Spheron, a decentralized platform leveraging compute resources, has announced the launch of Fizz Nodes, which allow users to participate in the Spheron network and gain rewards by offering computational resources to deploy AI workloads on the edge, without the stringent reliability demands of traditional provider nodes.
By delivering GPU and CPU resources and maintaining a more flexible uptime standard, Fizz Nodes make it easier for anyone to join in the decentralized network by supplying computing resources for AI workloads. Rewards are given to users’ Fizz Nodes according on their uptime and resource contributions. Potential earnings vary according on demand and how resources are used; direct rewards and IDLE rewards provide several ways to make money.
Spheron Points are used for liveness rewards, which are determined daily depending on the caliber of the resources offered. To be eligible for rewards, an ERA (24-hour period) must have at least 50% uptime. Operators may also make money directly from users who lease their computational capabilities; once network costs are subtracted, the node operators get the majority of the leasing fees.
Prashant Maurya, Co-founder of Spheron stated:
“Introducing Fizz Nodes means there is a more streamlined approach available to users to participate in our platform, providing valuable compute resources while meeting a lower standard of uptime compared to traditional provider nodes. We believe this new offering will enhance the scalability and efficiency of our network, while empowering a broader range of contributors to benefit from our ecosystem.”
With the Fizz Node Leaderboard, which Spheron has introduced as part of its new offering, operators can now simply manage nodes. In addition to seeing and withdrawing revenue from liveness rewards and direct user leases, users may also modify their node’s settings and resource offerings. They can also keep an eye on their node’s uptime and performance.
Fizz Nodes are now compatible with Linux and MacOS; Windows compatibility is anticipated soon. The node must be registered on the Spheron network and configured using an easy-to-follow tutorial as part of the setup procedure. The Leaderboard will subsequently be used by operators to monitor the activity and earnings of their node.
