Hey everybody, how's it going?
Hey, this is Wes, good day.
Can you, do I sound okay? You hear a loud grunty bulldog in the background? Or is this noise translation open? It sounds pretty good. I do not hear a bulldog. It's bulldog filtering.
It might be a little bit echoed. That might be worth testing.
You see, it all has a gun.
I think there might be a waiting just on Shannon who maybe give her a minute or two more and we can start.
Awesome. I think maybe we can just get started. Yeah. Well, awesome. Thanks for joining everybody. Super excited to have everyone here.
I guess this is now episode two and we're going to be chatting about with the FEM computer for data and what it will enable and we have some wonderful guests from our friends at Bako Yao and from live peer. So yeah, looking forward to it.
But I guess just for folks who may not know, my name is Jonathan Victor, I work at Critical Labs. I do a lot of work on our ecosystem side, get to bounce around and work with a bunch of different folks. So, super excited to be able to help moderate this discussion today. Maybe West, Siwhale, if you guys want to introduce yourself.
Hey, this is Wes from the Bakoyal project. We are very busy bringing compute over data to the Falkoin ecosystem and very excited with some of the stuff that we're doing to build FTM integrations. I'm responsible as a product
manager for Backle Yow, spending a lot of time with partners, and also helping with what we call our Compute Overnata Working Group, it's COD.cloud, which is other participants even sort of in the broader PL network that are building on Filecoin, IPFS and similar technologies.
I think we have Shannon as well. Maybe Shannon and Celia, so you guys want to introduce yourselves. Hey, thanks Jonathan. My name is Shannon. I'm head of ecosystem growth at live peer. Live peer is a web 3 video infrastructure protocol.
We are a decentralized open source network of effectively GPUs who provide decentralized video compute to do important things like transcoding, which is what you need to do to put bra video files on the internet.
really excited to be part of the protocol labs ecosystem as we try and grow the amount of video files on the web that are stored essentially on the Filecoin network and excited to chat about what FEM means for all that today.
So, thank you for joining us. See how you want to introduce yourself.
explanation of what it does. And yeah, I'm very much excited to join this workshop and talk about AVM and opportunities with live peer and other technology.
Awesome. Well, maybe to start, I can do a quick overview of the FEM for folks who are less familiar and then maybe for the back of the hour and for life here if you guys want to talk a little bit more about your networks. So yeah, I mean the way to think about the FEM,
So Falcoin today has been a blockchain that has a storage network that anchors into it. The thing that the FVN really unlocks for us is this idea of like how do we get on chain computation? So like how do we bring smart contracts and the composability that you normally get from other like LLs?
But bring that functionality into file coins you can start doing stuff with the other services of the network. So today the main service that we have is sort of storage, but over time there will be more services things like a distributed CDN, the ability to trigger off-chain compute, which is some of the
