Render Network

Saw a lot this week at @SolanaConf and one theme kept showing up: decentralized AI

If we want open AI, we need open infrastructure. That means open compute from decentralized training to real-time inference.

That message was clear at last night’s @NousResearch x @SolanaFndn event🧵

Day 2 of @Solanaconf -

If you’re building with AI, #DePIN, or anything GPU-heavy - let’s connect

The GPU nodes waitlist for RNP-019 is now open. Sign up for a chance to join the first cohort of node operators for the Render Compute Network. 

Join the waitlist here: https://t.co/6GX4ZMLJ0B

Safety Note: If you received an email invitation to join this waitlist, it would have come from the https://t.co/9SXhimG8aZ domain.

Beware of potential scams and fraudulent emails impersonating the Render Network Foundation.

We’re at @SolanaConf - Accelerate this week in NYC where the future of #DePIN is being shaped, scaling decentralized applications and services to billions of users!

Jules explains how AI-generated video actually contains latent 3D models - and how @OTOY is working to extract and use them inside Octane, blending neural rendering with artist-controlled pipelines.

Today’s @rendernetwork Space was packed with updates - here’s a quick recap:

- Blender Cycles released
- Octane 2025.1 on Render Network
- Render to AI Generation Released
- Submit work to Render Royale (Deadline = May 25)
- Expansion of RNP-019 Compute Network Coming

Catch the replay:

After extensive Beta testing, support for @Blender Cycles is publicly available on the @rendernetwork, bringing near unlimited high-performance GPU rendering power to the GPU renderer of choice in the world's leading open-source 3D ecosystem.

3D artists! Heard there’s a big Blender update coming out today…

Don’t miss this one.

Set your reminder & tune in today at 11AM PT 👇

RNP-019 has passed, in a 2.9M yes, 7.1K no in the final vote.

It paves the way for an additional Render Compute Network to onboard general compute and AI partners. Thank you to those who participated in the final vote.

Next up: setting up the initial cohort of GPU suppliers, onboarding partners, and inviting prospects to reach out to test their use cases with us.

Stay tuned for what’s next.
