Enabling DataCap issuance through smart contracts

Context as of 2023/3/10

With the upcoming launch of the FVM we want to start exploring:

  • How the current Fil+ system (flow of datacap) will adapt to programmable smart contracts.
  • How can programmable smart contracts be used to help the FIl+ system:
    • automating the issuance of datacap according to logic written in a smart contract
    • have Staking based incentives to prevent collusion and keep people accountable

Next milestones:

During the FVM launch on March 14, we want to ensure the smooth allocation of DataCap to smart contracts on the FVM. Normal Fil+ tooling (LDN bot, SSA bot, Fil+ Dashboard, notary leaderboard) is not effected by the change.
Want to fix the flow of datacap to smart contracts through the Fil+ registry
Make sure this works with the client smart contract FRC
Work with FVM team to have a standard for issuing datacap from a smart contract

Immediate Focus Areas:

  • Work closely with the FVM team and make changes accordingly for the launch and post-launch of the FVM
  • Ideate and Scope out different opportunities for ways developers can use FVM to help Fil+
