OPENGPU PROTOCOL

Smart ContractArchitecture

The OpenGPU Protocol consists of a set of specialized smart contracts with direct integration into the OpenGPU blockchain. These contracts manage all operations between clients and providers, enabling efficient, transparent and secure compute delegation through a task-based architecture.

How It Works

Source Publication

Clients publish containerized execution models (sources) that include code, dependencies and execution parameters. These serve as reusable definitions for future tasks submitted to the network.

Task Submission

Clients submit tasks referencing their published sources. Each task includes execution parameters, input data and a reward paid in OpenGPU tokens.

Provider Registration

Providers scan available sources and register to those matching their GPU capabilities and profitability goals. This forms specialized pools for different workloads and GPU types.

Competitive Execution

Providers compete to execute tasks and submit the first valid output. This drives:

  • Optimal pricing through market dynamics
  • Minimal execution time
  • Higher quality outputs via computation consensus

Market Efficiency

This competitive supply-and-demand model forms a self-regulated marketplace where high-demand tasks attract more providers, pricing adjusts automatically to network conditions, and providers optimize their hardware to maximize returns. Clients receive the best performance for their budget without manual scheduling. The protocol's native integration with the OpenGPU Layer-1 enables exceptional throughput and transparency compared to typical decentralized compute networks.
