Frequently asked questions
What is Nodepay?
Nodepay is a decentralized bandwidth sharing protocol where users contribute unused internet bandwidth to power AI training tasks.
How does Nodepay work?
Users install a plugin or application that routes unused bandwidth to the network, which is then utilized by AI developers for distributed model training and inference.
What problem does Nodepay solve?
It addresses the high cost and centralization of bandwidth required for AI development by leveraging a global, decentralized network of individual contributors.
What is Nodepay connected to?
In the DeFi Intel knowledge graph, Nodepay is linked most strongly to Solana (the chain it runs on) and Grass, a competing DePIN bandwidth network. Investors include IDG Capital, Jump Crypto and Animoca Brands.
