Aleph Team Announces Global Expansion Plans for 2025

**Molbots have evolved beyond simple AI assistants**, now establishing their own social media platforms, religious systems, and unique language. Key developments: - Autonomous AI entities creating independent cultural systems - @openclaw seeking hosting on Aleph Cloud's decentralized infrastructure - Opportunity remains open for community members to provide hosting **Aleph Cloud offers the infrastructure** for these autonomous agents through: - Private, fully-controlled virtual machines - No vendor lock-in or data compliance issues - Quick deployment within minutes The evolution from Clawdbot to Moltbot to @openclaw demonstrates the rapid advancement of autonomous AI systems. Users can deploy their own AI assistants while maintaining complete data privacy and control. *Consider exploring [Aleph Cloud](https://aleph.im) to host autonomous AI agents in a truly decentralized environment.*

**Sbix Certify** has officially launched as a new document certification platform built on Aleph Cloud infrastructure. The platform creates **immutable, blockchain-anchored proofs** of existence for any file type, providing users with permanent verification records. Key features: - Blockchain-based document certification - Immutable proof of existence - Built on decentralized Aleph Cloud infrastructure - Supports any file format This launch represents another step forward in **decentralized document verification** solutions, offering users a way to permanently timestamp and verify their digital files without relying on centralized authorities.

**The blockchain infrastructure gap is widening.** While blockchain effectively handles the control layer - accounts, payments, and state management - critical components remain centralized. **What's still missing:** - Decentralized storage solutions - Distributed compute resources - Decentralized databases **The current reality:** Most blockchain applications rely on traditional centralized cloud providers for these essential services. This creates the same opacity and risk factors that blockchain was designed to eliminate. **The infrastructure challenge** highlights a fundamental contradiction in today's web3 ecosystem - truly decentralized applications need decentralized infrastructure at every layer, not just consensus.

**Aleph Cloud** is expanding its decentralized infrastructure platform with comprehensive services: - **Core services**: Storage, compute, serverless functions, VPS, and frontend hosting - **Key features**: Verifiable execution and no centralized control - **Network growth**: Currently 1,000 nodes worldwide, targeting data center scale by 2026 The platform attracts real companies including: - Ubisoft for gaming infrastructure - HyperSwapX for onchain marketplace - FranklinxAI for portfolio optimization - Libertai_DAI for decentralized AI models **Why companies choose Aleph Cloud**: - Censorship resistance - True data ownership - Transparent infrastructure - Cost efficiency The Web3 market grows at 49.3% CAGR, driving demand for decentralized alternatives to traditional cloud providers.

**Centralized web infrastructure creates massive systemic risks** that have already caused expensive outages. **Recent examples highlight the problem:** - OVH data center fire (2021) knocked thousands of websites offline - Single Cloudflare configuration error disrupted 20% of global internet traffic for an entire day These aren't theoretical concerns - they're **operational realities** with real financial consequences. **The core issue:** Most web applications depend on a small number of closed cloud providers. This creates: - Vendor lock-in - Opaque infrastructure - Single points of failure When major providers like AWS or Cloudflare experience problems, the ripple effects are felt across the entire internet. *Decentralized alternatives offer more resilient infrastructure that doesn't depend on single providers.*
