Episode 178: Swarm Inference
"We want you to be able to sell your compute for bitcoin doing nothing but clicking this button."
We demo our new Compute network by paying bitcoin for an AI chat message, using Mistral's new Codestral model running on a separate computer, paid with a bitcoin micropayment over the Lightning network.
Our compute provider, running Commander v0.0.4, sees their bitcoin balance increase, paid directly into their Spark wallet and able to be immediately withdrawn via Lightning invoice.
The peer communication uses Nostr via NIP-90, the open protocol for 'data vending machines' enabling 'money in, data out' for a wide variety of services.
We begin with LLM inference but can soon extend to any service added by any service provider, all permissionless & extensible.
Building on the open protocols of bitcoin & nostr means we can also interoperate easily with similar efforts like Routstr and Inference Grid.
"Let's build a global compute marketplace with inference and all these things, fully decentralized, using bitcoin."
