Phase four: thousands of nodes for low-latency distributed compute
Akash Weekly - August 17th 2022 (Akash Network)
“Phase four is to really offer low latency, heavily distributed computation, and in order for that to happen we need to have thousands of nodes spread across the world. Right now we have about 50 providers spread across the world. By the time we reach phase four we will essentially offer a product that’s unlike any other product in web2 or web3.” — 00:48:29
