Aethir Launches Testnet for Cloud Gaming on Arbitrum
Aethir’s Decentralised Cloud Infrastructure (DCI), enabling a seamless
integration with its cloud game portals and establishing tokenomics to foster
industry wide innovation.
· Developers and users can
try out Aethir’s Testnet and provide feedback on the Testnet Discord channel.
Developers can get more information from Aethir’s technical docs.
Aethir, a pioneer in
Decentralised Cloud Infrastructure (DCI) for Gaming and AI, has announced the
launch of its Testnet. The Aethir Testnet launch enhances Aethir’s
Decentralised Cloud Infrastructure (DCI), delivering permissionless integration
with Aethir’s cloud-hosted game portals and laying the foundation for
beneficial tokenomics to support industry innovation.
Aethir recently
joined NVIDIA’s Inception Program to propel its mission of revolutionising the
gaming and AI industries.
Aethir’s
Testnet is the embodiment of years of development, innovation, and a sustained
vision to decentralise cloud infrastructure, unlocking the value of ultra-low
latency and scalable GPU-based compute.
“This is
a significant milestone for Aethir and the Web3 cloud industry, as we march
toward our goal of delivering a more equitable and developer-friendly Internet
supporting the use cases of tomorrow. We welcome developers to continue
building and innovating within Aethir’s Atmosphere, leveraging compute resources,
or contributing compute resources to foster a new way to interact across the
Internet ecosystem. Aethir’s Testnet is just the beginning, and it couldn’t be
possible without the support of the Web3 community as we democratise cloud
gaming, human-AI-interaction, and other exciting use cases,” said Kyle Okamoto,
CTO of Aethir.
The
Aethir Testnet provides game developers the tools and capabilities to onboard
their games and instantly create cloud gaming portals, while AI-focused
enterprises can enhance the human-AI interaction layer with scalable localized
computing power. Additionally, it gives enterprise GPU infrastructure providers
the opportunity to contribute their computing resources and receive rewards for
providing cloud services to Aethir’s community.
Key
Features of Aethir’s Testnet
· API Integration: Game developers can
upload games and create unique gaming portals using Aethir’s Testnet APIs
· Blockchain Browser: Developers and Container
Providers (Containers are the GPU resource providers within Aethir’s network)
can access on-chain data seamlessly
Development
Support Features:
· Operational Support Center: Aethir has also launched
an Operational Support Center to support developers and Container Providers as
they continue to scale the ecosystem.
· Onboarding Support: Comprehensive Onboarding
Guidelines are live for Game Developers and Container Providers. This
step-by-step guide ensures a smooth onboarding process for all Testnet
participants.
· Website Resources: All relevant materials,
Software Development Kits (SDKs), deployment tools and guidelines are
accessible on Aethir’s website.
Built on
Arbitrum, a highly scalable and reliable Ethereum-based blockchain, Aethir’s
Testnet launch enables ultra-low latency, scalable GPU-based compute publicly
accessible worldwide. The Aethir Testnet will undergo several phases in
coordination with community feedback and Aethir’s broader company
roadmap.
“At
Aethir, we’re not just pioneering the future of decentralised cloud computing;
we’re redefining the relationship between the AI and gaming industries, and
real-time cloud computing. With the launch of the Aethir Testnet, we’re
inviting developers and GPU resource providers to sign up and experience our
infrastructure. This is a small, but important, step for the company, and a
huge leap forward for the cloud computing industry overall,” said Mark Rydon,
co-founder and CEO of Aethir.
While
the Aethir Testnet launch is a significant milestone, Aethir will be releasing
continuous and regular updates as its technology continues to evolve. The
emphasis will be on enhancing user experience, improving real-time cloud
rendering capabilities, and strengthening the ecosystem via increased developer
support.

NZDUSD Technical Analysis
- The Fed left interest rates unchanged as
expected with basically no change to the statement. - Fed Chair Powell stressed
once again that they are proceeding carefully as the full effects of policy
tightening have yet to be felt. - The recent US Core PCE came
in line with expectations. - The labour market is
starting to show some weakness as Continuing Claims are now
rising at a fast pace and the NFP data
last Friday missed across the board. - The US Consumer
Confidence fell for the third consecutive month
although the data beat expectations. - The US ISM
Manufacturing PMI last week missed expectations by a big
margin, followed later on Friday with a disappointing ISM Services PMI,
although the index remained in expansion. - The market doesn’t expect the Fed to hike anymore.
New Zealand
- The RBNZ kept its official cash rate
unchanged while
stating that demand growth continues to ease and it’s expected to decline
further with monetary conditions remaining restrictive. - The New Zealand recent inflation data missed expectations supporting the
RBNZ’s stance. - The latest labour market report showed a notable increase in
the unemployment rate and a slowdown in wage growth which is something that is
likely to keep the RBNZ on the sidelines. - The Manufacturing PMI continues to slide further into
contraction, but the Services PMI jumped back into expansion. - The market doesn’t expect the RBNZ
to hike anymore.
NZDUSD Technical Analysis –
Daily Timeframe
On the daily chart, we can see that the NZDUSD pair
surged into the key resistance levels
following the miss in the NFP data last Friday. The sellers stepped in around
the 0.60 handle and the price sold off paring back all the Friday gains. The
failed break above the trendline left
behind a fakeout, which is generally a reversal pattern.
NZDUSD Technical Analysis –
4 hour Timeframe
On the 4 hour chart, we can see that we have a good
support zone around the 0.5915 level where there’s also the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level
for confluence. This is
where the buyers are likely to step in with a defined risk below the level to
position for another rally into the highs and target a breakout. The sellers,
on the other hand, will want to see the price breaking lower to target the
support around the 0.5860 level.
NZDUSD Technical Analysis –
1 hour Timeframe
On the 1 hour chart, we can see that if
the price breaks below the 0.5915 support, the buyers will have another
opportunity to position for a rally with an even better risk to reward setup
around the 0.5860 support where there’s also the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement
level for confluence. The sellers, again, will increase the bearish bets in
case the price breaks below the 0.5860 support and target a new low.
Upcoming Events
This week is pretty empty on the data front with just
the US Jobless Claims on Thursday and the University of Michigan Consumer
Sentiment on Friday. The market is likely to focus on the US Jobless Claims on
Thursday given the recent weakness in the labour market data.
