## Quote — verbatim

> What we really want to push further is ownerless web services, where say for example you're hosting a Thor node and you're a validator and you earn income as a validator — part of the commission can actually go to pay for compute itself from Akash without you touching an Akash wallet. That's really putting our foundation for a larger vision of an interoperable cloud.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Following the "deploy on Akash button on GitHub" idea; self-sustaining, non-custodial infrastructure as the endgame.
