Pinlink Cuts Out Big Tech Middlemen—Decentralized AI Compute Goes Grassroots
Pinlink Cuts Out Big Tech Middlemen—Decentralized AI Compute Goes Grassroots
18
1
Forget waiting in line for overpriced cloud GPUs—Pinlink’s peer-to-peer network turns idle gaming rigs into AI powerhouses. The protocol matches underutilized hardware with machine learning startups desperate for affordable compute.
How it works: Token incentives lure hardware owners to rent out their systems. Smart contracts automate payments—no Amazon Web Services markup, no centralized choke points. Early tests show 40% cost savings versus traditional providers (though crypto volatility might nibble those gains).
The catch? Decentralized means unpredictable uptime. But for bootstrapped AI teams, that’s a gamble worth taking—especially when VCs are hoarding NVIDIA chips like Wall Street hoards tax loopholes.
