Aevir launches with 100% fair distribution model for decentralized AI economy

Aevir has opened its decentralized AI protocol to the public, introducing a model that rewards users for contributing computing power and knowledge through its system.

Aevir, a decentralized collective intelligence protocol, officially opens to the global community today. Through its proprietary Proof of Intelligent Contribution (PoIC) consensus mechanism, Aevir distributes the value of data and intelligence directly to contributors.

The shift in AI value networks

Artificial intelligence is undergoing a transition from centralized cloud infrastructure to distributed edge computing. As generative AI applications have expanded across real-time assistance and personalized content creation, the computational center of gravity is shifting from centralized cloud services to personal AI devices under user control, such as AI PCs and workstations.

This shift has created an emerging market where users are potential direct participants and builders of AI value networks. The challenge now is how to effectively coordinate globally distributed personal AI resources and data while ensuring fair distribution of the value they generate.

Aevir’s solution: The PoIC consensus mechanism

Aevir introduces the Proof of Intelligent Contribution (PoIC) consensus mechanism. Unlike traditional consensus models focused solely on computing power or capital, PoIC identifies, quantifies and incentivizes all forms of effective value creation within the ecosystem, establishing a dual-track value engine driven by computational contribution and knowledge contribution.

First pillar: Computational contribution, transforming personal computing centers into value nodes

To ensure high-quality, stable and efficient computational contributions to the network, Aevir has developed a dedicated AI training hardware series. The inaugural product, NEU-X AI Station, features AMD Ryzen AI Max 300 series processors with AI engine performance reaching 126 TOPS. This metric directly relates to the efficiency of running AI large language models or image generation models locally, making it a productivity tool for contributors to participate in the network and execute high-value computational tasks.

Aevir employs a 100% fair launch token model. All network-generated incentives are distributed entirely to intelligent contributors, both computational and knowledge contributors, with no allocation reserved for teams or investors. This design, integrating software and hardware with a clear economic model, transforms the NEU-X AI Station from mere hardware into productive capital with a defined return pathway.

Users with Aevir-dedicated devices can connect them as specialized nodes to the network, executing two types of critical tasks coordinated by the PoIC protocol: 

AI model training: Contributors’ devices utilize high-quality data generated from the knowledge marketplace, employing privacy-preserving technologies such as federated learning to securely train and optimize Aevir’s global AI models locally, or to train users’ own digital agents. PoIC evaluates contribution value based on how submitted model updates improve overall performance. 

Ecosystem consensus maintenance: Contributors’ devices leverage their high-performance computing power to verify and curate knowledge data generated by the community, using algorithms to combat malicious behavior, ensure content quality and maintain the health and trustworthiness of the entire ecosystem.

Second pillar: Knowledge contribution, an open source of collective intelligence

Aevir’s primary knowledge source and key participation pathway is the Knowledge Market. Anyone can contribute to collective intelligence by posing substantive questions or providing high-quality, verified answers. This human intelligence, once validated by the community, is organized into structured datasets for training more precise and capable AI models, addressing the current scarcity of high-quality data.

The PoIC mechanism employs algorithms including reputation-weighted voting and content citation tracking to accurately assess the long-term value of each knowledge contribution, crediting it fairly to contributors’ scores to ensure transparent and equitable compensation.

Through this dual-pillar design, Aevir creates a value generation cycle: general users contribute knowledge data, hardware users contribute computational power, jointly advancing AI capabilities while ensuring all participants benefit continuously.

Building a decentralized intelligence economy

Aevir leverages PoIC to aggregate knowledge and computational power, building a fully participant-owned, composable decentralized intelligence economy that spans the complete workflow from model training and application development to agent economies. Within Aevir, the entire process, whether creating, owning, contributing or governing, is incentivized and interconnected through tokens.

The project launches with 100% fair distribution: no private sales, no team allocation. All tokens are distributed solely through the PoIC mechanism to actual contributors, genuinely returning network ownership to its builders.

Aevir’s official X and Discord are now open, welcoming AI training specialists, researchers, decentralized builders and other early contributors to join.
