#opg $OPG I've been here long enough to watch every cycle come up with a fresh story and swear this time is different. Most of those stories eventually run into the same problems. @OpenGradient has been sitting in the back of my head because it isn't only talking about AI models living on a network; it's talking about hosting them, running them, and proving what actually happened. On paper, that sounds simple. In reality, that's usually where things start getting complicated. Compute isn't cheap, incentives rarely stay aligned, and trust issues always seem to find a way in. I've watched solid ideas lose their way under less pressure than that. I'm not sure this solves any of it, and I don't fully trust AI and crypto narratives anymore. Still, something about this feels different. Maybe it's because the uncomfortable parts aren't being brushed aside with bigger promises.
