Openledger is a decentralized blockchain platform that focuses on developing the underlying infrastructure for data supply during AI model training. OpenLedger has been a leader in the field for the past decade. It has established itself as the data blockchain for creating smarter, more verifiable AI models.

OpenLedger’s decentralized data ecosystem is underpinned by its innovative proof of attribution (PoA) consensus mechanism. Under PoA, contributors’ supplied data is tracked, monitored, and compensated based on their contributions to different types of model training.

However, costly centralized GPU cloud providers are a significant hurdle to expanding the OpenLedger network further. These providers often impose unnecessary constraints, such as additional hosting fees and bottlenecks that limit the supply of compute to smaller projects. As a result, centralized cloud providers like AWS and Google Cloud can be prohibitive in further building out OpenLedger. io.net offers an alternative solution.

Expanding Decentralized AI modeling with io.net

By tapping into the io.net network of decentralized cloud compute, OpenLedger gains access to vast computational resources for a fraction of the cost of the centralized providers. This enables OpenLedger to expand its offerings by processing larger data sets at a more efficient price, ultimately improving performance and allowing OpenLedger to scale faster by empowering more end developers.

io.net benefits from the partnership by having a highly scalable model in constant demand for cheap GPU cloud compute. It further elevates io.net’s reputation as an affordable alternative to centralized providers incentivizes io.net GPU providers to remain on the network by having a consistent buyer on the other end.

The Future of Decentralized AI Modeling and Cloud Compute

As OpenLedger looks to move out of its testnet, the partnership with io.net offers the potential for innovative solutions for the future of decentralized AI build-out. Opportunities like the expansion of real-time multi-AI agent systems and domain-specific chatbots could be built on and executed by decentralized AI protocols like OpenLedger and powered by io.net’s decentralized GPU cloud network.

The partnership also represents a more holistic view of the build-out of decentralized protocols in general. By partnering, io.net and OpenLedger are further expanding the use cases of decentralized models, providing competitive alternatives to centralized providers, ultimately creating more efficient models, and passing on the benefits to the end user.
