APhone, the world’s first decentralized cloud smartphone, has partnered with Aethir, a distributed GPU cloud computing network to fortify Aethir’s infrastructure, enhancing decentralization and security while democratizing access to its cloud services.
The announcement signals a significant milestone in the evolution of decentralized technology, as APhone’s innovative mobile devices are poised to extend the reach of Aethir’s distributed cloud infrastructure, empowering a broader spectrum of users to participate in the network.
As part of the collaboration, APhone users stand to reap substantial rewards through the upcoming Aethir cloud drop, entitling them to a share of Aethir’s native token $ATH. In reciprocity, APhone will distribute 20,000 Access Passes to existing Aethir node operators, facilitating their access to DePin-enabled smartphones. This symbiotic exchange amplifies the strength and scalability of Aethir’s decentralized network, while concurrently driving down the barriers to entry for next-generation mobile internet services.
William Paul Peckham, Chief Business Officer at APhone, Mentioned: “Decentralization is the future of mobile infrastructure, and Aethir perfectly complements our mission of bringing Web3 to the world.”
Peckham emphasized the pivotal role of community expansion in fortifying both ecosystems, underscoring the collaborative effort’s potential to catalyze the adoption of Web3 and bolster decentralized cloud infrastructure.
Aethir’s disruptive approach addresses longstanding challenges inherent in traditional cloud services, offering a solution to issues such as exorbitant costs and limited scalability.
By leveraging a global network of decentralized nodes, Aethir empowers businesses with infinitely scalable, high-performance cloud infrastructure, catering to demanding applications like gaming and AI. The decentralized cloud model brings forth a plethora of benefits, including enhanced standardization, heightened security, censorship resistance, and native payment support.
Daniel Wang, CEO of Aethir, hailed APhone’s revolutionary contribution to decentralized services, emphasizing the device-agnostic nature of accessing such services.
“APhone is revolutionary because it demonstrates that your device is no obstacle to accessing decentralized services and that any smartphone can actively contribute to strengthening the ecosystem,” remarked Wang.
He envisions a future where APhone users spearhead the proliferation of a mobile DePIN node ecosystem, underscoring the transformative potential of decentralized mobile infrastructure.
The collaboration between APhone and Aethir comes on the heels of Aethir’s highly successful Node Sale earlier this year, which raised an impressive $60 million in just 30 minutes. The resounding success of the $120 million sale underscores Aethir’s independence from institutional capital, reaffirming its unwavering commitment to the principles of decentralization.
