Singapore, Singapore, February 26th, 2024 – Chainwire
Aethir , a prominent name in decentralized GPU cloud services, has revealed its much-anticipated Node Sale. Aethir specializes in delivering GPU-as-a-service that caters specifically to AI and gaming enterprises. Their decentralized cloud setup allows GPU providers to link up with businesses that require the immense power of NVIDIA’s H100 chips for advanced AI and machine learning applications.
Additionally, Aethir’s infrastructure is geared towards cloud gaming customers and has established partnerships with some of the largest names in the gaming and telecom sectors, harnessing its vast technical and operational prowess.
$ATH token serves as the backbone of the Aethir network, designed to incentivize node providers and validators for upholding the integrity of Aethir’s decentralized cloud infrastructure. The process begins with Checker Nodes, which act as validators within the ecosystem, ensuring equal chances for all to validate transactions and earn extra rewards by identifying and penalizing malicious activities.
Aethir’s goal is to become a key infrastructure ally for enterprises, utilizing the Arbitrum ecosystem for DePIN and AI services, while launching its own node sale through this platform.
Why Run a Node on Aethir?
Becoming a node operator on Aethir not only supports the decentralization of cloud computing but also allows users to gain rewards simply by participating in the network. The very first type of node that will be available is the checker node, which any user can operate to aid in verifying aspects such as uptime, latency, service quality, and computational capabilities offered by fellow node participants in the future. The Aethir team is deeply committed to ensuring a decentralized framework in every dimension of the initiative. Their dedication to decentralization and community governance starts with making checker nodes licenses open, which are essential for validating service quality within the Aethir infrastructure.
The Node Sale details are as follows:
- A total of 100,000 nodes will be up for grabs, structured within a tiered pricing model.
- Sales will occur on the Arbitrum network through a public offering.
- Nodes can be transferred one year after the initial purchase.
- Users will accumulate rewards that will be distributed according to a vesting schedule.
- There is no limit to the number of nodes a single individual can buy.
- A special allocation for the Aethir community, partners, and key opinion leaders (KOLs) will be designated for whitelisting early adopters of the network.
Unique Earning Prospects for Node Operators
Node operators within Aethir’s ecosystem have the potential to earn up to 15% of the total token supply designated for checker Node Operators across the next four years. Additional rewards are set aside for various roles related to mining and technical support within the network. By contributing to the verification of data and service offerings, nodes provide a system of checks and balances vital for the future mining capacity utilizing AI-enhanced processing chips and other computing resources.
This checker node sale presents an inclusive opportunity for everyone to engage in building a decentralized ecosystem comprised of the most extensive collection of AI computational power. It eliminates the requirement for regular users to be fully equipped from day one to handle demanding computational tasks.
Public Node Sale with Tiered Pricing – An Invitation for Everyone to Join
With entry prices for checker nodes beginning at $500 and increasing across tiers, along with specific whitelists for varied participants among the Aethir community, partner groups, KOLs, and venture firms, this sale has been crafted to encourage participation from all sectors.
Participants will utilize wrapped ETH (WETH) on the Arbitrum network, and full details about the sale will be provided at this link: http://checker.aethir.com Comprehensive information regarding node operation will be unveiled during the testnet launch.
Aethir takes great pride in announcing its first-ever tiered decentralized AI public node sale, ensuring that access to its growing network is both fair and extensive. While a few nodes are saved for whitelisting, including those for KOLs and community members, most nodes will be available to the wider public on a first-come, first-serve basis. This approach guarantees that everyone has a shot at participating in Aethir’s groundbreaking push towards decentralization.
KOLs will be equipped with unique referral links to share with their followers, allowing them to earn commissions for each node sold via their unique code.
