The PORT Network Becomes the First dApp To Unite Cloud And Volunteer Computing
The PORT Network is breaking ground with a recent announcement, becoming the first decentralized P2P application to leverage the blockchain to unite Cloud and Volunteer computing. The network will increase the value of unused computation power; it will allow that power from both individuals and businesses to be sold for the PORT Network’s native token, […]

The Internet has fostered the development of machines that can collect sensor-generated data and sell it in return for passive bitcoin payments, 21 Inc stated on Medium. There are presently two paradigms by which this process works: grid computing and cloud computing. The grid refers to a group of heterogeneous machines in offices and homes that different economic actors manage. The cloud refers to the homogenous servers in data centers that single entities like Google or Amazon manage. Since the launch of Amazon Web Services, the cloud has been the better-known of the two paradigms (cloud....
Cloud computing and crytpocurrency mining may have seemed like an odd combination back in the days of GPU, and later FPGA, bitcoin mining. The rise of ASICs for SHA-256 transaction processing on the Bitcoin network, however, meant that something had to give. That's where Cloud Hashing comes in: the company charges a per-gigahash contract fee that allows users to harness the company's own mining equipment. It's bitcoin mining in the cloud. Given the fact that mining equipment is loud and noisy, Cloud Hashing could easily be compared to any other type of 'heavy lifting' computational process....
For several years now, kindly volunteers have been contributing their spare computing power to vast, distributed supercomputers, all in the name of worthy causes. Spare computing cycles have been used for everything from scanning cosmic radio signals for signs of extraterrestrial life through to calculating climate change scenarios. Now, a new project hopes to let people charge for their spare computing cycles. Traditionally, in a community grid project, one central resource (such as SETI@Home) co-ordinates thousands of volunteer computers in a cloud, relying on people giving up their....
