🗂️ Design AI systems that are trustworthy, ethical, and sustainable by tackling data provenance, ethical sourcing, and fair attribution. 🗂️ Leverage Filecoin’s decentralized storage and Data DAOs to ensure transparency, privacy, and equitable value distribution. 🗂️ We're seeking modular, interoperable, and agentic solutions across data management, decentralized computation, and real-world applications.

Qualification Requirements

1. Projects must store data on Filecoin through on-chain storage deals, by using the hot storage layer - Akave or on-ramp storage providers such as Lighthouse Storage, or Storacha. 2. Storing solely on IPFS does not qualify. 3. Solutions can be deployed on the Filecoin Virtual Machine (FVM) or on EVM-compatible Layer 2 networks that facilitate cross-chain storage to Filecoin. 4. Additional credit will be given to projects that integrate with a data on-ramp contract to streamline storage onboarding to Filecoin from other EVM-compatible chains or building a data bridge from Akave to Filecoin where data flow works fully on-chain.
