About
Fluence is a DePIN enabling a cloudless compute platform that provides a resilient, open and low-cost alternative to traditional cloud computing. The platform aggregates CPU resources from enterprise-grade data centers around the world in a global, decentralizde, resilient and cost-effective DePIN platform, allowing users to go cloudless and avoid vendor lock-in and subjective deplatforming.
Prizes
A total of $5,000 will be awarded to the most impactful use of Fluence Virtual Servers.
🎯 Goal Demonstrate a working project using CPU-only VMs from Fluence. Expectations
