Bluwhale Aims To Decentralize AI by Tapping Into Seven Billion Smartphones Through Its Node Sale

San Francisco, California

Bluwhale is scaling its AI network on the blockchain, empowering individuals to monetize and contribute data, storage and compute power from idle smartphone capacity.

Bluwhale – an AI Web 3.0 startup that leverages smartphones as nodes to connect users on-chain for targeted outreach and communication from enterprises and receive rewards – has announced its node sale.

The private and public node sale started in October and runs through the end of November 2024.

The node sale will empower early adopters to contribute data, future storage and compute to Bluwhale’s AI network through their smartphones, starting with data verification tasks.

Han Jin, CEO and co-founder of Bluwhale, said,

“Entering the Web 3.0 space and assessing its ambitions of adopting AI made me question the current state of technical feasibility.

“While in Web 2.0, most AI infrastructure residing on Google Cloud or AWS provides the whole suite of data, compute and storage components, in Web 3.0,  these components are spread across multiple companies.

“If we truly want to decentralize AI, we need to think more radically about orchestrating data, storage and compute all in one – thus, Bluwhale is doubling down on mobile devices.”

With the recent launch of the iPhone 16, we see more and more smartphone makers add compute power on devices to run AI for various applications from day one.

However, a normal consumer is leaving significant compute power idle. Bluwhale’s vision is to enable the individual to control, monetize and govern AI in a decentralized network.

The mobile device is an excellent outlet to do so as it has your data, plus storage and compute, to add into the network – all three critical to scale AI.

While Bluwhale’s master nodes will initially focus only on one part – data verification – the future roadmap for unlocking capabilities will be grand.

This limited time node sale opens new future possibilities for scaling an AI network with all three required components at once – data, storage and compute.

By participating in the node sale, Bluwhale users can generate passive income on their smartphones by keeping the app running behind the scenes, as well as contribute data and potentially storage and compute in the near future.

Anyone with more than 500 BLUAI points can stake them to operate the master nodes on mobile while there are three seasons of airdrops allocated for all node owners.
