World Computer Day Davos
The World Computer is a vision for a global, decentralized network that can host software and data in a secure and tamper-proof manner.
Compared to traditional IT infrastructure the World Computer provides immunity to cyberattacks, is unstoppable, and greatly simplifies the building and maintenance of web applications and internet services.
Moreover, it enables the creation of sovereign, decentralized applications that eliminate single points of failure and dependency.
