CUDOS – The Global Compute Network

Our vision is to

Enable more efficient use of the world’s computing resources.

Our mission is to

Empower people and organisations to earn by contributing to the world’s computing and making it cheaper, more sustainable and more accessible. Founded in 2017 by serial tech entrepreneur Matt Hawkins, Cudo’s highly experienced team of entrepreneurs, engineers, data scientists and strategists, are joined by world-class advisors including the Ex-President of Sony Playstation, Chris Deering and the Director of Blockchain at AMD, Jörg Roskowetz with the mission to:‘Make Better Use of the World’s Computing Power.’

Value Proposition

Smart Contracts & dApps

Deploy scalable smart contracts in Rust or Solidity and enable faster and more efficient DeFi and dApps

Scalable decentralised blockchain compute (Bridges)

Scale out Layer 2 compute

Scaleout decentralised cloud

Provision virtually any WASM, container or virtual machine workload to one of the worlds largest distributed networks with over 300,000 users

Lower Cost, Faster Transactions

The Cudos Network completes transactions in seconds, with low cost per transaction to enable scalable applications.

Create NFT’s & Assets

Deploy NFT’s and digitise your assets or build your own tokens.

Oracles

Connect to Oracles for data services on/off-chain or deploy your own data services to the Cudos Network and all bridged blockchains.

The Applications of Compute

Cloud computing already uses around 20 million servers, and this number is rapidly increasing. By adding to the network the billions of electronic devices that are spread around the world, distributed computing is the bridge to the mass-adoption of this revolutionary technology.

Use cases include:

Layer 2 oracle

Defi

Scientific research

Data Analytics

Artificial Intelligence

Video Rendering

CUDOS Network

Hardware encrypted validator network

Integrated smart contracts for blockchains

Layer 2 oracle compute network

CUDOS Validators

BUY or RUN an approved CUDOS validator server
STAKE 2 million CUDOS and stake for compute workloads
EARN high staking rewards + passive income from blockchain & compute jobs

BECOME A VALIDATOR

Benefits of Decentralisation

Governance

Become a CUDOS citizen and be part of the next web3 era. Provide your opinion on updates and changes to the network.

Voting

Vote on proposals to apply changes to the network and grants for projects to be built on CUDOS.

Staking

Support the network by staking tokens or become a validator and receive rewards for your contribution.

Wallet

Store your CUDOS assets on the network or with the many wallet partners.

Multi-Chain

Supporting multiple chains including Ethereum, Polkadot and many more in the future.

Develop

Build your own dapps and integrate smart contracts on the decentralised CUDOS Web3 network.

Testimonials

"The pace and progress of Cudo is incredible and we are impressed by Cudo's team and model. As a cloud operator providing HPC services we were pleased to deploy a large new infrastructure investment in support of load from the Cudo compute environment. As part of this we rapidly deployed Cudo customised software and have found the development and support team to be knowledgeable and responsive."

Andy Long, Strategy Advisor Hydro66

"With the upcoming launch of Ultra, we selected Cudo as our technology partner for our distributed computing application, integrated into our gaming platform, it provides gamers Worldwide with a way to earn additional UOS that can be redeemed and used within the Ultra ecosystem, for purchasing games, virtual items, gaming hardware, ... Cudo understood from day 1, that adding further value to our network of gamers is intrinsically important to Ultra's success and they have always led development with that in mind..."

Nicolas Gilot, CEO Ultra

“We immediately saw the value Cudo’s platform would bring to our network of investors, eager to find new and innovative ways of generating revenue. Cudo has positioned themselves to disrupt the status quo, at the same time as connecting traditional and blockchain consumers through a single, scalable and distributed platform…”
