Interview with Titan Network CEO: Inside Titan’s Breakout Growth and Vision for Web3 Infrastructure

Introduction (Chinese Version)
In an exclusive interview with Titan Network CEO Neo Ge, the Titan Chinese Community sat down for a deep-dive conversation covering the project’s core strengths, ecosystem evolution, go-to-market strategy, funding milestones, and technical vision. This candid Q&A offers an official, in-depth look at how Titan is not only scaling rapidly — but also laying the foundation to become a leading decentralized cloud platform in emerging markets.

Interview Summary:
With more than 670,000 registered nodes and 96,000 daily active devices across 146 countries, Titan has quietly built one of the largest real-world DePIN networks globally. Now in its fourth testnet phase, Titan is focused on bandwidth monetization — a crucial step toward real utility and revenue generation. The team plans to onboard 100+ enterprise clients within a year of mainnet launch, targeting rapid expansion in emerging markets where decentralized infrastructure can deliver real competitive advantages. The numbers speak to momentum: monthly recurring revenue (MRR) has already topped $100,000, with all testnet earnings reinvested into development, infrastructure, and ecosystem growth. Titan’s long-term vision is bold: to become a full-stack decentralized cloud platform offering not just bandwidth, but also compute, storage, GPU, IP, and TEE resources. It’s a comprehensive approach designed to rival — and ultimately complement — traditional cloud services. On the funding front, the project’s Series A round is progressing smoothly. Funds will support the mainnet launch, token generation event (TGE), listings, marketing, and broader go-to-market execution. From a technical standpoint, Titan is built on Cosmos SDK and designed for modular upgrades. With future demand for throughput in mind, the team plans to evolve into an ultra-high-performance public chain, capable of scaling with the ecosystem’s growing needs.

The following is the full text of this interview.

Competitive Positioning and Core Team
Chinese Community: Hello Neo! At present, Titan operates in a fiercely competitive DePIN landscape. What makes Titan uniquely positioned to lead, and where do you see its strongest advantages?
Neo (CEO): Great question — and yes, competition is intense, but I believe Titan has a clear edge in 5 key areas.
First, we support a full range of hardware. Titan isn’t limited to high-end infrastructure — we aggregate resources from everyday devices like idle home computers, routers, mobile phones, and even enterprise servers. Through the Titan Protocol, we turn these into standardized, on-demand cloud services. This helps solve the core inefficiencies of traditional cloud systems, which are often expensive, centralized, and underutilized.Second, our platform supports a wide spectrum of digital resources, not just compute or storage. For example, in decentralized cloud storage, about 80% of cost comes from bandwidth — something many DePIN projects overlook. Titan is designed to support bandwidth, storage, compute, GPU, and even IP and TEE resources. This one-stop resource model allows us to enable Web3 features like data sovereignty and data freedom, while accelerating next-gen internet development.Third, our global network of devices is a huge advantage. We’ve registered over 670,000 independent nodes, with around 96,000 daily active nodes across 146 countries. That scale gives us unmatched reach and resilience in the DePIN space.Fourth, we’ve already proven business viability. We’re currently in the testnet phase and already ranked among the top 10 DePIN projects. Our monthly recurring revenue (MRR) has surpassed $100,000, and we’ve helped global clients like TikTok, Tencent, iQIYI, and Lenovo cut bandwidth costs by as much as 78.5%. So we’re not just building tech — we’re solving real-world problems.Finally, Titan is easy to join. With our “Install-to-Earn” model, anyone can participate — even with ultra-lightweight node devices. That lowers the barrier for entry, helps us scale quickly, and creates powerful network effects.
Titan Network Chinese Community: Can you share a bit about the background of Titan’s core team and what makes the team stand out in the blockchain space?
Neo (CEO): Of course. One of Titan’s biggest strengths is our team. We’ve brought together talent from some of the world’s most respected tech and blockchain companies — including Alibaba, Tencent, Huawei, Coinbase, Ledger, and Protocol Labs. This gives us a solid foundation in distributed systems, cloud computing, and blockchain infrastructure.
Let me introduce a few of our core members:Myself, Neo Ge — I’m the co-founder and CEO. Before Titan, I co-founded IPFS Main and led growth for the GLIF Protocol in Asia-Pacific. My background is mainly in distributed storage and blockchain ecosystems.Morpheus Tang, our COO — He previously served as Operations Director at Tencent Lightspeed and has over 20 years of experience in R&D. He was also CTO and co-founder of New Web Group.Konstantin Tkachuk, our CSO — He was Head of Entrepreneurial Operations at Protocol Labs, where he worked with more than 100 Web3 startups and built a strong network of strategic partnerships.Logan Lin, our CTO — Logan brings deep expertise in distributed technology, having worked as a Senior Dev Manager at Huawei and as CTO of a public gaming company. He’s been closely involved in optimizing Filecoin protocol performance.

