Recently, policies related to the Metaverse and Web3.0 in the Asia-Pacific region have been launched frequently, and various activities have been held one after another, which are full of highlights. Following Singapore and Hong Kong, on February 23, during the 2023 Huawei Cloud Asia Pacific Partner Leadership Summit in Bali, Indonesia, Huawei Cloud took the lead in launching the Metaverse & Web3.0 Alliance, and also showcased a number of heavyweight alliance partners, including BlockChain Solutions, Deepbrain Chain, Polygon, Morpheus Labs, etc. Huawei Cloud has joined the game and launched this alliance at such a high level. Its strategic considerations are self-evident. We can also use the perspective of Huawei Cloud's strategic layout to re-examine the two long-term outlets of the Metaverse and Web3.0 in the future...

01 What does the Metaverse & Web3.0 Alliance initiated by Huawei bring?

As the world's top high-tech company, relevant information shows that Huawei Cloud's global market share has increased rapidly in recent years, and it has become the world's leading cloud service brand. It is committed to using cloud native, AI and big data to help distribute in 29 available countries around the world. A large number of governments and enterprises in more than 170 countries and regions in the region are undergoing digital transformation, serving 730 million monthly active end customers, and releasing digital productivity together with customers and partners. Huawei's 2023 Huawei Cloud Asia-Pacific Partner Leadership Summit in Bali, Indonesia is only open to invitees, mainly from more than 100 partners and major customers from the Asia-Pacific region, including China Telecom, China Mobile, China Unicom, etc. Giants and several alliance partners of Metaverse & Web3.0 mentioned above. Among them, the more well-known in the encryption industry are the AI ​​computing power platform Deepbrain Chain based on the blockchain chain and the Ethereum Layer2 aggregation solution infrastructure Polygon.

So what does the Metaverse & Web3.0 Alliance launched by Huawei bring? The author summarizes the following points: 1. Strategic significance to Huawei itself. For Huawei itself, Metaverse & Web3.0 are important components of the next generation Internet, and the world’s leading technology “majors” are vying to deploy it. Huawei is no exception. Riding on the hot "east wind" of the Metaverse and Web3.0 themes in the Asia-Pacific region, it has in-depth exchanges and cooperation with partners in related fields to provide users with diversified and more professional Web3.0 infrastructure and solutions. It is also for the next One of the strategic key layouts to lay a solid foundation for a generation of technological waves. 2. Significance to other alliance members For members of the Metaverse & Web3.0 Alliance, it is a special " "Honor", this is not only affirmation and recognition from Huawei, but also allows it to connect its extensive cloud service users through Huawei Cloud, while sharing the rapidly growing open cloud market. Simply put, it brings high-value and accurate display to alliance members, and interested parties can learn more information and form business contacts with alliance members accordingly. 3. How is it different from the cooperation with Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud announced by other projects? In fact, in the encryption industry, project parties often take the initiative to announce business cooperation with Microsoft and Google. However, some Kol also bluntly pointed out that many similar "cooperations" are actually business cooperation with some projects as customers of Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, and There is nothing to “mark”. The Metaverse & Web3.0 Alliance is an olive branch proactively offered by Huawei Cloud, which represents closer cooperation and greater support for alliance members. In short, it has higher gold content.

02  DeepBrain Chain on the cusp of the trend

With the entry and deployment of "big manufacturers" such as Huawei, Metaverse and Web3.0 have also reached the initial stage of gradually maturing from concept to the implementation of more and more reliable infrastructure and rich applications. In fact, from the list of Huawei Cloud alliance members, we can see some hot topics that Huawei Cloud values, such as the public chain expansion track Polygon, and the current hottest AI track project in Web3.0, Deepbrain Chain. Everyone knows enough about the public chain and mainstream project Polygon, but the AI ​​track was silent for a while after 2018 until it became popular with ChatGPT this year. As one of the earliest AI projects, Deepbrain Chain may not be understood by some newcomers. . According to the official social media information of Deepbrain Chain, Deepbrain Chain has been developing silently for several years. At present, it seems that Deepbrain Chain has basically realized the roadmap planned that year. Deepbrain Chain is positioned as a "blockchain-driven artificial intelligence (AI) computing platform" and its goal is to become a "cloud computing platform in the artificial intelligence industry."

The four major features displayed on the Deepbrain Chain official website

The Deepbrain Chain official website showcases its four major features: “low cost, security, privacy protection, and elastic computing”, which is also the fundamental reason why Deepbrain Chain stands out among many computing power platforms.

