## Quote — verbatim

> As we're sort of like going into GPUs in the next six months for Akash, I think it'll be amazing how we can further actually maybe even provide security to Bitcoin using some of these high-end chips we'll be tapping into.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Crystal-ball question on the next six months (January 2023); Akash's GPU mainnet did ship later in 2023. The Bitcoin-securing-GPUs idea was floated as a mutual Babylon-Akash experiment.
