what's a dApp? Apps for derps?

DAOs, DACs, DAs and More: An Incomplete Terminology Guide

oh...

IExec will be providing off-chain cloud computing for eth based apps (though it is blockchain agnostic and will expand into other blockchains as needed).

>off-chain cloud computing
what, like seti? But on the blockchain?

always comfy with my RLC, still undervalued

Yes, except people who rent their excess cpu will receive payment for their services. Imagine the power of all the excess cpu in the world combined with blockchain technology. This is a fundamental to the blockchain ecosystem.

here is a good rundown on the tech

Whoever is not buying BZC right now is wasting money.

yeah, sounds like a nice project, I guess. But personally I'm not really convinced this will catch on. If you really need computation power, Amazon/Google is your friend. I just don't see how a distributed blockchain solution could perform anywhere near as good and effective as the big guys. Thoughts?

P.S. I never personally search for aliens with SETI. I'm sorry. :(

SETI isn't the only one

hu??? But anyways: nobody wants to step in, and explain to me how the fuck such a distributed solution could ever compete with Amazons or Googles map-reduce factories? What kind of usecases are they even targeting/imagining?

There are cost and energy advantages to decentralisation and blockchain use. This is the base level of the project too, the future will be edge/fog computing as IoT develops, and IExec is light years ahead of anyone in this space. You can't have a blockchain revolution without this tech. Even better than aliens.

iExec confirmed support by the Mossad, why aren't you buying goys.

It's all about scale, with enough "workers" (ie: computer offering ressources) it will ultimately beat Amazon by offering lowering the price, it's just the free market.

Also most of small or middle sized server providers don't have much uptime on their machines because their pool of client is contractually determined, iExec offers a solution to that by offering a global marketplace with no middleman, it's more flexible for them, right now only AWS offers "pay per use" and it's only because they are a behemoth, it will allow smaller players to do the same.

>But anyways: nobody wants to step in, and explain to me how the fuck such a distributed solution could ever compete with Amazons or Googles map-reduce factories
I don't know about that but surely some companies are able to fill the place if iExec as a platform knows success.

>What kind of usecases are they even targeting/imagining?
Most of the things cloud computing is already used for + emerging industries like fog computing, big datas and Dapps.

Buyers are coming in, +10% in 10 minutes. Why does Veeky Forums never listen

>Most of the things cloud computing is already used for + emerging industries like fog computing, big datas and Dapps.
Yeah, I'm really not concinced they'll be able to compete with the big boys here. Wouldn't claiming new territory be a better strategy? I mean, you see all these small, mobile computers normies uses all day long? Those smart phones? They're rather limited in terms of computing power, no? Maybe that could be a more interesting market for such a thing?

hmmm, well. We'll see how this pans out.

iXec is a great project, not sure if this will boost the price thought...

They have version 2.0 in May so that should kick it up. It's a mid-long term hodl coin.

Exactly what this will eventually be used for. That is the edge/fog computing where low latency will be required for high powered apps. For now though cost competition and scalability will overcome the big players + first mover advantage into such a revolutionary space.

>edge/fog computing
ahhh, pardon my ignorance. That term is new to me.

extremely undervalued ATM - i have about 2k RLC, probably won't moon right away but its not getting any cheaper

essentially it is cloud computing but offered from the closest point to where the task is being performed, to improve latency. Imagine running an incredibly realistic VR simulation from your phone. This is already Rothschild approved as per the economist cover (see the magician)

>latency
right, right... important point if you don't wanna reduce usecases to just a bunch of boring applications.
Anyways, I'm probably not the right guy to talk to; personally I can't stand smart phones and mobile shit, and in effect don't really know what's going on at the edge/state of the art...

>tfw I am the hermit

interesting that Veeky Forums is so obsessed with borderline worthless proejcts when the whole point of ethereum is undervalued and staring them in the face.

>This is already Rothschild approved as per the economist cover (see the magician)
almost skipped this part. MY GOD!!!

>borderline worthless
>undervalued
you are mixing apples and oranges here, you're aware of that, right?

Yeah, personally I hate the direction technology is taking us. Its very matrixesque. I'm just trying to ride the wave and hoping that from whatever destruction is coming is a greater rebirth.

>The figure on the card shows a wise man, with the staff of knowledge and
the light of understanding going forward alone to establish true being. Now we are
necessarily alone for a time, and we withdraw from instruction, from seeking
experience in our environment, stepping out unaccompanied, using the light we
have gathered in these preparatory stages to guide us. We are getting closer to Self,
and we look inward more deeply than before in order to integrate the personality
attributes of intellect, feeling and instinct, making of ourselves a unity at the lower
level of being, so that we may rise to the higher level of Self. We have experienced
each of the three lower attributes separately and applied this experience to
ourselves and to our environment. Our task in stage nine is to weld this experience together in a “whole”
personality and thereby complete a solid foundation on which to build further.

Just trying to catch the gainz without understanding the true revolution

>Wouldn't claiming new territory be a better strategy?
The are claiming new territories with the Dapps.
I'm not very worried about their long term strategy personally (contrary to Golem), they know their shit since they have worked at the INRIA both with the research and private sector (Orange/BNP/Airbus but smaller sized companies too) during the last decades, I trust them to have a pretty accurate idea of what companies want.

>I mean, you see all these small, mobile computers normies uses all day long? Those smart phones? They're rather limited in terms of computing power, no? Maybe that could be a more interesting market for such a thing?

It is, that's the whole point of edge computing but that's a sectors years away from the first implementation in the real world, imo disrupting cloud provider is big already.
One last thing is that iExec will be much more resilient than AWS, Azure and co: datacenterdynamics.com/content-tracks/colo-cloud/aws-suffers-a-five-hour-outage-in-the-us/94841.fullarticle

An outage is just not possible and on the longer run it will be more trusted than any of these centralized providers.
Once the V2 is live in 5 months I think you will get it.

Just 400, I will not make it. FUCK

Don't worry user, if you're smart enough to be in this now, you will be smart enough to be in good things in the future.

Reminder that IBM is sending a specialised team to follow up on IExec's initial demo. This project is so advanced that IBM would be a complete failure if they did not get on board.

>IBM
what, that crackshop still exists? What are they doing nowadays?

only a casual $150b company with interests in this direct space

>Quantum computing
>Patents on the manufacturing of your CPU
Just from the top of my head.
