Latest Progress Announcement on the Filecoin Ecosystem STFIL
The current issue is that there are still a large number of investors who cannot be contacted, which has led to the inability to complete the asset certification work. The prosecutor's office has emphasized that all certification work must be completed before the funds can be returned. Currently, it has been confirmed that out of 2488 wallet addresses, only 1200 have staked assets, while the others are empty wallet addresses. Of these 1200 addresses, currently, fewer than 400 people have claimed them, meaning that more than half of the investors have not submitted their information and cannot be found. Therefore: STFIL stakers who have not submitted their information to the Hanshou police must act quickly. $FIL

Bitcoin Ecosystem Panorama Research Report: Infrastructure, Technological Innovation and Future Development
$BTC introduction
Since Satoshi Nakamoto proposed the Bitcoin white paper in 2008, Bitcoin has gradually become the world's most valuable cryptocurrency, with a market value of over $1.24 trillion. Bitcoin is not only known as "digital gold", but is also considered an alternative to the traditional financial system due to its decentralization and anti-censorship properties. However, Bitcoin's potential is far more than just a store of value. With the development of technology, especially the rise of Layer 2 solutions, cross-chain technology and DeFi, the Bitcoin ecosystem is rapidly expanding and gradually moving towards a decentralized financial platform, driving the transformation of the Bitcoin ecosystem infrastructure and its huge potential in the future.
Filecoin is about to usher in a major upgrade: F3 accelerates transactions, PDP breaks through storage bottlenecks, paving the way for future commercialization
Hello everyone, Filecoin has made significant technological progress in the past few months, which marks a new stage in the decentralized storage ecosystem. With the launch of these key features, Filecoin's user experience, network performance, and commercial potential are constantly improving. Next, I will introduce some of the latest important developments. 1. F3 Fast Termination: Transaction speed is greatly improved With the 450-fold speed increase of F3, how will Filecoin’s block confirmation and FVM change?
Filecoin will activate the F3 function on December 4, 2024 (Filecoin nv24 version will be launched on the mainnet on November 20, and the F3 function will be officially activated on December 4). This update will greatly improve transaction speed. In the past, when we transferred money on the exchange, we usually had to wait for up to 7.5 hours for block confirmation, which made people feel that the wait was long. With the activation of F3, the block confirmation time will be shortened to a few minutes. It can be simply understood that the transaction speed of Filecoin will change from "slow ordinary train" 🚞 to "fast high-speed rail" 🚄, and the user experience will have a qualitative leap.
