Tianrong Internet Launches DEPINfer Beta - Decentralized GPU Compute Platform

Cloud-based AI inference marketplace powered by $DEPIN token on Solana blockchain

Mar. 17, 2026 at 3:03pm

Tianrong Internet Products and Services Inc. (OTC: TIPS) has announced the beta launch of its DEPINfer website, a cloud-based GPU compute sharing platform built on the Solana blockchain. DEPINfer aims to enable users to contribute excess GPU resources while allowing developers and enterprises to access scalable, on-demand AI inference workloads, leveraging the $DEPIN utility token.

Why it matters

The global AI infrastructure market is projected to reach $1.36 trillion by 2026, with increasing demand for AI compute. DEPINfer seeks to address constraints in centralized data center capacity by offering a decentralized alternative that may deliver cost efficiencies and expand access to compute resources for developers, startups, and enterprises.

The details

The DEPINfer Beta allows users to whitelist, refer GPU providers, stake $DEPIN, and experience real-world inference workloads through the io.net-powered infrastructure layer. This phase focuses on validating referral mechanics, onboarding GPU contributors, and demonstrating the pay-to-earn-govern utility model of $DEPIN ahead of the planned rollout of the proprietary front-end marketplace within the next four weeks.

  • The DEPINfer Beta was officially launched on March 17, 2026.
  • The company plans to roll out its proprietary front-end marketplace within the next four weeks.
