GAIMIN Strengthens Strategic Vision with Two New Advisory Board Appointments

At GAIMIN, we believe the future is built not just with powerful technology, but also with powerful minds. That’s why we’re proud to welcome two outstanding global leaders to our Advisory Board: Steve Cadigan and Alexis Dahan.

These appointments represent a significant milestone in leveraging top industry expertise as we scale GAIMIN’s growth across various business verticals. Both Steve and Alexis bring decades of proven experience, deep industry insight, and the kind of forward-thinking leadership that aligns perfectly with GAIMIN’s mission of building next-gen decentralized infrastructure for gamers and developers.

Why Cloud Costs Are Now a Board-Level Crisis

GAIMIN CEO writes to all peers in the cloud industry: providers, enterprises, startups, developers, and the finance leaders who now sit at the center of this storm.

But today, that promise seems to have been broken. Instead of clarity, our industry has built a system of complexity. Instead of flexibility, it has created dependence. Instead of efficiency, it introduced unpredictability. The cloud, which was meant to be an invisible utility, has become a board-level liability.