Beyond the core team, we’re also fortunate to have a world-class advisory board, including global fintech and blockchain leaders like Professor David Lee and Mr. Chia Hock Lai — both highly regarded in Singapore and internationally. They’re not just advisors; they’ve personally invested in Titan, which speaks volumes about their belief in our long-term vision.We’ve also been recognized by some major institutions. In early 2022, Protocol Labs awarded us a $1M grant, a strong endorsement of our innovation and ecosystem potential. In 2024, we were selected as one of the top 20 projects from over 2,000 applicants in a globally recognized incubator program and invited to a U.S.-based bootcamp. That same year, we closed our seed round, led by Arrington Capital, a top-tier blockchain VC in North America.More recently, Titan was highlighted in a 2024 Messari report as one of the top 10 global DePIN projects by node count, and we’re now on track to enter the top 10 by monthly revenue as well.

Product Status and Ecosystem Growth
Titan Network Chinese Community: We understand that Titan is currently focused on bandwidth monetization during its testing phases. Are there plans to expand into other resource types as well? If so, what directions are you looking at?
Neo (CEO): You’re absolutely right — our current testing phase, the fourth one, is focused on bandwidth monetization. But that’s just the beginning. Once the mainnet goes live, one of our top priorities is to scale our enterprise user base globally. We’re aiming to onboard over 100 enterprise clients within the first year, especially in emerging markets, where we see strong demand and growth potential.Looking ahead, we definitely plan to expand into additional resource monetization channels. Beyond bandwidth, we’re already piloting compute, storage, IP, GPU, and TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) resources. These have shown promising results in smaller use cases. The key challenge now is identifying consistent, large-scale demand that aligns with those resource types — because matching the right infrastructure with market needs is where real adoption happens.In the short term, one major focus is Titan Storage. We’ve aggregated a massive amount of hot storage across our network, and we’re working to enhance our multi-point download and upload functionality. The goal is to deliver a decentralized storage experience with local network-level speed — something that would be a game-changer for data-heavy applications.Combine that with our support for data sovereignty and freedom, and we’re confident we can attract significant attention from the Web3 space, especially as decentralized storage gains traction. Monetizing that demand is our next big step.Ultimately, Titan is moving toward becoming a comprehensive decentralized cloud platform — not just a bandwidth layer. Our long-term vision is to offer a full suite of decentralized web services and become the go-to infrastructure provider in the next era of the internet. For a deeper dive into what’s ahead, we’ll be sharing more details in our upcoming white paper.

Titan Network Chinese Community: We’ve heard that Titan’s monthly recurring revenue (MRR) recently surpassed $80,000. What’s the latest update, and how does the team plan to use that revenue going forward?
Neo (CEO): The number has actually gone up — we’ve now exceeded $100,000 in MRR, which is a great milestone, especially while still in the testing phase. For now, 100% of that revenue is being reinvested directly into the project’s growth and development. That includes everything from mainnet preparation and the Token Generation Event (TGE) to upcoming exchange listings and strategic token repurchases.Looking ahead, we’ll continue allocating MRR toward key areas like R&D, ecosystem expansion, community incentives, operations, and global marketing.
Titan Network Chinese Community: Is Titan currently offering any official hardware for sale?
Neo (CEO): No — Titan doesn’t sell any official hardware. We want to make sure our community has clear and open access to everything they need — so all information about how to participate, including the software and recommended hardware specs, is available for free on our official website.If you come across third-party services or hardware being sold under the Titan name, just know that these are not officially associated with us. We encourage users to always refer to our official channels to ensure they’re getting accurate and up-to-date information.

