More About DeepBrain Chain

DeepBrain Chain is the world’s first AI computing platform driven by blockchain. It uses blockchain technology to help AI companies save up to 70% of computing costs while protecting data privacy in AI training. Its vision is to build a ‘’Decentralized AI Cloud Computing Platform’’ and become ‘’The AWS in AI’’.

It’s committed to becoming an AI public & foundation chain to to provide high-performance computing power and data privacy protection for AI companies and all users with AI needs. AI companies can issue their own tokens on top of DeepBrain Chain and deploy their AI products there. Income of mining nodes in the DeepBrain Chain ecosystem comes in two parts, i.e. system rewards and DBC paid by users for AI computing power.

DeepBrain Chain will invest $100m in the Silicon Valley research center in the next 3 years. After the Mainnet launch, the AI team will continue to push research in distributed AI training on DBC AI clusters (16–128GPU)(Q2’19) and across DBC AI network(Q4’19).

Now we are building up our local communities in North America, Europe, Russia, Korea and Southeast Asia with plans to develop communities in India, Japan, Australia and other countries and regions.

Your support means a lot to us. We look forward to growing with you!
