Overview
Bless is a decentralized platform that transforms the idle computational capacity of personal devices—such as laptops, desktops, and smartphones—into a unified global computer. This approach allows individuals to contribute to and benefit from the network, challenging the traditional dominance of large technology companies in internet infrastructure.
Key Features
-
User Participation: Individuals can join the Bless network by installing a browser extension, which facilitates the sharing of their device’s idle resources. The platform ensures that only available resources are utilized, maintaining the primary performance of the user’s device.
-
Secure Environment: Bless employs a secure runtime and sandbox environment to protect user data and device integrity. This design ensures that only computational power is accessed, without compromising personal information.
-
Reward System: Participants accrue time credits based on their contributions to the network, incentivizing continuous engagement and resource sharing.
Network Architecture
Bless utilizes a network-neutral application (nnApp) framework, enabling decentralized applications to operate independently of traditional blockchain constraints. This architecture allows applications to leverage the computational power provided by users, facilitating efficient and scalable decentralized computing.
Use Cases
The Bless network supports various applications, including:
-
Decentralized Applications (dApps): By providing a scalable and efficient computing environment, Bless enables dApps to operate without relying solely on blockchain networks, enhancing performance and reducing costs.
-
Edge Computing: Bless facilitates decentralized edge computing by leveraging the proximity of user devices, reducing latency and improving the efficiency of data processing tasks.
