Wrapped Filecoin (EFIL) was created by Gemini to bring Filecoin (FIL) onto the Ethereum Network, and allow it to be used across the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem.

All minted EFIL is backed 1:1 by FIL held in Gemini Custody, Gemini’s institutional-grade storage system.

EFIL is minted using an open-source Ethereum smart contract that wraps FIL and converts it into an ERC-20 token.

EFIL is converted back in FIL using the same process. FIL can be converted to EFIL on Gemini’s Mobile App and website using the wrap function.

EFIL can be easily converted back into FIL using the same steps. You can also purchase FIL and immediately wrap it by toggling “Wrap Your Filecoin Purchase” before completing your order.
