Tired of paying $100/hour for GPUs on AWS?
Hereâs why GPUnet might just replace traditional cloud for good.
A straight-up comparison đ
⸝
1. Cost
⢠GPUnet: ~70% cheaper than AWS (Barrels of Compute = $500 of power at 1/3rd the price).
⢠AWS / GCP / Azure: Extremely high hourly GPU costs, often unaffordable for startups and independent creators.
Why? GPUnet removes middlemen and uses a peer-to-peer marketplace.
⸝
2. Accessibility
⢠GPUnet: Permissionless. Anyone can rent or provide GPUs.
⢠AWS / GCP / Azure: Require KYC, credit cards, and enterprise-level onboarding.
Why? GPUnet is built on-chainâopen access for all.
⸝
3. Decentralization
⢠GPUnet: Decentralized network of GPU providers, validators, and builders.
⢠AWS / GCP / Azure: Centralized servers run by corporations.
Why it matters: GPUnet canât be shut down, censored, or monopolized.
⸝
4. Incentives & Ownership
⢠GPUnet: Users earn $GPU by participating (validating, providing, building).
⢠AWS / GCP / Azure: You only payâno ownership, no upside.
Why? GPUnet aligns economic incentives with usage.
⸝
5. Innovation Layer
⢠GPUnet: Enables creation of Subnets â micro-economies of GPU-powered tools (bots, services, apps).
⢠AWS / GCP / Azure: You deploy, but donât earn or get discovered unless you scale independently.
Why? GPUnet gives discoverability + built-in token economy.
⸝
6. AI-Native Design
⢠GPUnet: Custom L1 chain (GANChain) designed for compute coordination and AI agent ecosystems.
⢠AWS / GCP / Azure: General-purpose cloud infrastructure, not optimized for decentralized agentic AI.

If you want speed, cost-efficiency, ownership, and web3-native scaleâGPUnet is your compute layer.
Big clouds are built for enterprises. GPUnet is built for creators, devs, and communities.
