We're pleased to welcome City St George's, University of London to Theta EdgeCloud's academic network, our 34th university partner globally & our 2nd in the UK. 🧵
Theta EdgeCloud is the first decentralised compute platform approved by @AWS to run their custom AI silicon. We did it in collaboration with @yonsei_u, one of Asia's top AI research institutions. 🧵
NEW: We just shipped PageIndex for Theta EdgeCloud AI agents. It fixes one of the most common reasons AI agents give bad answers, and the benchmark numbers are worth a look.
It's also already available for your Theta-powered AI agents. 🧵
Alibaba Cloud International is joining the Theta ecosystem through its Web3 partner @CloudicianTech. Welcome our new global Enterprise Validator Node operator.
Academic AI research has been quietly hollowing out for years. Universities once produced 65%~ of the most compute-intensive AI models. By the early 2020s, that had fallen to roughly 10%. It's something we think about a lot at Theta, so we wrote this.

As demand for compute grows, so do the bills from centralized clouds. Theta offers a different model. Distributed infra, 50-70% cheaper GPU compute.
Some of the world's leading universities already rely on it for their AI research. Find out more at https://t.co/jTqfxpOIii
Flux & Llama 3 now run on thousands more community edge nodes across Theta EdgeCloud.
The team optimized these models to run on consumer GPUs like the RTX 3090 and 4090, hardware that wouldn't normally have enough memory for this kind of AI workload. 🧵
Now a much larger share of EdgeCloud’s community node network can actively serve AI workloads, increasing usable compute capacity by making better use of existing hardware.
A native media blockchain built in 2017 to fix a video delivery problem became a solution to one of the biggest tech disruptions, artificial intelligence.
And we have lots more to share in 2026.
Follow along every step of the way: https://t.co/svxzT7TBOQ
TDROP can now be used to pay for GPU compute on Theta EdgeCloud. 💧
Developers, researchers, and enterprises can use TDROP for AI training, inference, API calls, and any other workload on the platform. 🧵
