Description
Gonka is a decentralized AI infrastructure designed to optimize computational power for AI model training and inference. Its protocol uses a proof-of-compute consensus mechanism so computational resources are directed toward meaningful AI workloads. Developers can build applications and send inference requests through community brokers or self-hosted gateways, while hardware providers contribute GPU resources, operate nodes, serve supported models, and receive GNK rewards. The ecosystem also includes on-chain pricing, wallets, governance, token transfers, and an Ethereum bridge.Grant Funding
