## Quote — verbatim

> I believe, to run a full node for an Ethereum node costs about $25,000 on Infura... it costs about $25,000 to run. And decentralized clouds will probably — right now, it's one third. I mean, so if you like money, you probably will like decentralized cloud.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Third point (cost) of why DeFi must move to decentralized cloud; he flags the figure himself with "don't quote me on this."
