EdgeCloud for Mobile — unleashing AI computing on 3.9 billion Android devices

July 15, 2024 Update: In one of the biggest leaps forward in Theta’s history, the mobile version of the Theta Edge Node for Android devices is scheduled to launch on Sept 25, 2024. For the first time ever, the Theta team has implemented a video object detection AI model (VOD_AI) that runs on consumer grade Android mobile devices, delivering true computation at the edge and enabling unparalleled scalability and reach. VOD_AI is a computer vision technique that uses AI to analyze video frames to identify objects by scanning video frames, looking for potential objects and drawing bounding boxes around them. This process is similar to how the human visual cortex works.

In the example above, VOD_AI can be used to label objects in a video, such as “cup”, “sandwich”, or “fork and dining table”. In the future, each label could include the object’s location in the frame, as well as a timestamp that indicates when the object appeared in the video. VOD_AI can also be used for video object tracking, which involves tracking an object’s position throughout a video by analyzing each frame and drawing a bounding box around it. This technology has significant applications in the media and entertainment industry, particularly for user generated content. Users that run the Edge Node for mobile app will earn TFUEL rewards for sharing their mobile computation power.

Users will also have the option to only run mobile edge jobs when the device is on WiFi and is plugged in and charging, for instance, overnight while asleep. By having a global footprint of thousands of Android devices, effectively means having 24x7 coverage to complete even the largest video object detection jobs. For example, if 30,000 mobile devices around the world join the Theta edge network, and each device is working for 8 hours overnight, this yields 240,000 hours of computation power in a single day. By splicing a source video or a set of video into as much as 14 million segments and parallelizing across these 30k devices, even ultra high resolution, complex and lengthy video can be processed seamlessly and effectively. This is truly groundbreaking computation at the edge.

The Theta team invites you to participate in the pilot launch of Mobile Edge Node beginning in September, and provide us feedback across social channels. In the meantime, we encourage you to download and run the latest version of Edge Node for Windows, Mac and Linux, and join the Theta EdgeCloud community.

Theta EdgeCloud and the 10,000+ active Edge Nodes around the world are the backbone that allows Theta to deliver fast, cost-effective compute work for AI and video applications over a decentralized network.

The goal of EdgeCloud for Mobile is leveraging up to 3.9 Billion active Google Android devices for certain types of AI computation workloads. Android today accounts for 70% of the mobile operating system market share across 190 countries, and provides an ideal platform to evaluate mobile CPU/GPU capabilities.

This also sets up the opportunity to target over 150 million active Android TVs globally that run the AndroidTV operating system from Sony, Sharp, Phillips and many more brands. While the average daily consumption of television today is around 3 hours, this leaves the device available the majority of the time for other types of computation and data sharing, especially as these always connected Smart TVs increase CPU and GPU capabilities over the next decade.

While intensive compute work is generally not feasible on mobile devices today, that is changing quickly. For example, TensorFlow Lite now enables on-device machine learning by allowing developers to run their trained models on mobile, embedded, and IoT devices and computers. It supports platforms such as embedded Linux, Android, iOS, and MCU. In the near future, these devices will be able to process more and more complex computations, and therefore become significantly more valuable as nodes on Theta EdgeCloud. Today’s devices can already run certain types of jobs on the Theta Edge Node, making the 3.9 billion Android devices worldwide a massive potential addition to Theta EdgeCloud. In the future, with the ability to serve GenAI, LLM inference, and text-to-image among other use cases, mobile devices running Edge Nodes can serve an AI market valued at $200 billion today, and projected to be worth more than $1 trillion in 2028.

The opportunity is to shift compute-intensive AI workloads to the edge as the cost of centralized GPU resources skyrocket from all the major cloud service providers, but this remains a challenging technical problem. For example, NVIDIA recently announced a private AI chat bot for desktops running RTX on Windows PCs equipped with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 and 40 Series GPUs with at least 8GB of VRAM. Theta EdgeCloud when fully launched in 2025 aims to seamlessly integrate high-end GPU capability from cloud providers with billions of mobile and smart devices in addition to desktops and laptops into a unified AI infrastructure layer. This opens up a vast market to process on-demand AI workloads optimized for cost, quality of service, privacy and device capabilities.

