Computing Power is Authority: In-Depth Analysis of the Underlying Logic of Distributed Computing Networks
Abstract: Behind the explosive growth of AI lies extreme "computing power anxiety."
As traditional centralized computing power becomes monopolized, the distributed computing networks provided by Web3 are transitioning from concept to implementation. This article provides an in-depth analysis of the productivity revolution in the computing power sector and examines the core differences between different technical pathways.
I. Breaking the Problem: AI's Endpoint is Computing Power, the Crisis is Monopoly The iteration speed of AI large models far exceeds hardware output. Currently, developers face two major survival challenges: 1. Resource Hegemony: Top-tier computing chips are prioritized for supply to tech giants, making it extremely difficult for small and medium-sized teams to acquire them. 2. Cost Bottleneck: Centralized cloud providers charge significant premiums, while vast amounts of idle computing power globally cannot be effectively utilized. Core Logic: Through blockchain protocols, globally scattered hardware resources are aggregated into pools. This is not only a liberation of productivity, but also a redistribution of pricing power over computing resources.
II. Sector Analysis: Three Mainstream Technical Implementation Pathways 1. Transition from Professional Rendering to General-Purpose Computing: Certain established leading projects are transitioning their mature node networks originally used for image processing into the AI computing field through protocol upgrades. Their advantage lies in possessing a massive ecosystem foundation. 2. Decentralized General-Purpose Cloud Services: A model similar to "cloud-sharing spaces" that provides general-purpose computing resource rental. These projects offer exceptional value, typically costing only 30-50% of traditional major vendor prices, making them extremely developer-friendly. 3. High-Concurrency Cluster Interconnection Technology: This is currently the most cutting-edge direction, leveraging the characteristics of high-performance underlying chains to achieve ultra-large-scale hardware cluster interconnection. It resolves the extremely challenging communication latency problem in distributed computing and supports large-scale model training.
III. Value Capture: Tokens are More Than Just Payment Tools To measure whether a distributed computing power project has substance, examine its economic model: • Supply-Demand Balancing Mechanism: As computing power demand increases, can the system benefit holders through buyback or burn mechanisms? • Proof of Useful Work (PoUW): How can cryptographic methods ensure that remote nodes truly complete computational tasks? This is the key differentiator between legitimate technical projects and empty promises.
IV. Conclusion: The Second Half of the Computing Power Sector The hype cycle of the AI sector has passed; future market dividends will go to projects with genuine TVL (Total Value Locked) and real computational loads. Web3 is not merely providing computing power for AI, but rather providing transparency and fairness to AI's production relations.
