Ahmad Shadid is the Founder/CEO of io.net and Tory Green is the COO/CFO. In this episode, we review into the world's largest GPU DePIN (decentralized physical infrastructure network) called io.net! This state-of-the-art decentralized computing network built on Solana is a great example to get us introduced to the fast-growing DePIN sector of crypto. With the rise of AI and the growing demand for more GPUs in the public cloud, obtaining access to distributed computing resources presents several challenges including limited availability, rising costs, and a lack of choice. Ahmad and Tory teach us how io.net solves for these problems by aggregating GPUs from underutilized sources into an Airbnb-like marketplace to share and access massive amounts of computing power. ------ 🔗 Essential Show Links 🔗 ► Subscribe on Youtube: https://youtube.com/@defidad ► Subscribe on Apple: https://tinyurl.com/edgepod ► Subscribe on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/edgepodspotify ► Subscribe on Linktree: https://linktr.ee/edge_pod ► Follow DeFi Dad: https://twitter.com/DeFi_Dad ► Follow Nomatic: https://twitter.com/Nomaticcap ► Learn about DeFi and Web3: http://defidad.com/ ------ The Edge Podcast Sponsor Resources 🥩 ETHER.FI | LIQUID STAKING AND RESTAKING ALL-IN-ONE 🥑 INSTADAPP | THE NEW AVOCADO WALLET AND MULTISIG 🦊 METAMASK PORTFOLIO | TRACK AND MANAGE YOUR WEB3 EVERYTHING ⚖️ KYBERSWAP | DEX AGGREGATOR, AMM, AND KYBER AI TRADING ANALYTICS 🙋‍♀️ Interested to sponsor The Edge Podcast?
