Tianrong Internet Products and Services, Inc. has launched its native utility token, $DEPIN, on the Raydium Launchpad platform on the Solana blockchain. This token launch represents a strategic expansion into decentralized physical infrastructure networks and the artificial intelligence inference sector, following the company's announcement earlier this month of its AI Inference Marketplace initiative under the DEPINfer brand.
The $DEPIN token serves as the core utility token powering DEPINfer, a decentralized AI inference marketplace that aggregates underutilized GPUs from gaming PCs, workstations, and data centers worldwide. By enabling individuals and organizations to rent out idle hardware, the platform aims to deliver scalable, cost-effective AI inference and training capabilities. The company estimates this approach could reduce costs by 50-80% compared to centralized cloud providers while eliminating vendor lock-in and supply constraints that have plagued the AI industry.
Key utilities of the $DEPIN token include payments for submitting inference jobs, settling micropayments to GPU providers, and rewarding contributors based on compute power shared and jobs completed. Token holders also gain governance rights to participate in decentralized decision-making and vote on platform upgrades. The marketplace incorporates a revenue model with 5-10% transaction fees, with portions directed toward token buybacks, burns, ecosystem development, and sustainable rewards for participants.
The token launch followed a community-focused fair launch model with 60% of the total supply allocated to the bonding curve for public participation through platforms like https://raydium.io/launchpad/token/?mint=GCyTkEDd239AvEDMR2HbuoxHNzQAh6mSxd4Kcudjiray&lreferrer=5HA3cyVQtmn8KxK9AkqrvKEVj5kr1KqNEz2jtYXz4aNY. This approach ensures broad early distribution while reserving the remaining 40% for migrated liquidity, vested team allocations, and long-term incentives such as provider rewards and community airdrops. The project targets migration to full Raydium automated market maker liquidity pools upon reaching specific thresholds, providing stable trading and deeper market access for participants.
This development positions the company at the intersection of two rapidly growing markets: AI inference, projected to reach $106 billion by 2030, and decentralized compute, expected to reach $10-15 billion in the same timeframe. By leveraging Solana's high-throughput blockchain infrastructure, which has proven successful for other DePIN projects, the initiative aims to create a global sharing economy for GPU compute resources. The company will provide ongoing updates on bonding curve progress, platform milestones, and partnerships through official channels including https://depinfer.mobirisesite.com/.
The implications of this announcement extend across multiple sectors. For AI developers and researchers, the platform promises more affordable access to computational resources, potentially accelerating innovation in artificial intelligence. For GPU owners, it creates new revenue streams from otherwise idle hardware. For the broader technology industry, it represents a shift toward decentralized infrastructure models that could challenge traditional cloud computing providers and democratize access to critical computational resources. The initiative also bridges traditional OTC markets with cutting-edge blockchain infrastructure, representing a convergence of financial and technological innovation.
