## Quote — verbatim

> Akash Network is a first decentralized supercloud. The idea of a supercloud... we introduced in our white paper in 2018. Now... if you Google supercloud you'll see Forbes, you'll see all these mainstream media writing about supercloud — really they discovered like last year, but we were pushing the idea for supercloud for five years.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Builds on Cornell's 2015 supercloud paper; he repeats at [00:57:00] "we know supercloud is going to be a thing, that's why we wrote the paper five years ago... we're still very early."
