what's Nosana?
Nosana is a decentralized, open-source GPU computing marketplace built on the Solana blockchain, specializing in AI inference workloads. Users can supply idle GPU resources to the network, run AI applications, and earn rewards through the protocol's incentive mechanisms. The platform enables developers and businesses to access scalable, affordable GPU compute without centralized providers, using containerized jobs deployed via a grid of community nodes. It integrates with Solana for fast, low-cost transactions and emphasizes security and efficiency in AI model deployment.
Nosana Kit's v2.0 SDK upgrade features universal wallet support, rebuilt Solana pipeline, and enhanced testing.
