Aethir, the DePin “GPU-as-a-Service” firm, has announced a collaboration with EigenLayer, a blockchain platform that introduces restaking solutions.
This integration is poised to help change decentralized cloud computing by boosting scalability and simplifying the onboarding process for non-Web3 native GPU providers.
Aethir Partners with EigenLayer Amid Network Expansion
In a press release shared with BeInCrypto, Aethir said the integration with EigenLayer’s Actively Validated Services (AVS) model will allow the platform to expand its decentralized network further.
The partnership also introduces an opportunity for Aethir’s community to participate in staking via EigenLayer’s solution. This enables retail stakers to delegate ATH tokens to validators within the EigenLayer ecosystem.
The move opens up new revenue streams for token holders. The partnership also supports the onboarding of new GPU compute providers, especially those constrained by cryptocurrency regulations.
“This integration with EigenLayer represents a key milestone in Aethir’s journey to redefine the future of decentralized cloud computing. By leveraging EigenLayer’s restaking framework, we are not only enhancing the staking opportunities for our community but also unlocking new growth opportunities for compute providers and enterprises alike,” said Daniel Wang, CEO of Aethir.
Aethir’s financial performance over the last year highlights its growth trajectory. The company has deployed more than 397,000 GPU containers across 93 locations worldwide.
These include over 3,000 powerful NVIDIA H100 units and more than 59,000 Aethir Edge devices. Aethir also recorded annualized revenue of over $91 million, based on the last five months, through its on-chain protocol.
Aethir’s New Horizons program is another key part of the company’s strategy to expand its network by attracting high-quality cloud hosts. The program offers compute providers joining the platform annual percentage rates (APRs) of 200%–400%.
In addition, Aethir’s $100 million Ecosystem Fund continues to drive the adoption of its compute platform. The fund supports the development of AI and gaming applications. It provides access to Aethir’s powerful GPU network at competitive prices.
Aethir has also launched all four batches of its AI Agents program, accelerating the adoption of its compute platform.
Moreover, Aethir has recently completed several AI development partnerships, including cloud-focused projects in October and blockchain gaming research collaborations in November.
In December, Aethir announced a partnership with Beam and MetaStreet to launch a $40 million AI compute initiative. The group calls the project TACOM and aims to create a framework for GPU allocation based on crypto.
