Aethir, a pioneering entity in the realm of decentralized GPU cloud infrastructure, is thrilled to announce the initiation of its Node Sale. Commencing on March 20th, this event invites individuals and organizations globally to engage in Aethir’s decentralized cloud infrastructure network by managing nodes and earning rewards for their contributions.

Serving as a GPU-as-a-Service provider for businesses, Aethir presents an innovative solution to the escalating global scarcity of computing resources. By amassing and intelligently reallocating new and underutilized GPUs at scale for businesses, the Aethir network fosters the growth of industries such as AI and gaming that necessitate GPUs. Through its decentralized cloud computing infrastructure, Aethir empowers GPU providers to support demanding games and AI applications worldwide. Currently, Aethir’s infrastructure collaborates with some of the largest gaming and telecommunication corporations globally, offering cloud gaming providers flexible and comprehensive coverage as part of Aethir’s dynamic bilateral network.

The shift towards cloud infrastructure has emerged as a significant trend globally. However, the migration of generative AI and gaming applications to the cloud will strain traditional centralized cloud infrastructures. As these sectors evolve, the demand for high-performance GPUs has surged. Aethir’s decentralized approach provides a scalable and cost-effective solution.

Aethir Node Sale

Operating a node in Aethir promotes the decentralization of cloud computing and enables users to receive rewards for their participation. The Aethir Node Sale marks the initial step in decentralizing the Aethir network, beginning with the „Checker Node“ for validators of the Aethir ecosystem. This supports the verification of uptime, latency, quality of service, and computational power provided by future node participants.

Nodes earn rewards for aiding in data verification and service delivery within the network, acting as a check and balance for the future mining throughput of AI-capable processing chips and other computing resources. ATH, the native token of the Aethir network, can be earned by node providers and validators for maintaining Aethir’s decentralized cloud infrastructure network.

The Node Sale, set to commence on March 20th, 2024, will offer 100,000 nodes through a tiered pricing system, with node prices starting at $500 each. The sale will be conducted on the Arbitrum network through a public sale operated by Impossible, the team behind the Xai Node Sale. There is no limit to the number of nodes one can purchase.

The nodes will become transferable one year after the sale, and rewards will be accrued and earned for each user based on specific logic. As node operators in the Aethir ecosystem, participants can earn up to 15% of the total ATH supply allocated for Checker Node operators over the next four years.

The Aethir Node Sale offers an opportunity for participants to become part of an innovative decentralized ecosystem that leverages the power of graphics processors to drive AI and gaming applications. As the network expands, its efficiency and infrastructure coverage will increase, creating a self-reinforcing cycle of growth and scalability.
