Almost every aspect of our life has been infiltrated by technology. It has made our life comfortable, faster, active and dynamic, and all this has become possible because of the development of various softwares, applications, computer programs and the like.
Take an example of our smart phone. We would not find it attractive, if there were no apps. However, for developing these apps and softwares, we need the services of computer programmers or software developers. According to a report from VisionMobile, 4.5 million developers would be required by 2020 to contribute to app development. Thus it is obvious that we need abundance of skilled resources and huge capital for app development.
Another thing is that to run these computer programs, there is a global need of a high computing power utilization. The processing resources of all the personal computing devices, notepads, desktops, laptops, etc are going to waste by not being used most of the time.
With Crowd Machine, a solution to both these issues can be found!
Crowd machine is a decentralized and sophisticated technology, consisting of:
- Crowd Computer,
- Crowd App Studio, and
- Crowd Share.
Crowd Machine has been in development for the last 5 years. It aims to enable non-developers or non-technical population with no coding and programming knowledge to create decentralized apps on the decentralized cloud without writing the code, thus diminishing the need to be dependent on the developers or pay to get the desired technology. Further, it would harness or bring into use the processing resources of computational devices in exchange for reward.
Crowd Computer
Crowd computer is a decentralized, peer-to-peer network that executes decentralized apps and blockchain smart contracts using shared computing power. Crowd Computer aims to replace the public cloud service providers such as Amazon Web Services and Azure.
As we know that it requires capital to develop and maintain servers, especially in large corporations, Crowd Computer would utilize the unused computational resources of the internet users, and the device owners who allow their devices to perform these actions get incentives in the form of Crowd Machine Compute Tokens, or CMCT; thus it is a great way to monetize one’s computational power that is otherwise not being used. All the devices in the Crowd Machine network, such as laptops, desktops, mobile phones or servers can be seen as a global decentralized processor.
Crowd App Studio
Crowd Machine aims to enable the people with no programming background or skills to develop blockchain-based and traditional applications through Crowd App Studio and deploy them to the Crowd Computer. The app creation process, is thus automated and can be implemented at 45 times faster speed as compared to the current centralized app development approaches.
There are a variety of built-in designs and features in the Crowd App Studio that facilitates the app creation process to meet the user’s needs.
To summarize, Crowd App Studio, with a simple drag-and-drop interface can be used to develop an app while alleviating the need to understand computer languages and reducing the amount of effort required in app creation.
The image below shows the graphical representation of app developing by a 3-step decentralized model of Crowd Machine and the 8-steps centralized models.
Crowd Share
Crowd Share is a source repository similar to GitHub where the Crowd Machine content can be stored and downloaded and used free of cost by the Crowd Machine community. Thus, it minimizes the need to create some components of an app from scratch.
It also enables the developers to commercialize and monetize their source code in an open marketplace.
Crowd Machine Compute Tokens - CMCT
CMCT is an ERC20 token with a supply for 2 billion tokens, and you can use these tokens in Crowd Machine ecosystem to purchase the source code or an application. App owners also need these tokens to be able to host their apps on Crowd Computer.
Get Rewards in CMCT
Crowd Machine rewards the app creator in CMCT for contributing their source code to the Crowd Share repository. The coder is compensated each time the source code is used on Crowd Computer. Thus, the community app developers, coders and device owners are rewarded in CMCT each time their content is executed or their computing resources are utilized in the Crowd Machine ecosystem.

More about Crowd Machine
This is my entry for the contest hosted by @originalworks.
crowd2018
This a good, well written post.
Thanks a lot! Glad you liked it @dreamryder007
I've read few posts about Crowd Machine and yours surely is one of the better ones out there.
Im not sure if I understood it right. Correct me please if Im wrong.
Crowd Machine will provide developers with some sort of "templates" that can help create decentralized apps on blockchain?
Potential to use this tool in the future looks very promissing.
I know that you're taking part of @originalworks contest. Good luck to you :)
Obviously UPVOTED ! :)
Cheers, Piotr
Thanks a lot Piotr :) I am really glad you liked this post. It was my first attempt to write a blockchain-related post.
Crowd Machine will enable both developers and non-developers (developers are already able, mostly :) ) to create apps using the already available source codes (you can say templates). The developers can also share their codes on Crowd Share, which we can use. And yes, it's really promising :) Let's see.
Thank you for your kind reply. I really appreciate.
If it was your first attempt that you did great job.
