beyond the machine

The CEDEN content delivery network optimizes the delivery of interactive entertainment, reduces costs, and dramatically reduces the ecological footprint for game publishers. It is tailored to serve the needs of gamers and game developers in the metaverse era, powered by our peer-to-peer NFT node network.

The EDEN gaming engine is our open source engine that allows interactive entertainment to transcend today’s technical
limitations.

Gamers deserve access to communities they resonate with, free of the financial and physical restrictions that the current platform–centric industry encumbers them with. We all deserve a future free from landfills piled high with outdated consoles and hardware.

It`s time to move beyond the machine.

why

Why Ceden, why now?

CEDEN provides an open source decentralized AI infrastructure. Key benefits include:

More Efficient

By satisfying growth in CDN demand, CEDEN`s NFT nodes enable faster, reliable and more efficient content delivery.

Smoother

By utilizing AI, CEDEN allows for optimized local caching of content, reducing latency and increased frame rates.

Peer-to-peer

CEDEN’s peer-to-peer architecture offers a more efficient, trustless, and sustainable approach to content delivery.

Web 3 Gaming

The CEDEN network facilitates the creation and delivery of Web3 gaming content that integrates on-chain identity, NFTs and tokenized economies.

Open source

The EDEN engine offers a modular and open source approach for game development, that facilitates more immersive metaverse level games and applications.

network

The CEDEN Network

The foundation of our infrastructure toolkit is the CEDEN Network.

CEDEN is a future-ready content delivery network (CDN) of efficiently interconnected peer-to-peer non-fungible token (NFT) nodes. Guided by AI algorithms, these NFT nodes streamline the delivery of data downloads by creating localized points of presence at the network edge that enable game publishers to host and serve content to their customer base.

The CEDEN Network is designed to empower the open source AI and network communities to achieve a truly decentralized delivery environment for the new era of entertainment that belongs to everyone, not just the monolithic corporations controlling the origin servers.

CEDEN eliminates monstrous centralized data centers.

CEDEN eliminates hardware manufacturing.

CEDEN allows interactive entertainment to transcend the tech limitations that prevent the future.

engine

The EDEN Engine

Envision a Game of Thrones style battle charge, with a diverse cast of thousands forging forward on foot and horseback as dragons fly overhead spewing fireballs…

Full cinematic engagement can now be delivered via the EDEN Engine which allows for an unprecedented number of assets to exist concurrently and interact with one another.

EDEN is our open source game development engine, delivering two key components to the CEDEN proposition. Firstly, it is elegantly moddable to serve the interests and needs of gamers, with the ability for gamers to directly access the engine and all its capabilities for customisation.

Secondly, EDEN-powered games will serve as genre templates. For example, if a gamer has downloaded a racing game, he or she can access the engine to create their own unique racing game, using the original as a template.

The EDEN technological innovation drastically reduces game development time, increases concurrent development (where designers, animators and artists can work together in real time), and enables the maximization of system resources.

$CDN

The CEDEN utility token ($CDN) serves as a proof of stake (PoS) mechanism for node operators who wish to service network content delivery needs and earn rewards.

Node operators stake a pre-defined total of $CDN tokens in order to mint a production NFT with a unique ID. Production NFTs grant the user the privilege to run the required hardware and software to earn block rewards and workload revenues.

NFT Node operators provide a peer-to-peer edge of network points of presence. These are used for content delivery, caching and data storage, handle routing, data service, and relay work. In exchange, node operators receive a share of the block rewards and the contract rate revenue generated by the CDN services their nodes perform.

Ten percent of the $CDN supply is issued via a daily airdrop to all CEDEN Keystone NFT nodes. This will begin at network launch and continue for four years.

Ninety percent of the $CDN supply will be released via block rewards distributed to active nodes in the network. 10% is shared by active Keystone NFTs. 90% is shared by active production NFTs.
