We used to call Pocket Network decentralized Infura, but now Infura is actually routing traffic through POKT wow Huge strategic move for POKT to become an open RPC base layer because now they've established themselves as the backbone for RPCs across all blockchains (50+ integrated). They're already enriched as the winner and every partner like Infura or nodies serve to further scale their network effects One of the only cases where a decentralized network is (80%) cheaper than centralized alternatives. Why? They've completely disrupted existing providers by creating an "Uber for Nodes". The massive taxi companies of crypto becoming obsolete Not only the TCP/IP of crypto, but with upcoming Shannon upgrade also will be a general purpose relay/communication network for ALL public databases and services, including custom LLMs. With AI advancing as fast as it is, AI to AI and AI to human device to AI communication requests will soon see massive traffic and POKT stands to be the best network to connect their endpoints given its decentralization and costs RPC and RESTful requests already supported, with Websocket coming later this year The market cap for decentralized computation, data availability, execution networks is in the hundreds of billions. And Competition is Fierce. Mentioned $POKT last year at $100m mc, it's now $300m facing a future decabillion dollar opportunity, and with its current trajectory, there is no competition
