Review on Golem by Jeff Shaw
building the first blockchain supercomputer
Golem aims to be the global super computer that allows a network of computers be utilized and rewarded for the resources they contribute to the network through blockchain technology. The network of computer resources can be deployed for a wide range of tasks for simple to complex tasks that a traditional data center would accomplish. The project has promise, and recommend trying it out.
