Sogni AI's mainnet launch empowers open-source generative AI models through a permissionless GPU-worker network. This significant development simultaneously deploys across Base, currently the leading Ethereum-compatible Layer-2 blockchain, and Etherlink, another EVM-compatible Layer-2 leveraging Tezos Smart Rollups. The dual deployment ensures broad reach, leveraging Base's extensive ecosystem and simultaneously connecting with the innovative communities within the Tezos network.
The decentralized creative AI platform's transition to the mainnet coincides with the imminent launch of Base Aerodrome and Etherlink IguanaDEX. Crucially, the SOGNI utility token will debut on prominent centralized exchanges, Kraken, MEXC, and Gate.io, at 12 PM UTC on July 2nd, providing immediate and substantial exchange liquidity. This strategic move allows creators to submit rendering tasks via three production-ready decentralized applications (dApps): Sogni Web, Sogni Pocket, and Sogni Studio. Workers, in turn, receive SOGNI tokens as compensation for their computational contributions.
SOGNI, the utility token fueling Sogni Supernet's rendering infrastructure, serves multiple crucial roles. It compensates artists and node operators (referred to as "Workers"), unlocks access to advanced app features, and facilitates governance and staking. The platform employs a dual-token model, strategically catering to both crypto-native users seeking decentralization and ownership, and Web2 users prioritizing ease of use and performance. The fully transferable SOGNI token, operating on-chain, governs the platform, enables rendering, and unlocks premium functionalities. In contrast, in-app purchase credits or earned render credits maintain a fixed, non-transferable value.
The exchange listings represent a cornerstone of a user-owned creative economy, strengthening the mainnet launch and its associated wallet integration. This integrated approach not only allows for seamless transactions but significantly empowers creators and users alike, bolstering the overall ecosystem's financial health and sustainability.
