#opg $OPG I've been around long enough to remember when every cycle had a new infrastructure story that promised to fix trust, scale, or coordination. Most of them eventually hit the same wall. People say they want decentralization until it adds friction.

That's partly why I keep looking at @OpenGradient . Not because it's another AI narrative, but because it is trying to deal with something crypto and AI both struggle with: verification. If an AI model is making decisions, who ran it, what model was used, and whether the output was changed shouldn't be matters of blind faith.

I'm not sure yet. I don't fully trust it. Building decentralized infrastructure for hosting, inference, and verification at scale sounds difficult in ways whitepapers rarely admit. But after years of watching recycled ideas, something about this feels different. Not exciting. Just difficult enough to be interesting.
