Recently, I came across an interesting thing— a major chip manufacturer actually started building a blockchain network. Honestly, there are so many projects claiming to be big industry players in the market now that it's hard not to be cautious at first glance.



But I took some time to look at the public information about this project, and I was genuinely impressed. It's called NVIDIA Compute Network, abbreviated as NCN, with a supporting token called NVAI, currently in the pre-sale stage.

What left a deep impression on me was their approach—this is a technically driven project, not just a concept packaging. The core logic is as follows: after a graphics card connects to the network, it doesn't just run idle to make its presence known, but actually performs AI computation tasks, whether it's model training, inference, or generation. The system records the actual amount of computation completed and then rewards contributors based on their contribution. They call this mechanism Proof of Compute.

Unlike traditional mining that purely consumes hash power, this is closer to exchanging computing power for services, and then exchanging services for value. From a design perspective, the entire system is at least self-consistent, unlike those projects that are artificially pieced together just to issue tokens.

That said, once such projects pass the early information disclosure stage, ordinary people can usually only access the final results. My personal attitude has always been quite conservative—no heavy holdings, no impulsiveness, just understanding what they are really doing before the deadline. If you're interested, you can look into the specific details yourself.
