## Quote — verbatim

> Phase one is data center grade nodes coming online in 2025... Phase two is telco edge... closer to where data is generated. Phase three is homes, schools, and communities — the long tail, the untapped potential. Each phase expands scale, reach, and ownership... Akash isn't \[just\] about decentralizing compute. It's about decentralizing who gets to participate in AI's upside.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

The Star Cluster roadmap; ~8,300 distributed GB200 NVL72 racks (~120 kW each) equal one gigawatt of compute without a single building.