I really found your post about Crowd Machine very informative and this project is still blowing my mind. I've read number of posts related to that crypto and Im just wondering how possibly would it affect job market. Wont be there thousands developers and programmers losing their jobs ?
Or is demand huge enough to provide jobs for all those people. What do you think?
Are you personally a programmer/developer ? And did you try by any chance their beta version? I tried to register myself here: s://www.crowdmachine.com/beta-program/
But this program is temporaty closed and in order to receive news about future beta programs I need to subscribe. The problem I faced is that each time whenever I try to do that their website is crashing with some errors being displayed.
You mind checking if you have similar problem?
Keep up with good content. Will be following you closely. Hope to read more interesting posts about blockchain technology projects :) or crypto in general.
Cheers,
Piotr
Hi Piotr,
Yes, it was my first attempt and I got 10th prize :)
I successfully registered on this site, and got confirmation email as well. The message I got it is : http://prntscr.com/j1ocpc
I think, if successfully implemented and adopted massively, then it can affect the job market; but big companies may still need the developers... as non-experts cannot replace experts. This is my own opinion.
I am not a developer, but I love technology, and love to learn. I am clinical psychologist.
yeah! already in top10? :) great ob Mona
An interesting concept, very well written and detailed @monajam
Every word of your mind, you wrote very well. Hopefully you'll be giving us a good post like this.
I would like to say you keep it up and well done.
Great insight, no idea of Crowd machine before. Quite informative. Block chain technology truly is superb.
This reminds me of another awesome tech that is coming out... hopefully!

I just checked @originalworks contest results. Congratz!
I hope you dont mind my comment again, but I have some more questions related to Crowd Machine. I tried very hard to find answers and I read quite a number of posts related to this issue but I failed.
Most of all: what advantage Crowd Machine has over their direct competition (https://dadi.cloud)? DADI is already listed on coinmarketcap.com for quite some time (and available on KuCoin).
I dont know much about DADI. I just found out about this project few hours ago and I would like to hear your view.
You mind telling me how in your opinion CM can affect current market and existing platform?
Will ETH, Cardano, Neo, EOS, Lisk, iota, waves or qtum benefit or is Crowd Machine a threat to them? Hope you can share your view on this issue. I would appreciate a lot.
ps. Im super passionate about crypto and blockchain technology and it seem that we're both sharing this passion. I will be following you closely.
Please continue with great content. Steemit need people like you more than anything else (I mean solid content creators).
Cheers, Piotr
Thanks Piotr,
I am not a crypto person. I just like to invest in few coins, like Eth, btc, steem and btc cash, to make profit through trading. So tat's why, I did not hear about DADI.
What I think is that CM has some cool features, such as Crowd Computer and Crowd Share, so if it comes into practice, it can have effect.
I am in a group called @steemrepair, where we have crypto counselor , and you might be interested to discuss with him. It is on discord.
Hi there. Good morning and thank you for your kind reply
I already noticed that you're not crypto person (I checked your profile a while ago, once we started commenting each others post).
My excitement about Crowd Machine is growing steadily for past few days. More I learn more I like this project. This is one of very few ICO's that seem to really serve some purpose.
Would you perhaps know when another beta testing version will be available? And could you please see if you're capable of adding your email to Crowd Machine subscribtion list? I tried few times and I'm always receiving some errors.
ps.
Are you planning to write for @oryginalworks this weekend? If you do then I wish you good luck. You can always send me a link either to my email: promib.pl@gmail.com or write it in your comment/reply. I would love to read it and support you.
Have a great sunday :)
Cheers, Piotr
I don't know if I would participate in the contest. I will try.
Also, I don't send emails, but if you want to keep in touch, we have a facebook group; you can join that. It is for Steemians. https://www.facebook.com/groups/708882049313408/
Hi Mona
I just did join your group. Thank you for your help and support. I really appreciate.
Im already pleased to meet you.
Also since it's not the first time we're engaging ... what would you say about following each other and trying to support each other too?
Perhaps you could drop me a short message at my email (previous post)
I would love to be able to keep in touch with you
Notification system here sucks. And lack of PM is disturbing
I have daily contests through which I try to support Steemians, and these are simple, fun contests, so if you like, you can participate in them. May be, not all contests would be for you, as there are drawing contests, review, but I think, you would like this one. It's analytical thinking test. I would be glad if you try this. https://steemit.com/contest/@monajam/contest-analytical-skills-four-best-friends-part-1-5-april-2018
