+Filecoin is an independent organization that collaborates with the Protocol Labs Network, and is the token behind decentralized storage. Filecoin uses IPFS, libp2p, IPLD, and many other technologies to create protocols, tools, and services to help radically improve the network and drive breakthroughs in computing.
 
+On the Filecoin network, users pay in Filecoin tokens to store their files with storage providers. Storage providers earn units of Filecoin (FIL) for storing files, and they are responsible for storing files and proving they have stored the files correctly over time.
+
+Available storage and the price of that storage is not controlled by any single company. Instead, the Filecoin network facilitates open markets for storing and retrieving files (by making storage deals between clients and providers) that anyone can participate in. At any time, users can verify that their files are being stored correctly by looking at proofs on Filecoin’s blockchain.
 #### IPFS & Filecoin: The building blocks of an open, decentralized web | Ally Haire
 
 In this talk by DeveloperAlly, she gives a quick overview of the history of IPFS and Filecoin, information about the organizations today, and gives an intro about why Filecoin exists, how it's connected to IPFS, and (at 12:46) the basics of how it works to provide a decentralized and reliable storage system.

+# Filecoin
+
+Filecoin is at the foundation of Protocol Labs' mission to create a distributed, decentralized internet and a foundation for a better digital future. Filecoin is a peer-to-peer network coupled with a token that enables an economy of storage providers.
+
+The mission of Filecoin and [Filecoin Foundation](https://fil.org/) is to create a decentralized, efficient, and robust foundation for humanity’s information.
+
+Filecoin is built using the core Protocol Labs technologies, including IPFS, libp2p, IPLD, and many more.
+
+Filecoin is a peer-to-peer network that stores files, alongside a token that enables and incentives an economy that ensures files are stored reliably over time.  It is also is a decentralized storage network that provides data persistence via a decentralized protocol, and publicly verifiable storage proofs on a blockchain.
+
+![Filecoin Master Plan](fil-master-plan.png)
+
+In this section you will learn the mechanisms for how Filecoin works, as well as how filecoin is evolving from a decentralized storage network, into a network that also provides computational ability, a Content Delivery Network (CDN), smart contracts, and much more to create the foundations for a new kind of trustless, distributed internet.
