Filecoin Onchain Cloud: Application Case Analysis and Launch of CloudPaws Early Contributor Limited Edition NFT Program
Filecoin is a protocol-based decentralized data storage network designed to provide long-term, secure, and verifiable data storage capabilities.
Navigating Web3 tides with focused insightsFilecoin officially launches Filecoin Onchain Cloud (FOC), a verifiable, programmable, developer-driven on-chain cloud infrastructure composed of modularized core capabilities from the Filecoin ecosystem. This framework aims to support the long-term development of AI, autonomous agents (Agents), data-intensive applications, and Web3 projects, unifying and standardizing data storage, retrieval, payment, and persistence on-chain.
The team announced that FOC is currently running on the testnet and includes five live core modules: Warm Storage Service, Filecoin Pay, Filecoin Beam, Filecoin Pin, and Synapse SDK. Together, these modules form a cloud infrastructure layer that is transparently verifiable, persistently available, and composable for development.
Meanwhile, multiple ecosystem projects including ENS, KYVE, Akave, Storacha, ERC-8004/AI Agent communities, and CodeX have率先 integrated and tested FOC, providing verifiable practical use cases for its application.
1. FOC's Goal: Building a Verifiable, Developer-Driven On-Chain Cloud Layer
According to official information released by Filecoin, the design principle of Filecoin Onchain Cloud is to realize Verifiable and Developer-Owned infrastructure logic, enabling public verification of data storage, retrieval, and usage processes.
FOC consists of five core modules (all available on testnet):
-
Warm Storage Service: Provides verifiable assurance of data availability and storage
-
Filecoin Pay: Handles settlement for storage and retrieval services
-
Filecoin Beam: Supports verifiable content retrieval
-
Filecoin Pin: Enables decentralized content persistence
-
Synapse SDK: Offers developers a unified access interface
Once integrated, these modules provide various applications with a trustless, publicly auditable on-chain data infrastructure.
2. Early Integration by Ecosystem Partners Validates Diverse Application Scenarios for FOC
The official announcement listed the first batch of ecosystem projects that have integrated or are integrating FOC. They provide concrete examples of the product’s real-world applications across different domains:
-
ENS (Ethereum Name Service): Uses FOC for persistence of critical data such as domain name resolution
-
KYVE: Used for verifiable archiving of blockchain historical data and content
-
Akave: Supports document and knowledge content storage for AI applications
-
Storacha: Leverages FOC for large-scale file handling and content distribution
-
ERC-8004 / Agent Community: Stores action logs, model inputs, and long-term states for AI agents
-
CodeX: Stores model weights and knowledge materials in a verifiable on-chain system
These collaborations demonstrate FOC's feasibility across multiple technical areas, including AI data layers, agent infrastructure, Web3 protocol storage, content backup, and retrieval.

4. Join the FOC Builders: CloudPaws Early Contributor NFT Officially Launched
CloudPaws is the first commemorative and participatory early contributor NFT series within the Filecoin Onchain Cloud (FOC) ecosystem, initiated collaboratively by the Filecoin Onchain Cloud team and Filecoin Foundation ecosystem members.
The purpose behind CloudPaws is clear:
To leave a verifiable on-chain footprint for every individual who contributes, tests, integrates, or participates in building the FOC ecosystem during its early stages.
If you are:
-
A developer (experimenting with Synapse SDK, building applications based on FOC)
-
An SP/RSP (participating in testing of Warm Storage, Beam)
-
An AI/Agent team (testing verifiable retrieval and persistence)
-
A Web3 protocol project (integrating FOC’s Pin / Retrieval / Pay modules)
-
An infrastructure partner
-
An ecosystem researcher or community contributor
Then you have the opportunity to become an early holder of CloudPaws.
The significance of CloudPaws lies not in "the NFT itself," but in:
-
You were one of the earliest participants in FOC
-
Your contributions will be permanently recorded on-chain
-
You are a witness and early shaper of this on-chain cloud infrastructure
-
Future ecosystem activities, whitelists, and developer programs will prioritize CloudPaws holders
If you wish to more deeply participate in FOC testing, contribution, or integration, CloudPaws will become your first formal link to the FOC ecosystem. Official minting will begin in December 2025—stay tuned.