The Theta engineering team is excited to initially test with Google’s new experimental MediaPipe on device text-to-image generation solution for Android in the pilot launch of mobile Theta Edge node. The team is evaluating text-to-image generation based on text prompts using standard diffusion models as well as customized text-to-image generation based on text prompts using Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) weights. “Creating LoRA weights requires training a foundation model on images of a specific object, person, or style, which enables the model to recognize the new concept and apply it when generating images,” according to Google developer site.

✨Transients in the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (POSS-I) may be associated with nuclear testing and reports of unidentified anomalous phenomena✨ Published: 20 October 2025

Transient star-like objects of unknown origin have been identified in the first Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (POSS-I) conducted prior to the first artificial satellite. We tested speculative hypotheses that some transients are related to nuclear weapons testing or unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) reports. A dataset comprising daily data (11/19/49—4/28/57) regarding identified transients, nuclear testing, and UAP reports was created (n = 2,718 days). Results revealed significant (p = .008) associations between nuclear testing and observed transients, with transients 45% more likely on dates within + /- 1 day of nuclear testing. For days on which at least one transient was identified, significant associations were noted between total number of transients and total number of independent UAP ...

New Human Force
Join this Now! YOU have what it takes!

They are in our solar system, and in our event-stream in this Eternal Now.

Officialdom is clueless.

They think we are going to be at WAR with the Aliens.

Officialdom is very stupid.

Aliens is here. It’s not WAR. It’s Contention.

There is a difference.

Officialdom is clueless, still living in the last Millennium.

Aliens is here.

The Field in which we contend is This Eternal Now.

ALL HUMANS LIVE HERE, and ONLY HERE, in this

ETERNAL NOW.

It’s a Field of potentials, of pending Manifestation, this continuous event-stream of karma in which we have always lived our body’s Life.

This Eternal Now has always been our body’s Field of Contention.

The Aliens is here, in our Eternal Now.

Our common, shared, reality that we all continuously co-create now has Aliens.

It’s getting very complex in here.

Officialdom is clueless. They see the Aliens. They are freaking out. They think you are children, when it is their small minds, trapped in a reality that is only grit, mud, and ‘random chance’ who are childish.

Officialdom is stupid. They will and are reacting badly. As is their way, they are trying to hide shit from you. Silly grit bound minds don’t realize you can see everything from within the Eternal Now. They have yet to grasp that what they perceive as this Matterium, filled with ‘matter’, is but a hardening of our previous (past) internal states of being.

WAR happens in the Matterium.

Contention occurs within this Eternal Now where Consciousness shapes the manifesting event-stream.

YOU know this to be fact. You are a co-creator.

Contention with Aliens is happening in this instant in this Eternal Now.

Officialdom ain’t doing shit. They are still stuck in trying to move matter around to affect unfolding circumstances. That’s redoing the mirror trying to affect the reflection. Dumb fucks….

It’s up to US. To the New Humans. Those of us who live in this Eternal Now. Those of us who see that our body’s Lives (the Chain that cannot be broken) are expressions of the Ontology revealing itself to itself. It’s up to us guys.

We are not an Army. That’s a concept from the past, from before the emergence of the New Humans. We are a Force. A self-organizing collective with leadership resident in each, and every participant.

We are the New Human Force. By the time officialdom starts to speak about the Aliens in near-factual terms, we will already be engaging them in this Eternal Now.

By the time officialdom begins to move matter around (space ships & such) thinking it’s War, we will already be suffering casualties in this Eternal Now. That part is inevitable. It’s how we learn.

By the time officialdom realizes that some shit is going on in places and ways beyond its conception, we will already be pushing our dominance onto our partners in this First Contention, the Aliens. Nage cannot train without Uke.

Just as officialdom is scrambling to research the Ontology, this Eternal Now, and the event-stream, we will be settling terms with our new partners, the Aliens.

Come, join with us. It’s going to be a hellacious Contention.

We ARE the NEW HUMANS!

Together we are the Force that cannot be defeated.

Start YOUR training in this instance of this Eternal NOW.

Consume Neville Goddard videos as though all of human existence depended on YOUR mind and YOUR active, effective, imaginings!

It’s not a question of Mind over Matter as there is only Mind and it cares not for Matter. That’s residue.

