🟡Getting Started

Prerequisites

To begin using OpenGRID, you’ll need:

  • A blockchain wallet (e.g., MetaMask) to manage your $GRID tokens.

  • $GRID tokens, which can be obtained from decentralized exchanges like Uniswap or others.

  • A basic understanding of how GPU resources work, especially if you plan to contribute or rent GPU power for AI tasks.

Accessing OpenGRID Without an Account

OpenGRID offers a streamlined experience that doesn't require traditional account setups. Here's how you can get started:

  1. Connect Your Wallet: Simply visit the OpenGRID platform and connect your ERC-20 compatible wallet, like MetaMask. This allows you to manage $GRID tokens and interact with the decentralized ecosystem directly.

  2. Explore AI Node Rentals: Without setting up an account, you can instantly browse available AI nodes and GPU resources. Through the dApp, you can rent nodes, view pricing, and access performance metrics in real-time—all directly from your wallet connection.

  3. Monitor Resource Usage: Through the dApp interface, users can monitor the performance of the AI nodes they're renting, track GPU power consumption, and even receive optimization tips for their workloads—all without logging into a traditional account.

  4. Decentralized Marketplace: With your wallet connected, you can seamlessly explore the Node AI Marketplace, where you can buy, sell, or trade computational resources. No need for usernames or passwords—your wallet is your identity within the ecosystem.

Getting Involved

  1. Contribute GPU Power: If you own GPU resources, you can contribute to the OpenGRID network, earning $GRID tokens for each successful task completed. All of this is managed through the dApp with no additional software required.

  2. Join the Community: Participate in governance by using $GRID tokens to vote on proposals or improvements to the platform. Your wallet is your voting power—giving you direct influence over the future of OpenGRID.

With OpenGRID, everything revolves around decentralization, from access to resources to contributing to the network. There's no need for complicated sign-ups—just connect, engage, and start utilizing decentralized AI infrastructure with ease.
