I've seen this gain traction on twitter, but I'm here to solicit more opinions and takes from actual bitcoiners.

I have used this just today. The premise is that the dapps are running on bitcoin. But there is a chain on the middle, which is "trustless computer".

The thing is that the transactions for the "dapps" are made on the bitcoin network, so I am not sure how the full details of the decentralization here works. For example, they have a "name system" set up, where I visit the name system "dapp", choose to register a name, connect it to my "trustless computer" wallet, and broadcast&sign a transaction on Bitcoin, to get my "name".

Have you guys ever heard of this? I searched for "trustless computer" and got zero results across the forum.

There was a coindesk article that mentioned this today, which is why I decided to come here.
