What YOM is

Composed · as of Sep 4, 2026Tracked · 1 handle · in graph since Sep 4, 2026

YOM is a decentralised (DePIN) cloud-gaming network that streams games from a distributed network of GPU nodes rather than centralised data centres, targeting sub-15ms latency. It is building a sovereign Avalanche Layer-1 as its compute coordination engine and reports more than 1,000 nodes and 40+ integrated game publishers. In a round led by the Avalanche Foundation it raised a 3M strategic tranche, with Borderless Capital, Outlier Ventures, CV VC, Protein Capital, Blockraise and Simms International participating; YOM has also joined NVIDIA Inception.

Ecosystem

YOM appears in no ecosystem directory we track. This record answers graph_intake/descout-YOM_Official — a suggestion raised by the ecosystem-pulse monitor and adjudicated in the 2026-09-04 graph_intake triage (tasks/graph-intake-triage-2026-09-04.md), which researches an accepted suggestion from first-party sources rather than accepting the mention. Surfaced twice by the ecosystem-pulse monitor (descout-YOM_Official and descout-yom_official — one entity, two handle-case rows) and researched from first-party sources on 2026-09-04. The Avalanche Foundation led its 3M strategic round.

Enrichment note

This entry was created from a suggestion in the graph_intake queue and researched against first-party sources on 2026-09-04. Its prose restates what the cited sources say and nothing more: we have published no coverage of YOM yet, and no editorial judgement about it has been made. The credibility assessment recorded with the proposal names both what makes it credible and what to doubt.

Chain membership: YOM’s own site states it is building its sovereign Layer-1 mainnet — its Compute Coordination Engine — on Avalanche, and the CV VC investor release names the Avalanche L1 mainnet as the use of funds.
