Welcome to Holistic Investments, where we explore the future of technology and innovation! In this in-depth interview, we sit down with Sebastian Pfeiffer, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Impossible Cloud Network (ICN), a groundbreaking decentralized cloud platform challenging the dominance of traditional cloud giants like AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Sebastian takes us through the fascinating origin story of ICN, its mission to decentralize the cloud, and how it leverages a multi-service DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network) to deliver enterprise-grade performance.
Discover how ICN is addressing critical issues like digital sovereignty, vendor lock-in, and the growing demand for edge computing in the era of AI and Web3. From its ICNT token mechanics to strategic partnerships with industry leaders like Supermicro and IoTeX, this conversation uncovers why ICN is poised to reshape the $300B+ cloud computing industry. Learn about real-world use cases, regulatory compliance in the Swiss-EU framework, and ICN’s vision for a decentralized, scalable, and open cloud ecosystem.
