## Quote — verbatim

> Walmart recently announced that they're going to open 10,000 new data centers... because they want edge capability... ideally they should be able to sell web services \[on\] Akash.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Example of enterprise repatriation creating underutilized capacity Akash could monetize; envisions enterprises whitelisting internal workloads then selling excess to the marketplace.
