During Apple‘s much-anticipated Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2023) held on June 5, there was mention of Render Token (RNDR), a product linked to a distributed GPU rendering service on the blockchain. This stirred speculation about a possible collaboration between Apple and the company behind Render Token.
Apple and the Company Behind Render Token, OTOY
With the entrance of AI chatbots such as ChatGPT and similar products into our lives, altcoins based on artificial intelligence like Render Token and SingularityNET (AGIX) have been gaining popularity recently. Despite widespread expectations, AI chatbots and similar products have not yet integrated any kind of cryptocurrency payments.
Anticipations rose with the introduction of Apple’s virtual reality glasses, Vision Pro, at WWDC 2023. It was expected that a development related to cryptocurrency integration might occur. However, there was no mention of any feature or update concerning the cryptocurrency market during the event. Nevertheless, Apple appears to be well-positioned for collaboration with OTOY, a company whose CEO is also responsible for the establishment of Render Token.
Possible Apple and Octane X Collaboration
Apple’s inclusion of Octane X, a GPU rendering feature currently available on the Mac App Store, during its event drew the attention of RNDR altcoin investors. As OTOY is the company behind both products, this indicates a direct link with Render Token. OTOY’s CEO, Jules Urbach, founded Render Token in 2016 to provide decentralized GPU-based rendering solutions. This has led to speculation about a possible collaboration between Apple and Octane X in the near future.
A Twitter account named Satoshi’s Tears commented on the issue, stating, “OTOY and Render Token are in collaboration and are well-positioned for a partnership with Apple. Octane X can currently be downloaded from Apple’s App Store.”
Although it was initially expected that Apple’s Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) product, the Vision Pro glasses, would feature the GPU processing service offered by Render Token, no such collaboration was mentioned during the event.
