Secure, sustainable cloud storage and computing.
We wrapped up our 10th global offsite in Milan. The focus this year was simple: ownership.
Real conversations, clear decisions, and a team that cares about the work as much as the outcome.

We also took our usual chaotic group photo. Tradition matters.

Cloud GPU pricing shouldn’t feel like deciphering a mortgage.

We made it simple:
4090: €0.20/hr
5090: €0.40/hr

Full VRAM, no interruptions, no “gotchas.”

“Cheap GPU” isn’t cheap when preemption, egress, and version drift hit. Field guide to renting GPUs without surprises: compute.hivenet.com/post/gpu-ren...

Traditional cloud GPU providers charge enterprise rates for what your gaming PC does idle at night.

Hivenet's Compute uses RTX 4090s because why pay for data centers when there's unused power everywhere?

Centralized cloud providers claim cost efficiency while charging premium prices for basic infrastructure.

Turns out distributed networks actually are cheaper when you're not padding margins for shareholders.

Generative AI isn’t the problem. How we use it is.

Here’s a clear guide for tech leaders on doing AI right — and how Hivenet’s distributed GPUs make it affordable.

GPU prices keep climbing elsewhere. We decided to do the opposite.
4090 at €0.20/hr.
5090 at €0.40/hr.
No gimmicks. No “limited-time” drama. Just fair pricing for serious builders.

DNV: AI data-center power demand could grow 10× by 2030 yet stay <3% of global use by 2040. Small share. Huge growth. Bills don’t care.

Italy’s national AI law entered into force on 10 Oct. First EU country to stack local rules on top of the AI Act. Fewer ‘we’re compliant’ slides ahead.

Vitalik's right: privacy protects decentralization because control over information is power.

AI makes data collection faster. Without privacy safeguards, we're building better tools for surveillance capitalism.

Web3 gets mocked until people realize Web2 isn't working.

Building AI agents that don't require data center-sized compute budgets. @artinLeap is doing it with smaller models on distributed infrastructure.

Sustainable AI isn't an oxymoron if you're not trying to impress venture capitalists.

Ember: EU data-center electricity use → 96 TWh (2024) → 168 TWh (2030) → 236 TWh (2035). ‘Green by design’ has to survive the math. Read more here: ember-energy.org/app/uploads/...

The model is innocent. The plan wasn’t.

GPU rentals fail on capacity, preemption, and egress math—not magic. A short pre-flight saves real money.

Developers keep picking RTX 4090 for real work: 16,384 CUDA cores, 24 GB VRAM, ~1.0 TB/s—perfect for 7B–13B LLMs without the data-center price tag. Learn why: compute.hivenet.com/post/why-mor...

What if AI didn’t need giant data centers?

That’s what CUPSELI, our new project with Inria, is testing—running real AI workloads on distributed resources.

Memory reality: A100 = 40/80 GB HBM2e. 4090 = 24 GB GDDR6X. Plenty for 7B–13B and most RAG setups. When budgets are real, people choose what ships. Read: compute.hivenet.com/post/why-mor....

Well. @Anthropic CEO called out @NVIDIA ’s leadership last month, calling a statement ‘the most outrageous lie.’ The flashpoint? Ethics vs speed & profit. Race to the bottom? To the top? Who knows. economictimes.indiatimes.com/magazines/pa...
