## Quote — verbatim

> One attack on Render, one state attack on Render, well, if OTA, the company behind Render, it disappears. The Render network disappears right now, right? If Akash, the company behind Akash's Overclock Labs disappears, Akash will run, right? Overclock Labs operates one provider out of 50 other providers.
