IMO, Compute Finance is one of the more interesting ideas coming out of 0G rn.
Infinite AI turns locked $0G into a scarce asset with compute credits attached, rather than relying solely on emissions.
Versus $VVV-backed DIEM, iAI launches with 9,270 total supply versus 40,000 DIEM, with $0G as the locked collateral asset.
The unlock delay also gives the refreshed $0G model a cleaner setup, tbh.
The real question is whether demand for compute can become a more durable driver than pure token incentives.
Introducing Compute Finance (ComFi).
A financial layer for AI where digital assets don't just sit idle. They can pay for AI compute you actually use, in 0G Private Computer (100+ models) and the 0G App.
Ascend is live. Infinite AI is scheduled for Sept 29.
