Thanks for applying. Wanted to check in to see if you were still interested in operating as an Allocator? One of the scoring mechanisms for pathways is their ability to onboard quality data to the network. Given your existing clients, suggesting a proposal to help establish your ability within the ecosystem to serve as an Allocator performing MANUAL diligence.
Proposal Bring one of your clients into the ecosystem with an Existing Allocator Pathway. Establish that you have real clients and can maintain the diligence standards of this application. Demonstrate that to the community as the ability and value to onboarding this new Manual Pathway.
Steps
-
Work with any existing Allocator to create an application on behalf of your client. FIDL runs an enterprise Allocator if you were looking for a pathway with existing support in place to help with questions.
-
Once the data is onboarded, reply back to this application with the following
- Client ID
- Links to the DataCap Application
- Spark retrieval %
- Verification that the Data reached the targeted number of SP's
- What the data type was
Onboarding Once the ability to onboard clients through the application process has been verified, this application will receive a KYC check and begin onboarding as an Allocator to onboard clients directly.
For questions or support
- There is a live Filecoin Plus Program call every two weeks. Calendar link is here. Or as always please tag us in issue for comment or update.

Allocation Tranche Schedule TypeManual or other allocation schedule.
Initial Maximum for Each Client: Clients in the initial stages may be subject to restrictions on the overall cap to ensure fair distribution and prevent misuse. This initial cap can gradually increase as the client's participation and reputation grow in the network. Dynamic Adjustment of Overall Cap: With improvements in a client's performance and reputation within the Filecoin network, the overall cap can be dynamically adjusted. This encourages clients to contribute valuable data and actively engage in the Filecoin ecosystem. Allocator Always Follows a ""Limited Trust Over Time"" Approach: More Datacap is gradually released over time based on the time process, such as doubling the rate from the previous round. For example:
First Round: 512 TiB Second Round: 1 PiB Third Round: 2 PiB Fourth Round: 2 PiB Overall Cap for Each Client: (2 PiB)
Will you use FIDL tooling, such as allocator.tech and other bots?
Yes, all available tools

Risk mitigation strategies
To safeguard our organization, reputation, and pathway from abuse within the Yunphant Allocator framework, we implement robust risk mitigation strategies. Here’s an overview of our key measures:
Operational Security (OpSec) Standards:
Implementation of stringent OpSec protocols to safeguard against unauthorized access, data breaches, and malicious activities. Regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities proactively. User Agreements and Terms of Service:
Clear and comprehensive user agreements outlining acceptable use policies, data ownership rights, and compliance with Filecoin's community guidelines. Enforcement of terms to maintain integrity and ensure adherence to ethical data handling practices. Alert Systems and Monitoring:
Real-time monitoring systems for detecting unusual activities, unauthorized access attempts, or anomalies in data storage and retrieval operations. Immediate alerts trigger response protocols to mitigate potential risks promptly. Throttling and Rate Limiting Mechanisms:
Implementation of throttling mechanisms to regulate data storage and retrieval requests, preventing abuse and ensuring fair resource allocation. Rate limiting controls to manage traffic flow, balancing system performance with operational demands. Auditing and Compliance Oversight:
Regular audits of user activities, data transactions, and compliance with regulatory frameworks and Filecoin's governance policies. Transparent reporting and documentation of audit findings to demonstrate adherence to operational standards. Education and Training:
Continuous education and training programs for stakeholders, emphasizing data privacy, security best practices, and compliance requirements. Empowering users with knowledge to enhance awareness and mitigate risks effectively. Collaboration with Governance Bodies:
Active participation in Filecoin's governance processes to align with community guidelines, seek guidance on emerging threats, and contribute to policy development. Collaboration with regulatory authorities to ensure compliance with local and regional data protection regulations. These risk mitigation strategies are integral to maintaining the integrity, security, and sustainability of the Yunphant Allocator. By prioritizing operational security, proactive monitoring, and regulatory compliance, we aim to foster trust among stakeholders and uphold the reputation of Filecoin's decentralized data storage ecosystem.
