In the not so distant future we will hear of crypto companies building artificial intelligence technology. It’s happening now. Automated trading, Decentralized GPU, and Large Language Models are only the beginning. What many aren’t yet aware of is many of the best startups of tomorrow will have started as a crypto project. NVIDIA is powering some now.

I'm excited to share a success story from one of our valued partners, Consensys, the pioneer in blockchain and web3 technologies. 🌐 👇 Back in 2016, Consensys operated like a startup incubator, allowing each team to choose their own monitoring tools. This led to a fragmented approach, using Pingdom, Datadog, and Prometheus Blackbox Exporter, among others. The diversity in tools became a management headache and a costly affair. Enter Checkly. An engineer at Consensys, intrigued by our Monitoring as Code approach, piloted Checkly in 2021. The results? Outstanding. The simplicity and efficiency won over the engineers, leading to a company-wide adoption. Consensys built its observability infrastructure around Checkly, replacing a million-dollar contract and standardizing its monitoring process. Its SRE division, including Network Operations, Embedded SREs, Platform Engineering, and Security Operations, now relies on Checkly for synthetic monitoring. The best from my perspective? This approach streamlined operations and slashed their monitoring costs by 40%. 🔥🔥 Consensys now manages everything as code, with Checkly at its core. 🔥 Ohad Noam, SRE Executive Director at Consensys, shared, "Checkly’s model of usage-based pricing works well for us. We can segregate products and services, automate much of the process, and the collaboration with Checkly’s team has been fantastic." Proud to see how Checkly is helping companies like Consensys innovate and excel! 🚀 #Engineering #DevOps #Web3 #Blockchain #Monitoring #SRE #Innovation #Checkly

Aethir is proud to have once again recently achieved another significant milestone, having sold nodes worth 28000 $ETH. In celebrating the success of our #Node Sale, let's delve deeper into what it truly represents. It is more than just numbers—it is a strong affirmation of Aethir's bold vision for decentralized platform control. By committing to running a Checker Node for the next four years, users are not only showcasing their confidence in us but also actively contributing to the advancement of #decentralized infrastructure. Checker nodes are the backbone of Aethir's distributed network, ensuring high-quality service that #AI and #gaming enterprises rely on. By diligently monitoring GPU Containers, they provide a consistent flow of top-grade #GPU power, empowering industries with the computational resources they need to thrive. So, when we say "success," we are not just talking about sales figures. We are talking about a collective belief in a future where control is distributed, opportunities are democratized, and innovation knows no bounds. The more people participate in our vision by having nodes, the more we will be distributed across the world and hence the more efficient we will become 🌐🙏🏻

Offchain Labs is hiring across Engineering, Partnerships, Marketing Departments. Below you can find examples of our work in the last year! Scaling the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) with WASM: Offchain Labs has focused on scaling blockchain tech, launching Stylus, an upgrade enabling developers to use languages like Rust, C, and C++ alongside Solidity, enhancing the EVM experience (EVM+). Stylus promises 10x computation efficiency and 100x memory efficiency, supporting advanced use cases previously unfeasible due to computational demands. Introduction of Orbit: This innovation offers a customizable path for launching Arbitrum chains with features like custom gas tokens and new technical upgrades, including Stylus, supported by multiple Rollup-as-a-Service (RaaS) providers. Permissionless Validation with BOLD: A dispute protocol enabling permissionless validation for Arbitrum chains, designed to minimize validation delays and allow broader participation in chain validation. Contributions to Ethereum’s Future: Offchain Labs has made direct contributions to Ethereum with our Prysm Client team, a leading Ethereum consensus client, and participation in significant Ethereum upgrades like the Capella upgrade. Presently, they are working on EIP4844. If this level of engineering and business expansion excite & interests you - join us on the journey below! https://lnkd.in/exCSVBNN
