Golem is the first truly decentralized supercomputer, creating a global market for
computing power. Combined with flexible tools to aid developers in securely
distributing and monetizing their software, Golem altogether changes the way
compute tasks are organized and executed. By powering decentralized microservices
and asynchronous task execution, Golem is set to become a key building block for
future Internet service providers and software development. And, by substantially
lowering the price of computations, complex applications such as CGI rendering,
scientific calculation, and machine learning become more accessible to everyone.
