GPUNet Activates the Compute Layer for Creators, Validators, and Infrastructure Providers

Dubai, UAE, June 24, 2025

GPUNet has launched a fullstack compute-native Layer 1 blockchain, already live with GPU infrastructure, daily activity, and thousands of contributors. Built without token allocations to insiders or advisors, the network is driven entirely by participants who stake, provide compute, or build applications through subnets.

With over 1,500 subnets deployed, 250,000 daily active users, and $10 million revenue generated in 2024, GPUNet is showing what a decentralized, performance-first blockchain can look like at launch.

GANChain Secures Every Transaction, Node, and Subnet

GPUNet is already running workloads for AI, gaming, and tools through its GPU marketplace, where users pay for compute using the $GPU token. Providers from around the world rent out GPU power—such as H100s, A100s, and 4090s—at significantly lower cost than traditional cloud services.

The base layer, GANChain, is a hybrid Proof-of-Work and Proof-of-Stake blockchain that manages this compute marketplace with an integrated token economy.

Subnets as the App Layer

The subnet layer enables anyone to launch a purpose-driven appchain that earns block rewards and transaction fees based on usage. No proposals or grants needed—users can launch their own compute-based app, earn rewards in $GPU, and grow their communities.

Over 1,500 subnets have already launched, ranging from Telegram bots and dashboards to agentic AI tools and game mechanics. The architecture opens the door for builders, marketers, communities, and even node operators to plug into the same incentive layer.

Tokenomics With No Insider Share

GPUNet’s standout decision was to allocate 0% of the token supply to the team, advisors, or insiders. Instead, the distribution model emphasizes:

• 80% of total supply reserved for validators, subnets, GPU providers, and contributors
• Buybacks directly tied to protocol revenue
• $4M in buybacks already completed in 2024
• Early investors from 2022–2023 were paid back in full USDT, at 2–3x return, with no vesting
• $500K+ in protocol rewards distributed to node holders

Highlights as of June 2025

• $10M revenue generated in 2024
• 250,000+ daily active users
• 1,500+ subnets deployed
• 426 Queen Validators and 294 active validators
• 66 active GPU providers
• Over 6,000+ node holders
• $GPU now trading live on Ethereum
• GANChain Bridges Now Live with Ethereum and Base.

A Growing Infrastructure Layer

GPUNet isn’t just a chain, it’s building physical infrastructure through partnerships across three major regions:

• UAE: Partnered with G42, a major AI data center provider (part-owned by Microsoft), powering workloads with petaflops-scale NVIDIA GPUs and regional integration.
• Europe: Working with Northern Data, backed by Tether, to expand compute nodes with high uptime and advanced cooling.
• Asia: Linked with Yotta and CDAC, two of the largest players in India’s supercomputing landscape, as well as NTT and Bytedance for extended integrations.

This cross-region setup positions GPUNet as one of the only decentralized compute networks actively deployed in enterprise-grade data centers.

Why Now Matters

AI infrastructure is becoming one of the most contested and valuable layers in global technology. Oracle’s recent $40B hardware order for OpenAI—and a similar Stargate buildout in the UAE—shows the direction: more compute, fewer access points.

GPUNet offers an open alternative. Anyone with GPUs can earn by contributing to the network. Anyone with an idea can launch a subnet. Anyone with a wallet can start staking, building, or renting compute.

$GPU and What You Can Do

The $GPU token powers every interaction on GPUNet:

• Pay for compute (AI inference, tools, graphics rendering)
• Stake and earn as a validator or provider
• Launch or operate a subnet and earn block rewards
• Claim loot crates, participate in quests, and build your reputation
• Use $GPU on future trading platforms like GVEX (coming soon)

With GANChain live and the token already listed on Ethereum, $GPU now anchors the incentive design of an already-operating network.

What’s Coming Next

The roadmap ahead includes:

• GVEX Launch – A native DEX for trading subnet tokens and $GPU
• Liquidity expansion – Launching on Solana, Base, BSC, Sui, and more
• 10K+ Subnets – Target by end of 2025
• Buybacks and Revenue Sharing – Continued growth tied to product usage 

Start a Subnet, No Permissions Needed

If you’re:

• A builder creating a product
• A community managing users
• A contributor helping grow the network
• A whale supporting $GPU liquidity
• A KOL helping spread the word

You don’t need to apply or wait. Launch a subnet. Earn on-chain. Let the community vote and distribute rewards directly through smart contracts.
