iExec’s Grand Plans: AI Privacy, RLC Token Magic, and a Dash of Humor!

by

Ah, iExec! The Web3 infrastructure startup that’s got more plans than a cat has lives. With its ambitious 2025 roadmap, they’re not just aiming to expand the utility of their native token RLC; they’re looking to catapult it into the stratosphere of technological development and become the go-to foundation for “Trusted AI” applications. Because who doesn’t want a trustworthy AI? It’s like wanting a pet rock that actually fetches.

Now, if you’re wondering what iExec actually does, think of it as a marketplace for decentralized cloud computing resources. Imagine Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud had a love child that decided to live off the grid. Instead of sprawling data centers, iExec relies on a community of independent nodes. It’s like a neighborhood potluck, but instead of casseroles, you’re sharing computing power. Yum!

iExec is primarily targeting decentralized application developers who need computing power that makes the Ethereum Virtual Machine look like a toddler trying to lift a boulder. If an Ethereum-based dApp wants to scale to support hundreds of thousands of users, it’s going to need more computing power than a caffeinated octopus on a keyboard. Relying solely on the EVM would be like trying to run a marathon in flip-flops—painful and likely to end in tears.

We’re serious about this, folks!

On the tech front, iExec has a buffet of innovations lined up, including deploying more TEE-enabled graphics processing units for confidential AI applications. They’re also scaling the iApp Generator to support private communications for privacy-focused apps. And let’s not forget “Datapools,” which will help reduce network congestion. It’s like a traffic cop for data—keeping things moving smoothly.

iExec’s researchers are doubling down on their work with Bellecour, a sidechain project that aims to increase network scale. They’re also focusing on expanding Ethereum interoperability, which sounds fancy and important. Meanwhile, they’ll continue to optimize iExec’s PoCo consensus mechanism to improve performance. Because who doesn’t want a high-performing mechanism? It’s like having a sports car instead of a tricycle.

In the meantime, iExec is looking to engage in more collaborations and strategic partnerships with the decentralized computing, AI, and DePIN industries. They’re like social butterflies, flitting from one partnership to another, all in the name of driving adoption and scaling up TEE machines on their network.

And let’s not forget their highly successful $10 million startup competition in collaboration with Start in Block. They’re incentivizing developers to build on their network, while reinforcing ties with Nvidia and the Confidential Computing Consortium. It’s like a techie version of a family reunion, but with fewer awkward conversations.

Finally, iExec is ramping up its marketing strategy with targeted advertising campaigns and community outreach. They’re even collaborating with CoinMarketCap for live sessions, building on last year’s 1.3-million user Revolut campaign. The community can look forward to more rewards programs that aim to incentivize engagement. And yes, iExec will be gracing this year’s top crypto events, including Token2049, ETHDenver, Consensus Hong Kong, ETHCC, and Devconnect. Because nothing says “we’re serious” like showing up at a conference with a booth and a smile!
