Lotus is the reference implementation for the Filecoin network. It is written in Go, and is maintained by the Protocol Labs team. This website contains all the information you need to spin up a Lotus node, become a Filecoin storage provider, or just tinker around with the Filecoin network! Filecoin is a network of computers that allows you to store your data online. But while online storage services aren't anything new, Filecoin is different. It doesn't use centralized servers to store your data or rely on aggressive analytics tactics to make a profit and pay its shareholders. You can find out more about Filecoin and how it works over at docs.filecoin.io.
