-

Cocoon, unveiled by Pavel Durov at Blockchain Life 2025, is Telegram’s answer to rising user concerns about data privacy in AI tools.
Durov says centralized compute providers inflate costs and compromise confidentiality.
By contrast, Cocoon uses a trustless GPU marketplace, offering:
• Lower compute costs
• No centralized data storage
• On-chain transparency
GPU owners are already earning TON as the network processes its first real-world user queries. -
Pavel Durov’s warning about centralized AI raises valid concerns.
-
Centralized AI systems could be both costly and risky at global scale.

He is a modern Hero
-
Decentralized compute is the only future that makes sense.

Cocoon fixes the trust problem Big Tech never could.
