Filecoin Virtual Machine (FVM) standard
Overview
Filecoin Virtual Machine (FVM) is a runtime environment that enables smart contracts (actors) on the Filecoin network. It allows developers to write and deploy programs that interact with Filecoin's storage market and data. FVM is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine, enabling reuse of EVM smart contracts.
Within the DeFi Intel graph, Filecoin Virtual Machine (FVM) connects to 1 tracked entity, most strongly to Filecoin.
