PANews reported on November 28th that, according to Forbes, Bitfury Group, a leading global cryptocurrency mining company, recently completed a $12 million strategic investment in Gonka.ai, a decentralized AI computing network, purchasing 20 million GNK tokens at $0.60 each. Gonka.ai, founded by serial entrepreneurs the Lieberman brothers, aims to build a blockchain-based distributed GPU computing power market. This investment is Bitfury's first publicly disclosed investment since establishing its $1 billion ethical AI fund, indicating that traditional mining companies are systematically deploying in the decentralized AI infrastructure sector. According to publicly available data, Gonka has over 5,000 NVIDIA H100 series GPUs equivalent to its computing power across its network, and supports nearly 20 mainstream AI devices, including the 3080, 4090, H100, and H200, forming a distributed computing power cluster. This is expected to break the monopoly of NVIDIA and cloud service providers and significantly reduce AI development costs. As previously reported, Gonka completed an $18 million funding round in 2023, with investors including OpenAI investor Coatue Management, Solana investor Slow Ventures, K5, Insight, and several partners from Benchmark. Early contributors also include several well-known industry institutions such as 6 Block, Hard Yaka, Gcore, and Hyperfusion.PANews reported on November 28th that, according to Forbes, Bitfury Group, a leading global cryptocurrency mining company, recently completed a $12 million strategic investment in Gonka.ai, a decentralized AI computing network, purchasing 20 million GNK tokens at $0.60 each.
