPU capacity from Aethir if they need excess processing power to seal data onto Filecoin’s network.
Filecoin is a decentralized storage network that serves as an incentivization layer on top of the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). FIL has added 1% to its value over the past 24 hours and is currently trading at $3.757.
