Hyperliquid's Jeff Yan pitches consumer hardware for financial networks
- —Yan proposed running financial networks on consumer hardware instead of data centers
- —A node would need only 128GB of RAM, he said
- —The approach aims to cut network operating costs and entry barriers
- —The comments were made on Bloomberg's Odd Lots podcast
Why it matters: If Hyperliquid and other projects follow this path, validator costs could fall and decentralization could improve.
