The long awaited launch of Filecoin is finally here

 

One of the most awaited Initial Coin Offering (ICO) since the times of EOS cryptocurrency has finally delivered on its long awaited promise and launched its main net, opening the doors to the token being listed on exchanges. Filecoin (FIL) the token behind an innovative approach of decentralized file storage solutions was first released back in summer of 2014 and then conducted its ICO in the year of 2017, to finally deliver its main net in the recent days on 15th of October 2020.

• The ICO launched back in 2017 has started its sale at $1 per token and increased by $1 for every $40 million raised, reaching $6 per token towards the latter part of the offering
• The ICO demand has reached its sell out capacity of $200 million for distribution of 10% of all the FIL tokens
• The token distribution to its investors was set to happen on the network launch which was promised to be between 6 months to 3 years
