Rishikesh Kale (@callMeRishhh) works as a Developer Advocate at FIL Builders. He draws on a strong background as a developer. In a recent IPTS interview, he explained how early interest in blockchain led him to create tools and support systems for builders in the Filecoin.

Over 400 developers joined Hack4Bengal 4.0 to exchange ideas. At the Filecoin Orbit Workshop, @callMeRishhh spoke about the AI data layer, shared examples, and showed how developers use Filecoin for decentralized infrastructure. Credit to Imanish Barnwal for organizing.

Over 100,000 pieces of digital content have been registered through @numbersprotocol, including historical archives like footage from Taiwan’s Sunflower Movement. Each file is timestamped and signed, then stored using Filecoin.

.@AkaveCloud, built on Avalanche(@avax) L1, gives users full control over their data. Files are encrypted locally, stored without vendor access, and can move freely. Cold storage is offloaded to Filecoin to save on costs and retain data that isn’t used often. Infographic👇

@AkaveCloud Learn more:

.@AkaveCloud is live on Avalanche L1. It lets builders use programmable storage built on decentralized infrastructure. For cold storage, Akave uses Filecoin to store records that can’t be changed and stay accessible for years, great for AI, analytics, and trustless systems.

@storachanetwork Learn more:

.@storachanetwork is built for developers who need fast, decentralized storage for real-time apps. It supports AI models, Telegram bots, DAOs, and onchain tools that rely on public, retrievable files that don’t disappear when servers do.

.@AkaveCloud is now live on Avalanche(@avax) L1. Built for AI, analytics, and trustless applications, it supports encrypted, onchain-verifiable storage that integrates directly with existing pipelines using S3 compatibility and Avalanche subnet performance.

Free, public, and decentralized RPC access from @Filecoin & @lavanetxyz is a massive win for developers. With robust storage support from Filecoin, builders are ensuring core infrastructure remains open, reliable, and censorship-resistant.

CryptoModels 1.1.0 by @CryptoEternalAI includes verified model preservation on Filecoin. The new FLUX models, flux-dev and flux-schnell, can now be run via CLI and are accessible through Filecoin’s decentralized network.

.@FilecoinCDN is coming to Filecoin mainnet this summer. It introduces a single URL for all PDP retrievals, removing the need to manage scattered SP endpoints. Developers will be able to access content at with better performance and fewer integration

.@CryptoEternalAI mentioned Filecoin in this week’s update. Their FLUX.1 Kontext model is preserved on Filecoin, and they’re now giving builders the option to store agent code on it too. Both updates make Filecoin part of their agent infrastructure and development workflow.

An infographic on how @Cornell researcher Dr. Fielding stores over 5PB of astrophysics simulation data on Filecoin using Ramo. Instead of losing results to server purges, he keeps them available for future analysis without needing to rerun expensive simulations.

The July edition of Fresh From FF is out. It covers FIP decisions, Fil+ Round 6, Singularity v0.6.0, a new Orbit phase led by FIL-B, journalism archiving with Fasila, a Filecoin challenge at Modular Worlds, and Storacha’s Bluesky backup app. Clear look at where things stand.

Two years ago, after transmitting a simulated alien message from Mars orbit, @SETIInstitute and international radio telescopes captured and decoded the data. They chose Filecoin to store the output so it would remain intact, accessible, and protected from loss or interference.

By integrating with Filecoin, @AkaveCloud enables enterprises to combine fast, sovereign storage with long-term durability provided by the Filecoin network. Keep up the amazing work! 🚀.

There's still time for developers to submit to the @protocollabs hackathon. One standout track is from @Mosaia_io, which invites teams to build AI agents using connected tools like GitBook, Slack, and Coinbase. Final submissions are due by 9pm EST tonight.
