By offering a distinct implementation with its own set of security measures, Venus reduces the risk of catastrophic failures, a critical strategy for maintaining resilient cryptocurrency networks. Venus lowers entry barriers for small and medium-sized storage providers, encouraging broader participation in the Filecoin ecosystem. In the past several months, Venus has played a crucial role in maintaining network robustness alongside Lotus and Forest, delivering two network upgrades and supporting critical improvements such as the integration of FIPs, F3, DDO, and essential security updates.
