ChainGPT Releases AIVM Whitepaper, Ushering in the Era of the AI Crypto Economy

ChainGPT, a pioneer in blockchain AI solutions, today announced the release of its highly anticipated AIVM (Artificial Intelligence Virtual Machine) Whitepaper. This document provides a technical and strategic vision for building the foundation of the AI Crypto Economy.

AIVM is a purpose-built Layer-1 blockchain designed for seamless integration of decentralised AI development, compute infrastructure, and monetisation, bringing Web2 and Web3 together in one unified, scalable AI ecosystem.

The Problem

Despite the potential of combining blockchain and AI, existing chains are too slow for practical AI execution, while B oogle DeepMind and OpenAI are limited by centralised control and a lack of economic modularity.

Enter AIVM—the first blockchain capable of handling high-frequency trading, DeFi interactions, and, crucially, the computational demands of deep learning models.

A Plug-and-Play AI Infrastructure Stack

The AIVM ecosystem is designed as a plug-and-play stack for developers, enterprises, and Web3 projects to build, deploy, and monetise AI at scale.

At the core of the architecture are three types of validators—Consensus, AI, and Compute—each securing a critical layer of the protocol.

Token Utility & Validator Incentives

AIVM is powered by a single asset, $CGPT, which acts as both the gas token and the currency of the ecosystem. Users pay $CGPT for compute, storage, model access, and transaction fees.

Validators, including Consensus, AI, Compute, and Data Validators, stake $CGPT to secure the network and earn rewards for maintaining execution integrity, performance, and data privacy. This design aligns economic incentives across all protocol tiers while ensuring AIVM remains scalable, decentralised, and trust-minimised.

Key Innovations

• The only Layer-1 blockchain with native validator roles for AI, Compute, and Data, each enforcing trust across model execution, resource availability, and data privacy.

• A single asset—$CGPT—serves as both the gas token and the currency of the ecosystem, enabling seamless integration of economic activity with protocol security.

• Decentralised resource marketplaces where developers and enterprises can buy and sell compute, storage, data, and model access in a trustless and transparent fashion.

Designed for Everyone in the AI Economy

AIVM empowers:

• AI Researchers: To deploy and test new models, access decentralised datasets, and contribute to open-source AI development.

• DEFI protocols to integrate autonomous pricer modules for efficient cross-chain asset valuation.
