Even with supply nearly quadrupling, today's shortage costs won't ease soon. Filecoin capacity is already secured, not waiting on future supply.

· 2026-09-03T02:27:56+00:00Top 5 Searches as of yesterday! 1. $XAUt 2. $FIL 3. $ZEC 4. $NHT 5. $DASH
AI visual analysis: A CoinEx promotional image dated 02/09/2026 displays the "Top 5 Searches" leaderboard with prices: XAUT ($4,322.65), FIL ($0.7877), ZEC ($825.60), HNT ($0.5498), and DASH ($42.05), matching the accompanying post's ranking. Note that the post lists "NHT" but the image correctly shows "HNT" (Helium), suggesting a typo in the original caption.
· 2026-09-03T09:44:05+00:006.6 days is the transit time for 500 TB between clouds, alongside $45,000 in egress and $22,345 in idle compute burn. Filecoin charges zero egress and keeps the dataset in place while GPU providers rotate around it. No egress fees.
AI visual analysis: The image contrasts traditional cloud data transfer (left, showing fragmented data moving through a bottleneck with egress arrows) against a decentralized Filecoin network (right, featuring interconnected nodes, storage units, and a central data cube with a green checkmark). It illustrates the post's point about eliminating egress fees and idle compute costs by keeping datasets stationary on Filecoin while GPU providers access them in place.
· 2026-09-03T14:23:06+00:0042 gigawatts is the US data center power demand in 2026, up from 23 GW in 2023, heading toward 134 GW by 2030. PJM capacity prices jumped 833% in a single year, with connection queues now running 5 to 7 years. Filecoin's storage runs on power that's already connected.
AI visual analysis: The image depicts a data center power infrastructure visualization, showing on the left a map of the US with red arrows depicting energy flowing from power sources to data center clusters, accompanied by bar graphs showing rising power demand, while the right side shows a global network map with blue nodes representing distributed Filecoin storage providers connected worldwide—illustrating how decentralized storage can leverage already-connected power capacity to meet surging data center demands.
· 2026-09-03T02:24:01+00:00$HBAR needs to do more with $FIL . What’s happening there? Some good work could be done. Are community still watching Filecoin? Some great marketing going on.
· 2026-09-03T20:39:08+00:00🧵The CMA pursued egress fee cuts from AWS and Microsoft TL;DR: A limited study found egress fees hardly block typical switching, but the CMA's probe says otherwise. Moving 1PB costs $120,000. Filecoin Onchain Cloud runs, $2.50/TB/month, reachable from any GPU market. No egress

· 2026-09-03T07:35:48+00:00🧵Even Azure buys capacity from Oracle TL:DR: Nadella confirmed Azure leases outside GPU capacity, including from Oracle. NVIDIA called "sold out" market buzz, then said the reading was wrong. Filecoin Onchain Cloud, $2.50/TB/month, reachable whichever provider has capacity.

· 2026-09-03T17:44:52+00:00The hidden cost of moving data between clouds isn’t just the transfer fee but rather it’s the time, egress charges, and compute sitting idle while your dataset moves. Keeping data where it is and bringing compute to it changes the equation. That’s the model Filecoin enables.
