Privacy-focused AI platform Venice secures own ASN, moves to self-owned bare-metal infrastructure
0xAllen_ · x · 2026-08-01
Privacy-first AI platform Venice has obtained its own Autonomous System Number (AS402818), giving it dedicated IP address space and the ability to run its own network infrastructure instead of routing through AWS or Cloudflare. This indicates a shift from rented cloud GPUs to owned bare-metal servers, enhancing data privacy, reducing latency, and avoiding cloud provider censorship or rate limits. ARIN records show registration on July 27, 2026, tied to Venice, Inc. in Sheridan, Wyoming, with Jesse Proudman announcing the network backbone going live.
