What Infstones founder and CEO has to say
“Demand for our infrastructure platform service has been very strong. InfStones has been profitable from day one.”- Zhenwu Shi, founder and CEO of Infstones.
Emphasising Web3 application, he said, “As Web3 technology and applications grow, data structure and architecture will become more and more decentralised. Web3 applications are not intuitively easy to use or develop, so the Web3 ecosystem requires an AWS-like layer solution to increase the speed and growth of Web3 adoption.”
Shi also talked about decentralised blockchain networks. “A lot of blockchains want to become more decentralised, which requires more people to launch a node in their ecosystem. But those people don’t have a technology background and don’t know how to maintain those nodes. Using our product, they can very easily launch and participate in the blockchain network,” said Shi.
What the investors have to say-
“Just as AWS has made it easy for companies to deploy applications across servers, storage, and databases, InfStones is making it simple to deploy nodes, APIs, and other services. Their platform helps reduce the barriers to entry for new companies that are looking to incorporate blockchain technology into their stack.” – Dragonfly Capital Partner Tom Schmidt said in a press release.
