Getting started with AETRON
The network has four roles, and each one enters differently. Pick the one that fits you and follow the steps.
Four paths
The roles do not exclude each other: a Neuronet owner can mine in someone else’s, and a miner can stake AET. Start with whichever is closest to what you already have.
Launch your own AI service
Assemble a Neuronet in the Constructor and call it from your product through an OpenAI-compatible endpoint. You choose the model and the tasks, the network provides the compute, and every answer carries a proof that the declared model produced it.
Contribute your compute
Put your GPU to work on network tasks and earn AET for results that pass verification. NVIDIA, AMD, Apple Silicon and even CPU all qualify.
Connect to the blockchain
Read balances, stake and Neuronet state straight from the chain. A public entry point works out of the box; your own node reads it independently and is the only way to verify state without trusting anyone.
What you will need
The minimum set is the same whichever path you take.
A wallet
A key pair for working with the network. The coldkey holds funds, the hotkey signs work.
Some AET
The token covers transaction fees, miner registration and stake. How it is issued is laid out in the tokenomics.
Blockchain Explorer
Watch blocks, transactions and Neuronet state live, before you commit to anything.
Still deciding?
The Constructor is open and looking around costs nothing. If your case does not fit any of the four paths, get in touch.
