ETHTaipei|GAIB focuses on "GPU bond tokenization", revolutionizing the investment threshold for enterprise-level AI Computing Power.
With the global development of AI reaching a fever pitch, the "Computing Power" that underpins it has quickly become the new battleground for the next wave of technological competition. The innovative AiFi project GAIB, which focuses on tokenizing bond assets to package corporate GPU Computing Power, has launched an innovative financing solution to provide cloud data centers with a more flexible and efficient source of funding than traditional bank loans.
GAIB not only targets the industry side but also significantly lowers the investment threshold, allowing retail investors to directly participate in the economic benefits of AI infrastructure. Retail investors are no longer limited to buying tech stocks like NVIDIA (, AMD, etc., as "observers."
Compared to DePIN projects like io.net and Aethir that emphasize the sharing of Computing Power resources, GAIB's strategy is more about commodifying AI Computing Power as a financial asset. This time, GAIB also appeared at ETHTaipei and set up a sponsorship booth to showcase the latest progress and application scenarios of the project to the developer community.
GAIB provides retail investors with direct participation in AI infrastructure earnings and also offers refinancing channels for cloud and GPU operators.
If investors want to participate in the growth dividends of AI infrastructure, they can only purchase tech stocks like NVIDIA ), AMD, Intel, etc. However, this method has a high threshold, lacks transparency, and cannot directly touch the economic benefits behind AI Computing Power.
The emergence of GAIB is precisely to address this issue. By tokenizing the earnings generated from enterprise-level GPU Computing Power, it allows general retail investors to participate in the AI Computing Power economy with a lower capital threshold. At the same time, it provides refinancing channels for cloud and GPU operators.
The GAIB operating model packages high-end GPU Computing Power into bonds and invests using Tokens.
The business model of GAIB is not simply to slice GPU Computing Power into small pieces and then package and sell it with Tokens, but rather:
Packaging through "bonds"
Package the future earnings ownership of enterprise-level GPU Computing Power into an emerging asset class AI Synthetic Dollar (AID)
Users can stake AID, like holding "GPU income bonds".
Investors can hold Tokens to earn profits from GPU rentals and computing services.
Simply put, it is like "income bonds" in traditional financial markets. But what is more special is that GAIB has moved the entire transaction investment and clearing process to the chain, and with the advantages of blockchain transparency and decentralization, it has lowered the capital threshold for users to enter large-scale AI infrastructure.
Successfully raised $5 million, led by Hack VC and Hashed
GAIB completed its seed round financing at the end of 2024, raising 5 million USD, led by well-known organizations in the blockchain and AI sectors, including Hack VC, Hashed, The Spartan Group, Faction, and Animoca Brands.
In February of this year, we also collaborated with the DePIN cloud computing power platform Aethir to complete the first GPU bond tokenization pilot on the BNB Chain, raising $100,000 in just 10 minutes.
The image shows the fundraising list behind GAIB, highlighting the differences between io.net and Aethir, the leasing platform, and investment products.
Currently, mainstream DePIN projects in the market, such as io.net and Aethir, mostly focus on establishing GPU resource sharing, matching, and leasing platforms, allowing suppliers to provide idle Computing Power to demanders, with an emphasis on efficiency and resource flexibility.
GAIB does not provide platform services or participate in computing power matchmaking, but directly cooperates with AI infrastructure and cloud operators to securitize GPU computing power and design it as a yield token, allowing investors to participate in the GPU computing power economy in a similar way to buying bonds.
GAIB focuses on "GPU earnings combined with national bonds," creating the Computing Power earnings coin AID.
GAIB also announced the launch of AID on 3/20, which is the AI Computing Power Revenue Coin (AI Synthetic Dollar), and AID is supported by the following asset combinations:
Enterprise-level GPU financing agreements: such as Computing Power leasing contracts
Cash flow from GPU usage: AI model training costs
US Treasury Bonds ( and other low-risk assets
Other highly liquid financial instruments
One dollar comes in, one AID token is minted, avoiding decoupling.
GAIB adopts a "anchoring and burning" mechanism, allowing the issuance quantity of AID to be flexibly adjusted according to asset conditions:
If 1 dollar enters the GAIB protocol, or the GPU portfolio generates 1 dollar in revenue, 1 AID will be minted.
Conversely, whenever an investor receives a profit of 1 dollar, 1 AID will be destroyed.
GAIB indicates that this will allow the market value of AID to synchronize with the value of its underlying assets, making it less likely to experience decoupling and crashes.
GAIB launches the sAID staking mechanism, allowing you to earn AI returns while retaining liquidity.
GAIB has also launched the sAID staking mechanism to allow investors to participate in earnings without affecting liquidity:
Holders can choose to stake AID into the GAIB protocol to receive sAID.
sAID acts like a revenue certificate, holding sAID will earn returns based on the income from the GPU investment portfolio.
Moreover, investors can exchange sAID back to AID at any time without worrying about their funds being locked.
This allows AID to directly correspond to the growth benefits of AI infrastructure.
Starting in Q2 2025, it will land on multiple main chains, including Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Arbitrum.
GAIB stated that AID will be launched on the following main chain in the second quarter of 2025:
Ethereum
BNB Chain
Arbitrum
Story Protocol
Base
GAIB will expand to more chains in the future, aiming to allow global DeFi users to easily obtain and utilize AID, directly participating in the growth of the AI Computing Power economy and cash profits, while also providing refinancing channels for cloud service providers and GPU providers.
