Crypto and AI are the most game-changing innovations in the past decade and DePIN represents the perfect marriage between these two technologies.

Short for “Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks”, DePIN are blockchain protocols that build, maintain, and operate infrastructure in the physical world in an open and decentralized manner. These networks utilize cryptocurrency tokens to incentivize creation of real-world technical infrastructures through the computing power of individuals from across the globe.

In this article, we’d like to introduce you to our DePIN platform, Copute, and how its innovative protocol that can address the rapidly growing demand for high-end rendering services and democratize high-performance GPU computing.

How Copute Works and Answers The Burning Market Demand

The digital creation and generative AI markets — like ChatGPT- are experiencing remarkable growth, driving a surge in demand for high-end rendering services to power these intensive activities. Valued at USD 23.9B in 2021, the GPU market is expected to reach USD 130.02B by 2027 (CAGR 32.7%), with strong growth potential in the Asia-Pacific region.

To answer this demand, we have developed Copute, an accessible, cost-effective, decentralized computing network utilizing a unique “Cloud + Chain” DePIN Web3 protocol.

Our cloud-powered network operates in a fully peer-to-peer manner, enabling seamless access and resource sharing of high-performance computing for users across the globe. Thanks to the modular and decentralized infrastructure of the blockchain, we can greatly reduce costs while flexibly scaling our platform as it grows in user and activity volume without sacrificing security in transparency in resource allocation.

Additionally, Copute utilizes edge computing to reduce latency and allow for instantaneous response, providing an exceptional user experience in a market notorious for lacking in that particular aspect. We are also committed to delivering affordable excellence, providing instant access to powerful cloud GPUs at the best prices, empowering developers and users in AI and cloud gaming, and reshaping how GPU computing power is harnessed and enjoyed globally.

Today, Copute stands at the forefront of DePIN as the premier GPU rental provider delivering unparalleled performance at a minimal cost. We are a proud partner and service provider for major companies such as TikTok and MiHoYo as well as universities globally.

Copute Ecosystem

AI Cloud Computing Platform

The Copute cloud platform combines computing services like rental, leasing, image creation, and open-source algorithm sharing, providing user-friendly operations and flexible billing. It aims to evolve into a comprehensive AI distributed computing hub, offering one-stop services for power usage, rental, sharing, datasets, algorithms, and AI development. You can access the AI Cloud Computing Platform via our official website copute.ai and we plan to release new computing types in early 2024. Please stay tuned on our official social media channels for more official announcements on this.

Cloud Gaming Platform

Currently, aside from the core AI Cloud Computing Platform, we are also developing a Cloud Gaming Platform based on market demand. Cloud gaming is a hotly demanded market that is projected to reach US$22.01B in market volume and 497M users by 2028.

Using the Copute computing network, our Cloud Gaming Platform offers a cloud game rendering engine for HD gaming on low-config devices. By using the lightweight client, our users can leverage high-end GPUs like 3090, 4080, and 4090 power their gaming experience instead of relying on native device storage, liberating their gaming experience from device limitations. The cloud game client is currently in testing and by 2024, the platform will be compatible with both PC and mobile.

Copute DAO

We are also building an Copute DAO that will collectively establishes guidelines for our DePIN Web3 ecosystem, promoting a global and decentralized approach while keeping costs low and driving competitive pricing. To facilita the DAO, we will issue our own COPU token that gives members, be it investors or active participants, governance over the Copute ecosystem. More information about the Copute DAO will be revealed in future updates from us, so please stay tuned!

Looking Forward to 2024

In 2024, we are aiming to rapidly scale our community and further development the Copute product ecosystem by releasing new products that will provide innovative core features enhancing the experience of Copute ecosystem participants. Our target is to serve over 100,000 users by the end of the year and have our mainnet as well as token go live. We look forward to sharing more development updates with you and serving as your trusted GPU rendering platform of choice.