The Great Onboarding: US Government Anchors Global Economy into Web3 via Pyth Network

For years, the crypto world speculated that the next major cycle would be driven by institutional adoption, with Wall Street finally legitimizing Bitcoin through vehicles like ETFs. While that prediction has indeed materialized, a recent development signifies a far more profound integration of Web3 into the global economic fabric, moving beyond mere financial products to the very infrastructure of data itself. The U.S. government has taken a monumental step, cementing Web3's role as a foundational layer for modern data distribution. This door, once opened, is poised to remain so indefinitely.

The U.S. Department of Commerce has officially partnered with leading blockchain oracle providers, Pyth Network and Chainlink, to distribute critical official economic data directly on-chain. This initiative marks a historic shift, bringing immutable, transparent, and auditable data from the federal government itself onto decentralized networks. This is not just a technological upgrade; it's a strategic move to enhance data accuracy, transparency, and accessibility for a global audience.

Specifically, Pyth Network has been selected to publish Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data, starting with quarterly releases going back five years, with plans to expand to a broader range of economic datasets. Chainlink, the other key partner, will provide data feeds from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), including Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index. This crucial economic information will be made available across a multitude of blockchain networks, including major ecosystems like Ethereum, Avalanche, Base, Bitcoin, Solana, Tron, Stellar, Arbitrum One, Polygon PoS, and Optimism.

This development is closer to science fiction than traditional finance. The same oracle network, Pyth, that secures data for over 350 decentralized applications (dApps) across more than 50 blockchains, processing over $2.5 trillion in total trading volume through its oracles, is now the system of record for the United States' core economic indicators. Pyth's extensive infrastructure, spanning over 107 blockchains and supporting more than 600 applications, positions it as a trusted source for on-chain data. This is not about speculative assets; it's about leveraging proven, robust technology for critical public services.

The significance of this collaboration cannot be overstated. By bringing official statistics on-chain, the U.S. government is embracing cryptographic verifiability and immutable publication, setting a new precedent for how governments interact with decentralized technology. This initiative aligns with broader transparency goals and is supported by Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, positioning the U.S. as a world leader in finance and blockchain innovation. The decision by a federal entity to trust decentralized oracles with sensitive economic data underscores the growing institutional confidence in these networks.

This is the cycle of the great onboarding. The distinction between "Web2" and "Web3" is rapidly becoming obsolete. When government data, institutional flows, and grassroots builders all operate on the same decentralized rails, we are simply talking about the internet—a new iteration, yes, but the internet nonetheless: an immutable internet where data is not only published but also verified and distributed in real-time.

Pyth Network stands as tangible proof that this technology serves a vital purpose. It demonstrates that the industry has moved beyond abstract "crypto tech" to offering solutions that address real-world needs and are now actively sought after and understood by traditional entities. Most importantly, it proves that Web3 is no longer seeking permission; it has received the highest validation a system can receive—the trust of governments and markets alike.

This is not merely a fleeting trend; it's a crowning moment in global adoption. The U.S. government has just validated what many in the Web3 space have been building towards for years: that Web3 is not a sideshow, but a foundational layer for the future. The current cycle will be remembered as the moment the world definitively crossed this threshold, marking the last great opportunity to truly say, "we were early."

US Dept of Commerce to publish GDP data on blockchain

On Tuesday during a televised White House cabinet meeting, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick announced the intention to publish GDP statistics on blockchains. Today Chainlink and Pyth said they were selected as the decentralized oracles to distribute the data.

Lutnick said, “The Department of Commerce is going to start issuing its statistics on the blockchain because you are the crypto President. And we are going to put out GDP on the blockchain, so people can use the blockchain for data distribution. And then we’re going to make that available to the entire government. So, all of you can do it. We’re just ironing out all the details.”

The data includes Real GDP and the PCE Price Index, which reflects changes in the prices of domestic consumer goods and services. The statistics are released monthly and quarterly. The biggest initial use will likely be by on-chain prediction markets. But as more data comes online, such as broader inflation data or interest rates from the Federal Reserve, it could be used to automate various financial instruments. Apart from using the data in smart contracts, sources of tamperproof data 👉will become increasingly important for generative AI.

While it would be possible to procure the data from third parties, it is always ideal to get it from the source to ensure its accuracy. Getting data directly from government sources makes it tamperproof, provided the original data feed has not been manipulated before it reaches the oracle.
