Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePin) are transforming the tech by enabling decentralized projects in real-world infrastructure.
Here’s what happened in DePin sector recently: Aethir partnered with LayerZero to support blockchain development, The Graph announced a new GRC-20 standard for Web3 data, and Barry Silbert’s DCG launched the Yuma ecosystem accelerator.
Aethir Integrates LayerZero
Aethir, the DePin “GPU-as-a-service” network, recently announced a new partnership with LayerZero to support blockchain development. Specifically, Aethir claimed that this partnership will transform the company into a “multichain AI and gaming ecosystem.” This investment aligns with Aethir’s other recent collaborations for AI-centric game development.
“With the help of LayerZero, Aethir’s DePIN stack will transition to a multichain network infrastructure, which will ease the Aethir GPU infrastructure’s upcoming migration to Sophon’s ZK chain. LayerZero’s omnichain technology will maintain network stability [while] ensuring a frictionless experience for the Aethir community,” the company’s blog post claimed.
Although Aethir’s core business model is ostensibly a DePin GPU network, the firm has been heavily investing into AI gaming development. Last month, it launched a $100 million ecosystem fund to support independent developers in this sector. Earlier today, it also announced DePin Stack integration to further optimize its cloud gaming services.
