Aethir EcoDrop: New Batch of Benefits for Our Community

The Aethir ecosystem is growing daily, with a constant inflow of new partners across the AI, machine learning, gaming, and DePIN sectors. With more than 100 active partnerships, our ecosystem represents a vibrant community of innovative platforms and projects that are moving the boundaries of Web3 creativity and introducing revolutionary products and services to users worldwide. Aethir's DePIN stack is the common ground for all of our ecosystem partners because each one leverages our decentralized cloud infrastructure to some extent in their day-to-day operations. As a sign of gratitude and appreciation for the Aethir community, more and more of our partners are introducing exclusive benefits for our community.

That's because Aethir's most loyal community members are Checker Node holders and stakers, who contribute to the stability and daily operations of the Aethir GPU cloud infrastructure. Consequently, our partners rely on our community's support to ensure a steady, streamlined flow of raw GPU computing power from our network of 3000+ NVIDIA H100s and 80,000+ additional top-shelf GPUs. As a reminder, the Aethir DePIN stack has over 91,000 Checker Nodes responsible for maintaining our GPU network's operational efficiency and quality of service. At the same time, stakers play a pivotal role in contributing to the overall stability of our ATH token. That's why numerous partners from the Aethir ecosystem are introducing special rewards for our community.

In the previous round of Aethir EcoDrop, multiple high-profile partners announced rewards for our community members. In July's EcoDrop, five new ecosystem partners are joining the fun and showing massive appreciation for the Aethir community. 

Which Partners Are Introducing Benefits for the Aethir Community?

The number of partners introducing unique benefits and rewards for the Aethir community is constantly growing. In this round of Aethir EcoDrop, five partners are announcing rewards for our loyal Aethirians: Astra Nova, dFusion AI, easeflow, iAgent, and Inferium.

‍Astra Nova is a unique Web3 Action RPG title from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that pushes the boundaries of blockchain-based gaming. Players are introduced to a vast, interactive world rich in epic fantasy powered by the Unreal 5 engine. The game features third-person combat, character upgrades, and breathtaking visuals, all crafted to deliver an unparalleled gaming experience. Astra Nova contains five distinct worlds, each with its own unique characteristics, offering a rich, open-world environment for heroic journeys and adventures.

‍dFusion AI is a protocol that creates community-driven, networked sources of truth with powerful economic incentives. The dFusion Protocol governs AI through Knowledge Mining, which leverages decentralized, community-run nodes to nominate new knowledge topics per the protocol constitution to enter the designated knowledge pool. Higher tier nodes will have higher rights to nominate knowledge. dFusion is building a non-biased AI ecosystem powered by community governance and ownership through this mechanism and directly rewarding active participants. 

‍easeflow's expertise in running blockchain infrastructure, with a special focus on setting up and running decentralized nodes, makes them the go-to choice for many popular Web3 projects, including Aethir. They specialize in providing users with a one-click solution for running nodes without any technical knowledge requirements on the user's side. easeflow is designed to enable users of all experience levels to run their nodes easily and sit back while earning node operator rewards.

‍iAgent is a practical AI training platform enabling gamers to train their AI Agents from gameplay footage, thus creating innovative gaming assets powered by machine learning algorithms. iAgent's mission is to democratize gaming by creating Agents as digital assets on the blockchain and providing all gamers with the tools and infrastructure to easily train their Agents. AI Agents represent players' gaming strategies, styles, and creativity, a digital representation of their gaming persona.

‍Inferium's innovative AI solutions make it a pioneer machine learning-driven intelligent store and aggregator for AI inference. Inferium empowers developers to seamlessly verify, list, and employ inference on their AI models while users gain streamlined access to the most optimal model through aggregation. These models are powered by tailored, intensive inference, focusing on meticulous human-driven evaluation.

Empowering Next-Level Web3 Innovators With Aethir's DePIN Stack

Aethir's decentralized cloud infrastructure is built to provide AI, gaming, and other Web3 enterprises with a reliable source of supreme-quality GPU cloud computing services. All our partners in need of cloud computing at scale can rest assured that Aethir's DePIN stack is up to the task of servicing their needs 24/7, regardless of physical location. 

Astra Nova is an excellent example of how Aethir's decentralized GPU network is essential in facilitating smooth, frictionless cloud gaming experiences. Their gaming audience is located primarily in the Middle Eastern and SEA regions, where leading centralized cloud providers struggle to provide large-scale, low-latency services. However, by leveraging Aethir's distributed GPU infrastructure, millions of players across these regions can easily access Astra Nova's game and enjoy a lag-free immersive cloud gaming experience. 

dFusion AI, iAgent, and Inferium all leverage Aethir's GPU network to facilitate complex, highly demanding AI workloads across all node operators. All three of these innovative AI projects use vast amounts of GPU computing power for different purposes within their respective sectors of the AI industry. This shows that Aethir's distributed GPU network isn't built purposely for one set of AI workloads. Instead, our GPU infrastructure is capable of powering all types of AI platforms, thus being a key factor in supporting evolution and creativity in AI development.

easeflow doesn't use Aethir's network for cloud computing. Instead, they are a key Nodes-as-a-Service (NaaS) provider for our Checker Node holders, allowing them to easily set up their nodes and start earning Checker Node operator rewards. Thanks to their role as one of the official NaaS providers in the Aethir ecosystem, easeflow can be considered an extended part of the Aethir DePIN stack by powering Checker Nodes that maintain the Aethir network's daily operations.

Ecosystem Partner Rewards for the Aethir Community

Aethir EcoDrop participants always bring exciting benefits and rewards to the Aethir community. All of the partners we've listed above will be rewarding the Aethir community through airdrops of their native tokens, while dFusion AI will also provide staking rewards to ATH stakers by contributing a certain amount of their tokens to Aethir's staking pools.

While the announcement of these benefits and rewards is official, additional details will be announced closer to the launch dates of the native tokens of each of our listed partners. Currently, we can't provide our community with any further details regarding eligibility, exact reward amounts, or realization timelines. All of these details are up to the discretion of our partners.

The best way to stay informed about important details regarding Aethir EcoDrop rewards and benefits is to closely follow our official X account, as well as the accounts of our ecosystem partners. 

Remember, the exclusive ecosystem benefits and rewards for the Aethir community just keep coming. While Aethir Checker Node licenses aren't available for sale anymore, you can still join the community as an ATH staker and secure both ATH rewards and a portion of the Aethir EcoDrop staking rewards from our partners.
