What is StarMiner?

StarMiner is a decentralized computing infrastructure platform that transforms underutilized GPU resources into a global, permissionless marketplace for high-performance AI computing. It is designed to address one of the most urgent bottlenecks of the digital economy: the growing imbalance between computational demand and available supply.

As AI models become larger and more complex, the cost of accessing enterprise-grade computing infrastructure has skyrocketed. Centralized cloud providers who control the majority of global GPU supply charge prohibitively high fees, with top-tier GPUs costing between $10,000–$30,000 per unit. This excludes developers, startups, researchers, and emerging economies from participating in the AI revolution.

StarMiner solves this by creating an open, blockchain-based network that allows anyone with idle GPU resources whether in data centers, mining farms, or personal rigs to contribute compute to the network and earn rewards. At the same time, users who need compute such as AI developers or scientists can rent this power directly through transparent, market-based pricing.


Key Features:

  1. Three-Layer Architecture:

    • Blockchain Infrastructure Layer: Ensures security, settlement, and identity.

    • Computing Protocol Layer: Handles resource matching, workload distribution, and pricing.

    • Application Layer: Offers APIs, SDKs, analytics tools, and user-friendly interfaces.

  2. Dual-Token Model:

    • AGPU Token: Grants users access to computing power. Its price fluctuates based on usage and availability.

    • AMAX Token: Used for governance, decision-making, and voting on ecosystem development.

  3. Trusted and Sustainable Infrastructure:

    • Powered by over 40,000+ NVIDIA A100/H100 GPUs

    • Backed by compliant data centers and eco-efficient mining operations

    • Integrated with carbon capture systems to meet EU ETS environmental standards

  4. Advanced Resource Allocation Algorithms:

    • StarMiner’s pricing model dynamically adjusts based on real-time network demand, using algorithms inspired by overlay network resource allocation research (e.g., Smith et al. 2008).

    • This allows optimal distribution of workloads while maximizing economic efficiency for both providers and users.


By decentralizing access to compute power, StarMiner unlocks a new frontier of AI innovation, digital ownership, and resource monetization. It serves a wide range of use cases including:

  • AI model training and inference

  • Blockchain smart contract execution

  • 3D rendering and metaverse simulation

  • Scientific research and data analysis

In essence, StarMiner is the decentralized supercomputer for the AI era, built for scale, fairness, and future-proof innovation.
