Fleek Review

Fleek's Web3 hosting and IPFS/Filecoin pinning service is dead - it was discontinued on 2026-01-31 as the company pivoted to AI, and the current domain is only a noindex teaser, so any remaining pins had to be migrated.

Overview

Fleek is a cloud mining contract seller in our storage category, operating since 2018. Facts are reported as of 2026-09-24 - treat claims accordingly.

What you can rent

IPFS/Filecoin storage, edge hosting, gateways (fleek.xyz now redirects to fleek.sh) You do not own the underlying hardware unless the provider explicitly says otherwise - with a contract you hold a claim on hashrate or compute for a term, not an asset you can resell.

Contract & terms

Minimum purchase: not documented. Contract term: not documented. Maintenance/fee: not documented. Payouts: not documented. Freemium/tiered; pricing page not directly scrapeable (SPA). Where a term is not documented, assume it can change and get it in writing before paying.

Proof & verifiability

Proof of hashrate/compute is not documented. A vendor claim is not proof: check for a payout address, a pool worker you can watch, or a hardware attestation before trusting a large contract.

Reliability & history

Low (pricing not captured) Noted concerns: . Facts not fully verified (reported) as of 2026-09-24 - start with the smallest possible purchase and test a payout before scaling up.

Pricing

Documented pricing: not documented - see the provider site. Payment methods not documented. KYC: unknown. Compare prices only in the same unit - a per-TH/s-day figure and a per-GPU-hour figure are not the same product.

Verdict

See the facts table above and compare with alternatives. Test with the smallest purchase and verify one payout before committing more - mining revenue moves with coin price and difficulty, so no contract is guaranteed.

++ What works

  • Was a genuinely convenient all-in-one IPFS/Filecoin hosting product (CDN, TLS, DNSLink, IPNS, ENS, CI)
  • Clear discontinuation notice gave users time to migrate (until 2026-01-31)

-- What to watch

  • Hosting service discontinued 2026-01-31; no storage product exists anymore
  • app.fleek.xyz refuses connections and docs.fleek.xyz is NXDOMAIN
  • GitHub org idle since 2024-11-28
  • Status page is stale and misleadingly still shows 'All Systems Operational'
  • No durability figures or SLA were ever published

Pricing reality check

Documented price$20 per month · $1000 per month
NotesLast published hosting prices (Wayback 2025-02-22): Free plan; Pro $20/month + resource usage; Enterprise from $1,000/month; AI agent plans $10/month (basic, 'coming soon') and $20/month (TEE). The interim AI-inference pivot (Wayback 2026-01-08) listed Free $5 credits, Pro from $0.001/GPU-second and Premium $0.005/GPU-second, all waitlist. No current price is published; the live site is a teaser.

// Fleek FAQ

What do I actually get from Fleek?

A rental of hashrate or compute. You do not own the hardware unless stated - the contract is the asset.

What is the total cost including fees?

Documented pricing: not documented - see the provider site. Fees: not documented - factor maintenance into any comparison.

Is there a minimum or a trial?

No minimum is documented - confirm with the provider.

How do payouts work?

Payout schedule is not documented.

Is it legit and verifiable?

Proof of hashrate/compute is not documented.

What happens if it shuts down?

In a contract you own no hardware, so if the operator disappears the contract is likely worthless - the pattern behind several documented collapses in our Scam Watch.

Should I use Fleek or just buy the coin or hardware?

If you cannot verify a payout and a clear term, buying the coin or owning a miner leaves you in control - run the numbers with our mining calculator first.

// The meta-review: what the internet says about Fleek

We do not expect you to trust us. This review is a meta-review: below you see what other review sites claim, what users report on Reddit, forums and complaint boards, and who actually operates Fleek. Every claim links to its source so you can verify it yourself. Our verdict forms from these sources plus our own fact checks - not the other way around.

// What other reviewers say (0)

Heads-up: most cloud mining "reviews" are affiliate content. We mark our reliability judgement on every source and include critical voices deliberately.

No third-party reviews with usable evidence found yet. In this niche that is itself a signal - most "review" sites are paid placements.

// What users say (3)

Reddit, forums, complaint boards. Anecdotes, not proof - but payout complaints and host-reliability patterns are the best early-warning system this market has.

Cloud mining ownership is often deliberately opaque. This is what we could verify - with sources. Confidence: medium (checked 2026-09-24).