Market Expansion and Global Strategy
Titan Network Chinese Community: Titan started with a strong presence in the Asia-Pacific region. As an international project, are there plans to expand globally? What does your market expansion strategy look like?
Neo (CEO): Absolutely — global expansion is a key part of our roadmap. While the Asia-Pacific region has been an important starting point, Titan has already conducted tests in over 100 countries, and we’ve activated more than 670,000 nodes worldwide. So our footprint is already quite broad.When it comes to bandwidth monetization, we’re currently active in six countries, mainly due to specific customer demand. But that number will definitely grow as adoption increases — we’re already seeing strong interest from markets with high video and data usage.Our focus now is to build on our early mover advantage, strengthen our foundation, and continue expanding into regions where decentralized infrastructure can deliver real value. It’s all about scaling steadily and strategically.
Titan Network Chinese Community: How do you see the DePIN space evolving in the future? And how is Titan positioning itself to grow with that trend?
Neo (CEO): We believe the DePIN sector is heading toward mass adoption and real-world utility. Over time, we’ll see a shift from isolated resource sharing to full-spectrum decentralized infrastructure — supporting compute, storage, bandwidth, and more. The scale could grow a thousandfold, especially as more users demand data sovereignty and access to a more open, user-driven internet.As for Titan, our goal is to become the backbone of that transition. We’re building a global, distributed resource network that’s open, efficient, and secure — designed to serve both the Web3 ecosystem and traditional industries.To get there, we’re focusing on three key areas:Technology Innovation — we’re continually improving our performance, expanding the types of resources we support, and staying ahead of market needs.Ecosystem Growth — we’re actively building a community of developers, users, and partners to co-create a thriving DePIN ecosystem.Compliance and Sustainability — we’re committed to operating within legal frameworks and ensuring the long-term health and trustworthiness of the Titan network.

Funding and Institutional Support
Titan Network Chinese Community: Titan’s seed round was led by Arrington Capital. Can you tell us more about the firm and what led them to invest in Titan?
Neo (CEO): Arrington Capital is a highly respected U.S.-based venture capital firm founded in 2017 by Michael Arrington, who also founded TechCrunch. They specialize in crypto and blockchain investments, and have backed over 200 startups, including notable names like ether.fi, Sui, and zkLink. Their portfolio reflects deep involvement in early-stage Web3 innovation.When it came to Titan, what stood out to them was our clear mission, strong vision, and long-term focus on the DePIN space. They saw potential not just in our technology, but in how we’re building a real, scalable solution for decentralized infrastructure. Their investment is a strong vote of confidence in our ability to execute and lead in this rapidly growing space.
Titan Network Chinese Community:
Besides financial investment, what kind of support is Titan receiving from Arrington Capital? Are they involved in strategic or promotional aspects as well?
Neo (CEO): Arrington Capital’s involvement goes well beyond funding. They’ve been a valuable strategic partner to us on multiple fronts. First, they offer strategic guidance, drawing from their deep experience in the blockchain space to help us make informed, long-term decisions. Second, they’re helping us tap into a broader network — connecting us with key industry players, including other investment firms, potential partners, enterprise clients, exchanges, and more. That kind of access is critical for scaling effectively.And finally, they support us on the branding and marketing side. Arrington Capital has strong visibility and reputation in the industry, and they’ve been instrumental in helping raise Titan’s profile globally.
Titan Network Chinese Community: How is Titan’s Series A funding round going? And how do you plan to make the most of the capital raised to strengthen Titan’s position and growth?
Neo (CEO): The Series A round is progressing very smoothly, even more so than our previous round. We’re seeing strong interest, which reflects growing confidence in what we’re building. As for how we’ll use the funds — our focus is on scaling in a strategic and sustainable way. The capital will go toward launching the mainnet, executing the Token Generation Event (TGE), and supporting exchange listings and market-making efforts.Beyond that, we’re investing in resource sales infrastructure, marketing, operations, and ecosystem growth — everything we need to increase Titan’s value, expand our reach, and deliver on our long-term vision.

Technical Architecture and Security
Titan Network Chinese Community: As a public chain, how does Titan plan to balance high throughput with decentralization? Can you walk us through the architecture, consensus mechanism, and how the network ensures both security and scalability?
Neo (CEO): Great question — and it’s something we think about constantly. Our goal is to evolve Titan into an ultra-high-performance public chain, and we’re taking a phased approach to get there. Right now, the Titan blockchain is built on Cosmos, which offers a solid foundation for our current throughput needs. But as we continue to onboard more users and devices, and the demand on the network grows, we know that higher TPS (transactions per second) will be critical.That’s why, in the future, Titan DAO will have the flexibility to upgrade the core blockchain layer — for example, by moving to a DAG-based block synchronization mechanism if needed, to replace the current Cosmos sync method. This kind of modular upgrade path gives us a lot of long-term scalability.In the meantime, we’re focusing on smart contract efficiency to meet the ecosystem’s on-chain data requirements. Using smart contracts allows us to manage workloads more flexibly, and also makes it easier to migrate to a higher-throughput base layer when the time comes. We also pay close attention to what kind of data actually needs to be on-chain. The strategy is to keep only essential data on-chain, minimizing storage use and reducing TPS pressure. This helps us maintain both network performance and security without compromising decentralization. So in short: we’re building for today while planning for tomorrow, with scalability, security, and upgradeability all in mind.
