Golem Network

Golem Network is a global, open-source, decentralized supercomputer that allows anyone to access shared computing power. Users can either contribute their own resources as Providers or rent resources as Requestors. It aims to provide a flexible, open-source alternative to centralized cloud services, with payments facilitated by its native GLM token for tasks like CGI rendering, scientific research, and AI.

Description

Golem Network is a decentralized computing platform that allows users to share and aggregate computing resources, creating a global, peer-to-peer market for computing power. Individuals and data centers can rent out their unused CPU and GPU cycles to others for a wide range of applications, including CGI rendering, scientific research, machine learning, and AI. Golem aims to democratize access to computational power, offering a more affordable, flexible, and censorship-resistant alternative to traditional cloud providers. The network utilizes its native token, GLM, for payments and transactions within the ecosystem, with integrations like Layer 2 solutions for efficiency. The project, initially funded in 2016, is developed by Golem Factory, a company based in Zug, Switzerland.
