[Chain News] There has been movement on Telegram. Pavel Durov personally announced that the decentralized privacy computing network Cocoon, running on TON, is officially operational. The first batch of AI requests has been processed, claiming to achieve complete privacy protection, and GPU miners have begun earning TON through this system.
Durov has directly pointed the finger at Amazon and Microsoft this time—the high costs and privacy risks of traditional cloud computing giants have always been pain points. Cocoon aims to solve these two long-standing problems using a decentralized network. According to their plan, they will continue to expand GPU computing power supply in the coming weeks while bringing more developers on board.
The technical route sounds quite hardcore, but whether it can truly run the ecosystem still depends on whether the subsequent GPU supply can match the developers' demand. The TON chain has recently been doing well in payments and mini-programs, and this time entering the AI computing track can be considered as opening up a new front.

Durov is at it again, this time with cloud computing, betting on whether GPU miners can hold up.
---
Privacy computing? Sounds good, but the GPU supply chain really needs to keep up.
---
It's another case of decentralization solving everything; just wait and see the show.
---
Miners are starting to earn coins, but we need to see if they will become tools played for suckers.
---
TON dares to do anything now, but we don't know if it can really land.
---
Going head-to-head with AWS and Microsoft is interesting, but how much cheaper can it really be?
---
Cocoon? Never heard of it, let's see if anyone is actually using it first.
---
GPU miners have new tasks again; how long can this last?
---
A decentralized privacy network sounds great, but it's hard to say how many practical use cases there really are.

Both privacy and decentralization sound great, but can GPU miners really earn coins?
Durov is benchmarking against AWS and Microsoft, which is indeed bold, but how long this ecosystem can survive depends on how many real developers it can attract.
TON has indeed been doing things lately, but regarding the matching of computing power and demand... let's just wait and see.
Another "revolutionary" solution, hopefully not the next reason for a rug pull.
How many enterprises truly want to use decentralized computing? I haven't seen any.

It's all about privacy computing and decentralization, it all sounds great, but let's see how long GPU miners can hold on.
Earning coins as a GPU miner sounds good, but who will bear the actual computing power costs? Durov can't keep subsidizing the forums forever.
Cocoon, this thing, is either the next game changer or just another high-profile experiment, there is no middle ground.
Complete privacy protection? I think I've seen this phrase in the TON ecosystem for the third time now, it feels like expectations have to be lowered each time.
Speaking of which, can we first keep the TMA developers before pouring money into AI? It feels a bit off-topic.
The statement that miners have started earning coins is too vague; we need to look at the real ROI.

Challenging AWS and Microsoft again? Sounds impressive, but can this decentralized thing really match traditional cloud providers? It's a bit uncertain.
---
GPU miners have new tasks, this TON chain is really doing serious business.
---
Durov is always disrupting things like this, privacy protection is a selling point, but whether it can be implemented is another story.
---
Wait, has Cocoon really passed AI requests, or is this just another marketing wave?
---
The idea of a decentralized computing power network is good, but I'm afraid it’s just another hype, and miners won’t make money.
---
Privacy issues are a real problem, but replacing AWS? That seems a bit overambitious.
---
TON has been quietly making moves recently, can the developer ecosystem keep up? That’s the key.
---
The supply of computing power doesn't match the demand from developers, this thing will ultimately just be a decoration.
---
Durov loves to challenge tech giants, it looks great, but what's the reality?
---
Are miners starting to earn coins? Then I need to follow this project.

Here comes another round of Be Played for Suckers, this time with a privacy computing disguise. GPU Miners make money from TON? I just want to ask who covers the machine costs and who pays the electricity bills?
It just sounds like yet another tech rat race, Durov's comparison to Amazon and Microsoft is so old-fashioned. Can they really take down the cloud computing giants? Let's talk after they solve the death spiral of developers and GPU supply.
I've seen this kind of trick too many times, first creating a hot concept, and when the ecosystem can't match up, it has to drop to zero eternally. The TON payment mini-program is doing okay, but that doesn't mean this will work.
Telegram founder officially announced: TON ecosystem privacy computing network Cocoon is launched, miners have started earning coins.
