Infrastructure-as-a-Service technology company StrongNode.io CEO and Co-founder Daniel Saito attended the AMA episode hosted by Crypto Eagles. The AMA session happened on 04 November 2022 at the Crypto Eagles Telegram group. Daniel answered questions from the group, from the Twitter audience, and from the live segment like future targets of StrongNode, latest updates, and more.

Read on for some of the StrongNode x Crypto Eagles AMA episode highlights below:

How do you overcome the Threat of CENTRALIZATION?

Daniel Saito: Wow, that’s a good one. Here at StrongNode, we harness the power from idle devices and lends it to industries that need it the most. This enables businesses to not be reliant on centralized cloud services that are expensive and bad for the planet.

While centralized cloud computing only gets more expensive and sucks up more energy as demand grows, $SNE does the opposite. More devices and industries connected to our network = more sources to harness power from.

We are now living in a decentralized world, with that there is a significant amount of computing resources that are underutilized that is laying waste at the last mile (you the consumer unit that has more than 1 digital device). That device can be added to a network, the network is comprised of various digital devices with variable uptime. As we take analytics on your device uptime and reliability, it will be given more tasks. As the network grows over time, this will fuel the network scalability issue — hence the “network effect.”

On your website, there is a Beta Launch signup form. This form is open to the public. So, when is it taking place, and who will be chosen? What will users be able to earn and experience as a result of this launch?

Daniel: Nice! I can see that they have done their research well. As I have briefly touched on this topic in an earlier question, allow me to explain our StrongNodeID and how it works:

Our team also believes in proper user authentication, so we have come up with our solution for “soul bound” NFTs in the form of StrongNodeID.

StrongNodeID allows you to pair your identity with your wallet instead of logging in with a username / password. If you have this NFT in your wallet, it will automatically log you in (similar structure to how web 2.0 executed — “sign in with Google / Facebook).

StrongNodeID is complete and ready to be shipped (white label customers are lining up for this service). We just recently opened up this service for early beta release. We are still in the development phase so changes and updates to this service is an ongoing process.
