On June 11, 2023, io.net launched with a straightforward idea. AI workloads need more compute than centralized hyperscalers can ever deliver, and the solution would be a decentralized network of GPUs, not another mega data center, that turns underutilized capacity into on-demand infrastructure. Three years later, we’ve fundamentally changed the AI compute market. io.net is now the largest decentralized GPU network in the world. Thousands of GPUs distributed globally, with $8 million in enterpri
Three years ago, we started io.net with a simple, powerful belief that the infrastructure behind AI shouldn't be in the hands of a few giant corporations. Today, we're taking a huge step toward making that vision a reality. As we celebrate our third anniversary, we're excited to announce the official launch of the Incentive Dynamic Engine (IDE). It's a new way of thinking about our tokenomics that ties the supply of $IO directly to how much people are actually using the network. We'll be perman

The DePIN use case for AI and ML compute is pretty straightforward: physical infrastructure networks make efficiency gains when supply-side coordination moves on-chain. With DePIN, no single operator provisions compute hardware and takes on all of the capital risk. Instead, decentralized networks incentivize distributed participants, from GPUs and storage nodes to wireless radios and sensors, to deploy resources and receive compensation by way of token economics. Amongst Layer 1s, Solana has em
TL;DR * A LoRA fine-tune on a 7B model costs under $10. * A 70B QLoRA run costs $15–30. * Full fine-tuning a 70B on 8 GPUs for a day costs $200–300. * If your actual spend is materially higher, the gap is almost certainly the GPU pricing layer, not the job itself. Fine-tuning a large language model costs anywhere from $3 to $3,000. Model size, GPU tier, and whether you're running LoRA adapters or attempting a full-weight update are all factors that can impact pricing. The reality is tha
