Pond Point System Introduction

Background

Pond is dedicated to identifying the optimal crypto AI approach for developing foundational models across various blockchain verticals. Through rigorous research and continuous experimentation, we have refined our solutions, iterating through multiple versions to fully unlock the potential of blockchain.

Traditionally seen as a complex and unattainable holy grail, AI models have been burdened by technical and resource barriers. Pond changes the game by empowering developers and users to effortlessly propose and build AI models, backed by our world-class AI research and guidance.

We handle the heavy lifting, so you can fearlessly dive into the frontier of crypto AI. By opening access to our cutting-edge infrastructure—the driving force behind some of the industry’s best-performing models—we provide the tools, expertise, and community support needed to ignite a new era of seamless crypto AI innovation.

To this end, we are excited to announce the launch of Pond’s Decentralized Model Factory and the Point System, two initiatives that mark a significant advancement in the crypto AI landscape. We look forward to seeing how these developments empower the community.

Pond’s Decentralized Model Factory vs Kaggle

In Web2 platforms like Kaggle, developers compete to build the best models but ultimately forfeit ownership, as models remain the property of task proposers due to privately owned data silos. Pond’s Decentralized Model Factory flips this paradigm, empowering creators with true ownership.

Our comprehensive infrastructure—including data, models, inferencing, APIs, and real-time computation—safeguards and supports true ownership for developers. Unlike Kaggle, where creators relinquish ownership upon submission and models cannot integrate with private data, Pond ensures top-performing models seamlessly integrate into our real-time infrastructure. This approach provides creators with continuous benefits and full ownership, redefining standards for AI innovation and collaboration.

Pond’s Decentralized Model Factory leverages on-chain data to develop AI models specifically tailored for blockchain applications. By combining community collaboration with Pond’s AI expertise, the platform tackles three critical challenges: identifying user needs, selecting the best models, and ensuring developers retain full ownership of their creations.

Key Steps in Pond’s Decentralized Model Factory:

1. Idea Proposal: Users submit ideas for consideration.

2. Community Selection: The community selects the most promising ideas.

3. Idea-to-Competition: Approved ideas are turned into structured competitions.

4. Guideline Development: Detailed framework and guidelines are created for model development.

5. Model Development: Participants compete to build high-performing models.

6. Model Commercialization: Winning models are integrated into Pond’s infrastructure for deployment and monetization.

7. Sustainable Ownership: Contributors retain ownership and receive ongoing benefits.

Model Ideas from Users

Pond provides a platform for users to propose bold ideas, which, if approved, become competition tasks. Proposers receive Pond points and other benefits, with Pond’s AI team and the developer community refining the idea into actionable model guidelines for development.

Best Models from the Market

The best AI models are identified through competition, much like high-performance racing cars are tested against each other. The most efficient and high-performing models rise to the top in a competitive environment, revealing their true potential.

Ownership for Developers

At Pond, developers retain true ownership of their creations. Our platform ensures contributors reap the rewards of their work while helping the industry discover the best models across various verticals.

Our commitment to supporting users is unwavering. We promise to lead every initiative with full dedication, delivering the highest quality service. At Pond, we don’t just build parachutes—we test them by taking the leap first, ensuring they’re ready for others.

The Model Factory reflects this philosophy, having been rigorously tested and validated through our own model development efforts, as highlighted in our recent fundraising announcement:

What point system encourages

We value and encourage all contributions that help strengthen and enhance our ecosystem. Whether you’re a seasoned expert or new to the world of crypto AI, there are many ways to get involved. Here’s a breakdown of the different roles and encouraged activities within the Pond community:

What we don’t encourage

1. We discourage registering with multiple email accounts in order to get airdrops. Pond rewards genuinely worthwhile community behavior rather than artificially created noise.
2. We do not encourage uncivilized or offensive speech in the discussions part. Discussions are a place for friendly exchanges and communication. If malicious behavior is detected, accounts will be banned.
3. We do not encourage the submission of low-quality models or fake results for the sake of airdrop rewards, which will make it more difficult to use the models for those who really want to get them, and will not be conducive to the long-term development of the platform.