The Deepbrain Chain computing platform based on blockchain makes full use of the advantages of distributed networks, integrates GPU computing resources distributed around the world, and provides artificial intelligence companies and developers with a "disintermediation" model. While saving a lot of expenses, it can also take into account security protection through a strong distributed network, and achieve physical isolation between data providers and data training parties through smart contracts to meet the privacy protection needs of data providers. At the same time, the computing power platform based on Deepbrain Chain can achieve elastic computing capabilities to meet the needs of users for free adjustment during peaks and troughs.

At present, there are only a few cutting-edge research teams in blockchain technology and artificial intelligence worldwide. The perfect combination of artificial intelligence and blockchain requires a top-notch team of scientists. The background of Deepbrain Chain’s technical team is also very impressive. , according to public information, his team ranked first in the corporate world in the Harbin Institute of Technology AI Evaluation SMP2017 Chinese Human-Computer Dialogue Evaluation, and more than 30 domestic top artificial intelligence teams participated.

At the end of 2018, Deepbrain Chain's high-performance computing network was launched. Since then, it has been improving the ease of use of the computing network and promoting commercialization in blockchain, artificial intelligence, cloud games, visual rendering, biopharmaceuticals, and semiconductor simulation. Various scenarios such as simulation are widely used, providing cost-effective GPU computing power to many enterprises. At the end of May 2021, the Deepbrain Chain mainnet developed based on Polkadot Substrate was launched. Through the blockchain, Deepbrain Chain integrates GPU computing resources distributed around the world and provides distributed and decentralized services in accordance with the needs of artificial intelligence companies. , dynamic services to help artificial intelligence companies reduce computing power costs, ensure data security and privacy protection, and elastic computing capabilities. It is reported that since the Deepbrain Chain mainnet was launched, the project has been launched in South Korea, Singapore, Vietnam, the United States and other countries. It can be said that it is one of the few blockchain projects that was born in China and successfully internationalized. With the explosion of artificial intelligence, the GPU computing power usage and users of Deepbrain Chain network have grown rapidly. Multiple high-performance GPU cloud platforms around the world have been deployed based on the Deepbrain Chain network, serving hundreds of companies and tens of thousands of AI developer groups in artificial intelligence, cloud games, Internet cafes and other businesses.

Through the Deepbrain Chain data website, we can see that it currently has 2,000 GPU servers running around the world and providing decentralized GPU computing capabilities. Multiple high-performance GPU cloud platforms around the world have been deployed based on the Deepbrain Chain network, serving hundreds of companies and tens of thousands of AI developer groups in artificial intelligence, cloud games, Internet cafes and other businesses.

Although the data of Deepbrain Chain's main services are not very impressive compared to the Web2 platform, it is already a leader compared to its peers in the early stages of development of the AI ​​track, most of which are still in the "concept" stage or have stagnated in development.

On the social media of Deepbrain Chain official and founder He Yong, we can see that Deepbrain Chain has established communities in many countries, especially in South Korea, Vietnam, India and other countries in Southeast Asia. The communities are particularly active, and have established partnerships with many governments and enterprises. Extensive cooperation has also been carried out. It has to be said that Deepbrain Chain has been working hard to complete its implementation tasks in recent years. Innovation is not easy, but persistence is the most important thing.

Recently, CITIC Securities Research Institute released a research article stating: "The demand for GPUs in AI, data centers, smart cars, etc. has increased significantly, especially the new round of AI represented by ChatGPT, which has a much greater demand for computing power than before."

Data shows that the global high-performance GPU market is growing rapidly. The global GPU market value in 2020 is US$25.41 billion. Some professional institutions predict that the global GPU market value will reach US$185.31 billion by 2027, with an average annual growth rate of 32.82%.

As the global high-performance GPU market is growing rapidly, Deepbrain Chain, which is on the cusp of the trend, has undoubtedly ushered in a good opportunity for development.

03 Summary

The Metaverse and Web3.0 Alliance, led by Huawei, has brought very positive significance to alliance members and the industry. The two major trends of Metaverse and Web3.0 seem to be one step closer to us.

We are still in the very early stages of Web3.0, especially the Web3.0 AI track, and projects like Deepbrain Chain have accumulated nearly five years of experience and are ahead of many Web3.0 AI platforms. Especially with the development of generative AI such as ChatGpt and the massive demand for computing power of large model training teams, DeepbrainChain, an AI computing power network with unlimited expansion, will be pushed to the center of the stage.

We will wait and see what the future holds.
