PepeCoin ($PEPECOIN) has launched its $BASED mainnet, a platform designed to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technology for decentralized AI development. The platform, which becomes fully operational next month, introduces a new era of community-driven AI ownership and participation.
The $BASED mainnet enables users to mint AI-powered subnets, known as “Brains,” by redeeming digital tokens called Brain Credits ($BCRED). As of this announcement, 30% of the Brain Credits supply is now circulating, with relevant guides and developer documentation scheduled for release soon.
“By allowing users to have a stake in AI models, the $BASED platform promotes inclusivity in AI development,” said the PepeCoin development team.
Key Features of $BASED Mainnet
- Brain Credits Integration: Users redeem $BCRED to create Brains, subnets fueling the BasedAI Network.
- AI Model, The TFT Enforcer: This Temporal Fusion Transformer model is designed to optimize resource usage by prioritizing tasks and tracking activity across Solana and Ethereum blockchains.
- Deflationary Mechanism: A recent burn event reduced the PEPECOIN supply by 21%, making tokens scarcer and potentially increasing their value.
Recent Milestones
PepeCoin, which boasts a $514 million market cap and a circulating supply of 110.37 million tokens, has seen exponential growth, with a 16,953% increase over the past year. The recent burn event converted a significant portion of tokens into Brain Credits, aligning with the platform’s vision of decentralized AI.
Community-Driven AI Ownership
With the $BASED mainnet launch, PepeCoin aims to decentralize AI ownership, making it accessible to a broader audience. The integration of blockchain technology ensures transparency, while the inclusion of AI subnets encourages diverse community participation.
“The fusion of AI and blockchain creates transformative opportunities, and $BASED is at the forefront of this movement,” the team emphasized.
Next Steps for Users
- Users can begin redeeming $BCRED to mint Brains, with detailed guides forthcoming.
- The TFT Enforcer AI model will provide real-time updates via the PepeCoin X account.
- Developer resources and additional mainnet information will be made available.
