FAQ

What is Aethir?

Aethir is a decentralized, enterprise-grade cloud computing network that provides scalable and globally distributed GPU resources for AI, gaming, and Web3 infrastructure.

The network has seen exponential growth, surpassing $147 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) and expanding its GPU container capacity nearly tenfold in just six months to over 435k GPUs.

Aethir is leading the way with over 1.6m on-chain transactions and 1.3B+ compute hours already delivered. By leveraging a decentralized model, Aethir ensures cost efficiency, reliability, and accessibility for high-performance computing needs across industries.

Backed by leading Web3 investors like Framework Ventures, Merit Circle, Hashkey, Animoca Brands, Sanctor Capital, Infinity Ventures Crypto (IVC), and others, with over $140M in funds raised for the ecosystem, Aethir is paving the way for the future of decentralized computing.

How does Aethir work?

In the Aethir ecosystem, "Containers," "Indexers," and "Checkers" have distinct roles:

• Containers: They are fundamental units within Aethir, serving as virtual endpoints where cloud-based applications are executed and rendered. Their purpose is to ensure an immediate and responsive cloud experience, effectively shifting the workload from local devices to the Container.

• Indexers: These act as connectors within the network, optimizing the match between users and Containers. They prioritize based on service fee, experience, and overall evaluation, aiming to minimize latency and ensure high-quality rendering.

• Checkers: Their role is to maintain the integrity and performance of Containers. They verify container specifications and monitor performance during active rendering, ensuring the network's Quality of Service. This involves checks at various stages, including registration and during rendering.

These components work together to ensure Aethir's distributed cloud infrastructure operates efficiently and meets its performance standards.

What Blockchain is Aethir built on?

The token will be launched as "ERC-20" on the Ethereum Network. Currently, the Checker, IDC, and Edge rewards are distributed on Arbitrum Network.

Is Aethir audited?

Aethir has been audited by Certik.

What is ATH's main token utility?

• Governance: ATH token holders can vote to decide on governance decisions

• Staking: Aethir containers stake ATH for their computing power to earn future ATH rewards

• Medium of Exchange: Developers pay ATH tokens for service fees to get computing power from containers

• Liquidity and Collateral: ATH tokens can be used as native liquidity and collateral in the Aethir ecosystem
