Aethir hasn't had news for a while, turns out they were preparing something big. Today, I'm continuing to track this potential project that I've followed for over a year!

Aethir @AethirMandarin has formed an AI Unbundled alliance, simply put, it's a group of top talents in the Web3 and AI fields teaming up, let's take a look at what this is all about:

Their goal is also very straightforward; starting an AI venture is too difficult now, lacking computing power, data, and tools, small teams simply cannot operate. The alliance aims to integrate all these resources, providing a one-stop solution for AI projects from upstream computing supply, data processing, to downstream product development and market promotion, paving the way for more people to innovate in AI within Web3.

So there must be a leader, right? The decentralized cloud computing big brother Aethir is that leader, bringing together 12 top partners from various fields, including @0G_labs, which is working on decentralized AI operating systems, @iotex_io for on-chain data infrastructure, @Chain_GPT for AI development tools, and more. With hardware + software + data all in place, it can be called the 'Avengers' of Web3 AI!

At this point, some may ask why Aethir is the big brother and not others, so let me share Aethir's advantages.

Speaking of Aethir, those who often follow my tweets should be quite familiar, but some retail investors may find it unfamiliar. However, in the decentralized computing circle, this entity is an invisible giant:

Impressive financial data: In 2024, by selling GPU computing services, the annual recurring revenue (MRR) directly reached $126 million, equivalent to $340,000 daily, which is much more substantial than many projects that just make noise.

Industry position stable: As one of the earliest platforms to layout decentralized computing, Aethir holds a large amount of idle GPU resources globally, providing low-cost computing power to AI developers, essentially serving as the 'electrician' in the Web3 AI world, a necessity among necessities.

Key signal about to be unlocked: this June, Aethir's node lock-up period is coming to an end (nodes staked for one year). As the first indicator of the node secondary market, once unlocked, it may stimulate the market to reassess its value—after all, it is making real money, yet the token price hasn't kept up with performance, showing a clear expectation gap. I believe this is enough to explain!

Next, let's take a look at the strength of the teammates in the alliance. In my opinion, any one of them is a necessity.

This alliance is not just a gathering; each partner is critical in the AI development process:

Computing Power + Infrastructure Group: Aethir provides GPU computing power, @0G_labs provides decentralized AI operating systems, @GEODNET handles real-time transmission of satellite data, and @iotex_io works on DePIN AI blockchain infrastructure, addressing the pain points of 'expensive computing power, slow data, and difficult deployment.'

Tools + Development Group: @flock_io provides a full-stack AI training platform, @Chain_GPT offers Web3 dedicated AI development tools, and @biconomy gives plug-and-play Web3 APIs, allowing developers who may not understand blockchain to quickly build AI applications.

Data + Security Group: @OasisProtocol is doing privacy computing, @PolyhedraZK is working on zero-knowledge proofs, solving privacy and security issues in AI data sharing, which is essential for AI projects in sensitive fields like finance and healthcare.

I think the reasons worth paying attention to are probably three points:

1. Web3 AI will definitely be the next hot spot, no doubt about it. It has long been emphasized that people should focus on AI-related projects: OpenAI and Anthropic have popularized AI. Now Web3 needs its own AI infrastructure—decentralized computing, on-chain data processing, applications that combine AI and blockchain—are all blank markets. The emergence of the alliance is equivalent to building a highway for this track; it is only a matter of time before a blockbuster project emerges.

2. In my opinion, Aethir is still significantly undervalued: with an annual income of $126 million, the token $ATH currently has a market value of only about $250 million, with a PE lower than traditional tech companies. Coupled with the potential liquidity and market attention increase from the June node unlock, there is an opportunity for valuation correction.

3. Eating meat with the big brother: Projects in the alliance are all top-tier in their fields, such as @iotex_io and @Chain_GPT, which have previously shown impressive performance. This time, after joining forces, they may drive traffic to each other, fostering more cooperative projects, and preemptively laying the groundwork for the related ecosystem, possibly catching the next good coin!

In summary, the establishment of the AI Unbundled alliance is equivalent to handing a 'universal key' to Web3 AI developers: previously, they needed to gather computing power, set up data, and ensure security themselves; now, the alliance takes care of everything, allowing developers to focus solely on writing code. And Aethir, as the 'computing power overlord' behind it, holds the most core resources while quietly making big money. Once the market realizes its value, it might just be the next 'storytelling leader.'

If you are optimistic about the combination of Web3 and AI, this alliance is worth long-term tracking—follow @AethirMandarin and keep an eye on the June node unlock developments. You might catch a significant opportunity early! Revolution #DecentralizedComputing #AIInfrastructureAlliance #Ecology #ComputingPowerNetwork
