\nAccording to the on-chain data provider, Filecoin\u2019s revenue decline between July and September was due to an \u201coverall decline in demand-side revenue across the decentralized cloud storage space\u201d during that period.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
The Filecoin network is used to store data by both the demand side (storage users) and the supply side (storage providers). <\/span><\/p>\n
On its demand side, storage users can create storage deals on Filecoin, specify the amount of data they need to store, the duration of the storage, and the price they are willing to pay. <\/span><\/p>\n
Moreover, Filecoin requires storage users to pay certain fees in the protocol\u2019s native token FIL. These fees incentivize storage providers to store data reliably and prevent the network from being spammed.<\/span><\/p>\n
On its supply side, storage providers can register their storage capacity on the Filecoin blockchain and then bid on storage deals to offer their storage capacity to storage users.<\/span><\/p>\n
According to Messari, Filecoin\u2019s Demand-side base fees (the minimum fees paid to store data on the network) plummeted by 72% during the period under review. The analysis further noted,<\/span><\/p>\n
\n
\u201cIn line with base fee declining, all the other FIL fees that accrue to the protocol revenue (penalty, batch, and overestimation fees) declined QoQ.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Between July and September, Filecoin\u2019s protocol revenue totaled $14.8 million, declining by 15% from the $17.6 million recorded in Q2. <\/span>Filecoin\u2019s supply-side revenue measured in FIL also plummeted. Messari found.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
\n
\u201cSupply-side revenue in FIL decreased 16% in Q2\u201923 to 14.8 million FIL (down 34% in USD terms). The decrease was driven by an overall reduction of FIL reward issuance due to the exponential decay model and primarily the baseline minting model.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
