I don't think this is particularly special. In other countries it's possible to obtain Dexcom's current line up by purchasing it online (G6, ONE, G7) and other brands too like Abbott's Freestyle Libre.
It seems like this is a stripped down version of the G7 (albeit with a longer wear time) as the ONE is a stripped down version of the G6.

Interesting read, I agree with adopting an identity platform but this can definitely be contentious if you want to own your data.
I wonder how much one should pay attention to future problems at the start of a startup versus "move fast and break things." Some of this stuff might just put you off finishing.

Looks like they've reserved a bunch of compute from Lambda Labs?
Edit: Based off this tweet, looks very similar https://twitter.com/LambdaAPI/status/1668676838044868620

As someone with experience using services like these, and at the price point and solve speed their offering its quite clear that is a model. Legacy players using low paid humans had solve speeds >20 seconds usually and now model based solvers are now down to under a second.

As someone who has worked within this industry, I absolutely hate these terms. Throwing things on a blockchain is a mile backwards for most use cases.
