How to build and scale GPU clusters on io.net: A practical guide
How to build and scale GPU clusters on io.net: A practical guide
IO.NET Team
- Mar 9, 2026

TL;DR * Infrastructure gap: Don’t get stuck on a 6-month waitlist for Blackwell chips at hyperscalers. With io.net, you get instant B200/H200 access. * Cost performance: Get 50-70% lower costs compared to AWS/GCP on-demand rates. * Hardware Versatility: io.net offers a full mix of GPUS including Nvidia chips and high-VRAM AMD MI300X clusters (192GB memory) for large-scale Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) training. * Quality Assurance: We verify all hardware via zkTFLOPs (Proof-of-Contribution) and

The state of AI cloud infrastructure

For infrastructure decision-makers at both startups and growing companies, the GPU landscape of 2026 looks nothing like it did even last year. The mad dash for GPU capacity has now matured into a $60B+ global market defined by architectural diversity, pricing pressure, and a fundamental reevaluation of how compute should be provisioned.  As these three forces converge, we are seeing GPU supply expand. While hyperscaler buildouts capture a lot of attention, there has also been a rise in decentra

io.net on Solana: The place for DePIN in 2026 and beyond
IO.NET Team
- Mar 2, 2026

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
