Centralized convenience isn’t an advantage - it’s a form of lock-in.
People assume AWS dominates because they have more GPUs.
That’s not true.
They dominate because they turned cloud into an operating system: one login, one bill, one integrated workflow. Once your data, models, and jobs live there, the cost of switching is painful.
But AI pushes that model past its limits.
Compute demand is doubling every few months. Costs are spiraling.
So the cloud has to be rebuilt - the same surface area of services, but running on a distributed fabric instead of a handful of hyperscalers. That’s the architecture we’re building at @ionet.
The roadmap is intentionally broader than just a “GPU marketplace”:
→ massively expand raw supply → add more distributed compute frameworks → deliver enterprise-grade reliability → launch storage, networking, ML tooling, and a decentralized data layer
You don’t win this market with a single feature. You win by matching AWS on workflow, then beating them on adaptability and cost.
On those dimensions, decentralized infrastructure isn’t a niche experiment - it’s structurally advantaged.
This is the decade where the cloud gets rebuilt.
Not as a sidecar. Not as an experiment. As the new default.
