What to know about Filecoin

Filecoin is a decentralised storage market: storage providers pledge FIL as collateral and earn it for proving that they keep clients' data. The chain moves in 30-second epochs, and that is what makes FIL deposits slow: the provider waits for a long series of epochs before crediting, as the table shows — the lower bound alone is about an hour. Filecoin has two address families. Native addresses start with f1 or f3; the Filecoin EVM (FEVM) uses f410 addresses that map to ordinary 0x addresses. Both hold the same FIL, but not every service treats them the same way, so for a swap keep to native f1/f3 addresses unless the payout field accepts the 0x form.

Wallets for this network: Ledger (Filecoin app), Glif, Trust Wallet, MetaMask (FEVM)

FIL mistakes that cost money

  • Expecting a FIL deposit within minutes. With 30-second epochs and the provider's confirmation count, plan for an hour or more.

  • Sending FIL from an FEVM smart contract. Use a regular account; contract transfers may not be detected as a deposit.

  • Pasting a Filecoin address with the testnet prefix t instead of f. Testnet addresses look almost identical.

FIL: questions and answers

Can I receive FIL to a 0x address in MetaMask?

The payout field tells you whether it accepts the address. Native f1/f3 addresses from a Filecoin wallet are always the safe choice.

Why is FIL so slow to confirm?

Each epoch is 30 seconds and the provider waits for many of them to rule out reorganisations; the table shows the current number.
