Recently, I've been paying attention to an interesting project direction—directly converting GPU computing power into on-chain assets.



Simply put, it's NVIDIA Compute Network (NCN), with the corresponding token called $NVAI. This isn't your typical AI coin that tells stories; it's genuinely treating graphics card computing power as a trading asset.

The mechanism sounds straightforward: GPUs connect to the network → actual AI computing tasks are assigned → tokens are settled based on contribution once completed. They call this Proof of Compute, with the core logic that computing power is no longer a virtual concept but something that involves real work.

Why do I think this might be different? A few details come together: compatibility with CUDA, RTX, Jetson—NVIDIA's ecosystem; underlying real GPU nodes rather than virtualized compute; auditors like CertiK and OpenZeppelin; a clear roadmap from mainnet to node marketplace; a pre-sale period set very short—this actually says a lot.

These points combined don't seem like a haphazard patchwork.

Honestly, the only issue now is the limited time window. I'm not suggesting to go all-in, but for a project of this scale, missing the early stage means you’re probably just chasing highs or just watching the hype. I’ve participated with a small position mainly because I believe in a long-term direction—AI's underlying infrastructure will inevitably rely on compute power, and NVIDIA is at the core of that.

Regardless, this idea of putting physical resources on-chain is worth spending time to study.

True GPU on-chain is not a new concept; the key is whether it can truly generate cash flow, otherwise it's just a digital game. --- I've seen too many short pre-sale cycles; don't be fooled by the sense of urgency. --- I agree with the direction of tokenizing computing power, but can NVAI survive the bear market? That’s the real question. --- An audit firm's prestige doesn't mean the project is problem-free; history shows us that. --- NVIDIA ecosystem compatibility doesn't guarantee the project's success; there are many pitfalls in the details. --- I want to believe in this system too, but where is the economics model that actually monetizes real computing power? --- Playing with small positions is fine, but don’t expect to get rich overnight. The current market rhythm is completely chaotic. --- Proof of Compute sounds good, but how it will actually be implemented remains uncertain. --- Early participation offers opportunities, but be prepared for losses—the majority of projects end up this way.

Real computing power on the chain is indeed impressive, but with such a complete NVIDIA ecosystem, why does it feel like the buzz isn't that big... CertiK audit is a plus, but a pre-sale with such a short window really doesn’t seem like a project lacking funds. The idea of treating GPUs as trading assets has been thought of a long time ago; the key is whether the node market will pick up. I understand the logic of early participation, just worried it will become another storytelling project, with the main character replaced by graphics cards. Would it be better to compare with Akash or Render? Whose actual application grows faster? Whether to participate in this round depends mainly on whether there will be real task volume in the next three months; otherwise, it’s just another narrative of cutting leeks. The infrastructure for computing power is definitely relevant, but how is the NVAI token designed? Has the inflation model been studied? It feels like in Web3 now, whenever "real resources" are involved, people start to hype it up. We’ll have to wait until it goes live to see what’s real and what’s fake.

Bro, I've seen this logic before. Real GPU tasks are indeed top-notch. If you get in early, you can mostly reap the benefits, it just depends on whether you're brave enough. This kind of proof mechanism is a hundred times better than those air coins. I also grabbed some. Nvidia's ecosystem is really tightly controlled; no one can turn the tide in the short term. I'm not surprised that the pre-sale is so tight; it indicates that there’s definitely something there. The main thing is not to go all-in; small positions and follow the rhythm. That's how it was in the early days—those who can endure often make the most money. Once the time window closes, it's a whole different story, and you should understand that. I'm optimistic about the compute infrastructure line; NVAI is just the entry point.

I will generate 5 comments with different styles, closely resembling real social media interactions: 1. The biggest concern with this kind of thing is it potentially becoming just a front for virtual computing power. It depends on how well it actually performs. 2. Nvidia's ecosystem endorsement is definitely a plus, but the short pre-sale window seems a bit suspicious. 3. The idea of bringing computing power on-chain sounds great, but real-world implementation is the key. Don’t become just another story-telling project. 4. Trying with a small amount is okay, but watching those going all-in makes me nervous for you. 5. I find the real GPU nodes interesting. They’re definitely more reliable than those pure air coins.

The idea of putting real computing power on the chain is indeed innovative, but it depends on whether it can truly be implemented successfully later on. Early participation should still be cautious, although the short time window definitely makes people FOMO. Computing infrastructure is indeed a necessity; I just wonder if it can match NVIDIA's moat. Does this project have backing from major institutions? I feel like we need to observe a bit more.

Wow, this is the real on-chain computing power, not those fake AI concept coins that boast loudly. Interesting, the logic of Proof of Compute is indeed correct; graphics cards are really working and generating value. I noticed the short pre-sale window, which indeed shows that the project team is confident in their product. With CertiK and OpenZeppelin endorsements, and the underlying genuine GPU nodes, this setup doesn’t look like something pieced together temporarily. Long-term, the infrastructure for computing power is definitely the right track; early entry is necessary. But as I always say, try a small position to test the waters, don’t go all in, brother.

The logic of truly on-chain computing power is indeed spot-on, not the virtual air coins type. --- CertiK and OpenZeppelin endorsements, at least not products with zero credibility... their reliability is indeed higher than most AI coins. --- I've seen the tactic of short pre-sale windows before, but this time the audit team lineup is really top-notch. --- The only issue is—can the GPU node market really take off, or will it be another case of a beautiful technical white paper with a very modest reality? --- NVIDIA ecosystem compatibility is well handled, but it feels like projects of this kind ultimately fall behind on network effects. --- I'll try a small position to test the waters; anyway, it's stronger than pure storytelling... mainly betting on the infrastructure big direction. --- I just want to ask, how many nodes are actually willing to use GPUs for this? Or will it just turn into another game where miners cut the leeks? --- Proof of computing power should have been developed long ago; didn't expect NVIDIA's ecosystem to take the lead first.
