The Post-Cloud Endgame

And What Makes DePIN Scale Instead.

The narrative that we need more data centers is a lie.

The world is not suffering from a shortage of computing power. It is suffering from a massive inefficiency of distribution. The raw power needed to run the Metaverse, AI, and the next generation of AAA gaming already exists. It’s just sitting turned off in people’s homes.

YOM is not building a better data center. We are making the data center obsolete.

The Sleeping Giant: 75% Latent Capacity

At any given second, 50% to 75% of the world’s consumer GPU power sits idle.

Millions of RTX 3090s, 4080s, and high-end gaming rigs are currently collecting dust or running browser tabs. This is the single largest reservoir of computing power on the planet—dwarfing the capacity of Amazon, Google, and Microsoft combined.

Centralized cloud providers treat this hardware as non-existent. We treat it as the supply side.

By activating this dormant hardware, we don't just "add" capacity; we unlock a resource that is already manufactured, distributed, and paid for.

The Economic Kill-Shot: Zero-CapEx Scaling

The flaw in the centralized model is simple: To scale, they must spend.

For AWS or Nvidia to double their capacity, they must pour billions of dollars into concrete, silicon, land, and cooling. This creates a hard floor on their pricing. They cannot charge less than $2.00/hour because they have a mortgage to pay on their infrastructure.

YOM has Zero CapEx.

We do not buy hardware. We do not build warehouses. We orchestrate a protocol.

• The AWS Model: Buy 10,000 GPUs Charge high fees to recoup investment.

• The YOM Model: Connect 10,000 existing GPUs Slash fees to undercut the market.

This structural advantage allows us to offer prices that are mathematically impossible for centralized providers to match. We push the cost from $2.00 down to <$0.10 per hour. This isn't a discount; it's a market correction.

Defeating the Speed of Light

Centralized cloud is fighting a losing battle against physics.

You cannot optimize the speed of light. If a server is 1,000km away, latency is unavoidable. No amount of fiber optic cable can fix the fact that the data center is simply too far away.

YOM solves latency by ignoring geography.

By turning every gamer’s PC into a potential edge node, we move the "cloud" into the user's neighborhood.

• Centralized: Signal travels cross-country (High Ping).

• DePIN: Signal travels down the street (Sub-30ms Ping).

We achieve "Local Console" performance not through magic, but through proximity.

The Shift is Inevitable

We are witnessing the transition from Rent-Seeking Monopolies to Participatory Networks.

• Old World: You pay a corporation to access a computer miles away. The corporation keeps the profit; the environment bears the cost of new manufacturing.

• New World (DePIN): You pay a peer for access to a computer nearby. The community keeps the profit; the environment is spared the cost of new hardware.

YOM is the infrastructure layer for this transition. We aren't just streaming pixels; we are liquidating the wasted capacity of the global hardware market and turning it into a harvestable, sovereign asset.

The centralized cloud is the bottleneck. YOM is the endgame.
