DePIN

The Decentralized Cloud Gaming / Pixel Streaming Network (DePIN) by YOM is designed to revolutionize the way immersive gaming experiences are delivered, making high-quality, low-latency gaming accessible globally. At its core, YOM leverages distributed GPU networks, empowering gamers, studios, and brands to stream premium content without costly infrastructure or hardware limitations.

YOM’s DePIN infrastructure consists of self-hosted and delegated nodes, all managed through a decentralized, AI-driven resource orchestrator, ensuring seamless scalability, performance, and global reach.

Streamer Nodes

The Streamer Nodes form the backbone of the YOM network, responsible for rendering and delivering high-fidelity gaming content to users in real-time. These nodes execute demanding workloads such as:

• Downloading and initializing game assets.

• Running game instances using high-performance GPUs.

• Streaming pixel-perfect content to any device via ultra-low latency connections.

Node OS – The Power Behind Streamer Nodes

Each Streamer Node operates on Node OS, a custom Ubuntu-based operating system built specifically for cloud gaming. Node OS ensures an effortless experience with its automated updates, seamless security protocols, and headless operation, allowing node operators to focus on earnings rather than maintenance.

Node OS enables:

• Automated Updates: Ensures optimal performance and security with regular updates pushed remotely.

• Resource Efficiency: Optimized to allocate system resources efficiently, minimizing power consumption while maximizing performance.

• Security: Built-in encryption and secure boot mechanisms to protect game data and prevent unauthorized access.

• Headless: Allows full remote management via an app without physical intervention, enhancing flexibility for operators.

• Flexibility: For our regular users, It is pre-installed on a 2TB SSD device, allowing instant setup with minimal configuration. Advanced users can deploy the same OS directly on any Linux host.

Streamer Node Deployment Options:

• Self-Hosted Nodes:

  • Deploy nodes on existing gaming rigs.

  • Requirements: 3GB VRAM, multi-core CPU, 16GB RAM.

  • Maximize earnings by assigning additional nodes via the YOM dashboard.

• Plug-and-Play Devices:

  • Purchase a pre-configured 2TB SSD (includes 2 free nodes).

  • Simple "plug-and-play" experience with automatic booting.

  • Ideal for users looking for an effortless setup.

• Delegated Nodes (NaaS):

  • Hands-off approach via Node-as-a-Service providers.

  • Providers handle all technical aspects.

  • Suitable for users seeking passive income without hardwar

Resource Orchestrator (AI)

At the core of YOM's DePIN efficiency is the AI-powered Resource Orchestrator, responsible for dynamically managing and optimizing the network to ensure high availability, optimal performance, and fair resource distribution. The Orchestrator performs optimizes for two aspects: allocation of games to nodes and orchestration of users to nodes.

1. Game Caching

To maximize throughput and minimize latency, the Orchestrator intelligently determines which games should be pre-installed on each node's 2TB SSD. Key Considerations:

• Regional Demand: Nodes are prioritized to cache popular games based on local player activity trends to reduce loading times.

• Storage Optimization: Ensuring efficient use of the available 2TB SSD space by balancing popular, high-demand games with newer game titles.

• Pre-emptive Allocation: Predicting and dynamically allocating game images to nodes in anticipation of peak demand periods, reducing bottlenecks.

This proactive approach ensures that games are readily available, minimizing download times and maximizing the player's experience with instant game launches.

2. Session Orchestration

Once a player initiates a session, the Orchestrator optimally selects a node based on a variety of key factors to ensure the lowest latency, highest quality, and equitable distribution of workload. Selection Criteria:

• Network Latency: Directs users to the nearest available node for minimal ping and faster response times.

• Node Reputation: The Orchestrator dynamically references the leaderboard rankings to allocate sessions based on node performance, uptime, and contribution. Higher-ranked nodes receive higher-priority workloads, incentivizing node operators to maintain high performance.

• Node Equity. Balances workload across the network by rotating nodes to ensure fair utilization and prevent overuse of high-demand nodes.

• Game Availability: Nodes with pre-installed game assets are prioritized for faster session initiation. Ensures a near-instantaneous streaming experience for players. This ties into the game allocation.

By considering these factors, the Resource Orchestrator guarantees smooth, uninterrupted gameplay experiences, maximizing efficiency and fairness across the decentralized network.

Leaderboard Synergy

The Orchestrator and the Node Leaderboard work in tandem to create an incentive-driven ecosystem, where node operators are motivated to maintain high standards.

• Nodes with higher leaderboard rankings (based on uptime, availability, and $YRX holdings) enjoy priority access to the most lucrative workloads.

• Lower-ranked nodes get rotated on the network to be able to still run workloads to prevent underutilization and encourage fair earnings distribution.

• Operators are encouraged to participate actively in the network to improve their leaderboard position, leading to better earning opportunities.
