SKALE Labs is seeking to change the world through decentralized cloud solutions. Using EVM-powered blockchains as their primary compute and storage mechanism, they seek to capture the market long-dominated by AWS, Azure, and other centralized solutions. We have Stan Kladko, CTO of SKALE on to discuss how this is supposed to work and explain their vision of a blockchain-driven future.

Althea is a system that lets routers pay each other for bandwidth. This allows people to set up decentralized ISPs in their communities. In an Althea network, instead of one ISP at the top collecting monthly payments, many different people can earn money by expanding and strengthening the network.

Akash is a cloud for serverless computing. Using the incentivization schemes enabled by the Cosmos Network, Akash empowers architects and builders of the internet with the ability to utilize un-utilized computing resources. Conversely, those with excess computing power can open their systems for auction, enabling them to recuperate value from those resources. Corey and I have the pleasure of speaking with CEO Greg Osuri about their engineering effort and how they built this service.
