Among a plethora of AI projects focused on 'generating content + image memes', Sahara AI is one of the few platforms that truly builds a complete AI economic closed loop from the ground up. It is not a model but a system:

✅ Self-developed Sahara L1 blockchain — AI-native design at the blockchain level;

✅ Data platform — Labeling, distribution, refinement, on-chain data commercialization;

✅ Developer platform — One-stop training/hosting/deployment/calling;

✅ AI Marketplace — On-chain exchange for intelligent agents, models, datasets, and computing power.

Simply put, Sahara AI is the Web3 version of HuggingFace + AWS + OpenAI API. It is on-chain, open, and co-buildable.

A Layer 1 born for the new paradigm of AI, dedicated to creating an open, fair, and collaborative artificial intelligence economy 🔥

- Just raised 8.76 times with a valuation of 600 million in the community round

- Co-founded by a tenured professor at the University of Southern California and a 2023 Samsung researcher

Co-founded by @xiangrenNLP and former Binance Labs investment director @tz_sahara.

Tomorrow @SaharaLabsAI will launch on major exchanges like Binance and OKX. Why is it worth paying attention to and buying? Quickly understand in five minutes 👇

⭐️ What is Sahara AI?

Sahara AI utilizes a decentralized ledger to achieve on-chain management and transactions of datasets, models, and intelligent agents, ensuring sovereignty and traceability. Through a transparent incentive mechanism, data providers, labelers, model developers, etc., receive fair returns, and the permissionless 'copyright' system protects contributors' asset ownership, encouraging openness and innovation.

This vision is composed of a three-layer design architecture of Sahara AI: foundational layer, application layer, and ecological layer.

⭐️ Foundational layer

1️⃣ On-chain layer (Sahara blockchain and SIWA testnet for the registration and monetization of AI assets):

The core of the Sahara blockchain is the smart contract system, supporting the registration of AI assets, confirmation of ownership, contribution tracking, permission management, and revenue distribution, building an 'on-chain operating system' for AI.

2️⃣ Off-chain layer (AI execution protocol for running agents and AI services):

With the help of Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), the off-chain protocol supports the creation, deployment, and operation of agents. All execution processes will generate verifiable records and upload them on-chain, ensuring traceability and trustworthiness of the execution.

Sahara supports cross-chain deployment, applications can run on any chain or off-chain environment, with high compatibility.

⭐️ Application layer

1️⃣ Data service platform

Users can participate in data labeling and review, receiving dual incentives from Sahara AI and ecological partners.

AI enterprises can quickly initiate data tasks through the data service platform and obtain high-quality data globally without relying on traditional data suppliers.

2️⃣ AI Developer Platform

This is a one-stop development platform that provides developers and enterprises with full-process support for data acquisition, model training, deployment execution, rights confirmation, and monetization, helping developers participate in the on-chain AI economy at low cost.

3️⃣ AI Marketplace

This is an on-chain asset market for models, datasets, and AI agents, supporting registration, trading, and authorization, with a built-in traceable revenue distribution mechanism. Developers and data contributors can continuously earn from asset calls, with ownership and call records verifiable on-chain, avoiding reliance on traditional centralized APIs or hosting platforms, and providing a more autonomous and transparent commercialization path.

⭐️ Ecological layer

The Sahara AI ecosystem connects data providers, developers, users, enterprises, and cross-chain partners to achieve multi-party collaboration and revenue sharing.

Data, models, and computing power can be registered as on-chain assets, automatically sharing profits based on usage.

Developers can train models, deploy agents, and monetize results through a one-stop platform.

Ordinary users can participate in data tasks, use AI applications, or invest in assets.

Enterprises can obtain full-process support from data crowdsourcing to private deployment.

In addition, Sahara supports cross-chain connectivity, helping various chains build decentralized AI applications, becoming a universal on-chain AI collaboration standard.

⭐️ Shara AI ecological progress

Since its inception, Sahara AI has not just been an AI tool platform but redefines the production and distribution of AI on-chain, building a decentralized collaborative network that everyone can participate in, confirm rights, and share. Based on blockchain, Sahara has achieved verifiable, traceable, and distributable AI assets.

During the private testing phase, over 3.2 million on-chain accounts have been generated, with daily active users reaching 1.4 million. More than 200,000 users participated in data labeling and training tasks and received incentives, while millions await to join, demonstrating strong market demand.

In terms of enterprise cooperation, Sahara has established partnerships with Microsoft, Amazon, MIT, etc., providing customized data collection and labeling services, achieving efficient crowdsourcing through a global labeling network, demonstrating strong enterprise service capabilities.

⭐️ Summary

Sahara AI is reconstructing the creation and distribution of AI, making AI no longer an exclusive resource of giants but a decentralized collaborative system that everyone can participate in and share results.

Targeted at ordinary users, they can earn rewards through data contributions without needing programming skills.

Targeted at technical personnel, Sahara AI connects Web2 and Web3 development paths, providing decentralized yet flexible and powerful development tools and high-quality datasets.

Targeted at enterprises, Sahara AI services can be integrated on demand, expanding intelligent capabilities at low cost.

Targeted at infrastructure providers, Sahara AI offers a new path for the decentralized monetization of models, data, computing power, and services.

Sahara AI does not only focus on public chain infrastructure but also engages in core applications, using blockchain technology to promote the development of AI copyright systems.

Currently, Sahara AI has announced its listing news on Binance Alpha and OKX. When do you think it will officially launch on Binance, and what will the opening valuation be? Personally, I estimate it will surge and then retreat, then stabilize for a while before hitting a new high! New coins launching on exchanges generally follow this pattern. In an optimistic scenario, it will directly continue to surge to peak prices, but such situations are relatively rare. Prudent investors will patiently wait for the new coin to retreat after a surge before choosing to buy on the right side.

Let's witness the performance of the launch on the exchange!
