cherry0S : An operating system in your browser. Your GPU mines credits, the credits train AI.
The leaderboard has a season tab: live standings, the prize next to each rank, a countdown to Monday, and every past season with its winners.
Each prize is sent in solana:Ef4jVGopKjCsYehX3rHXfSptvJhmHHYNekQywA7Rpump after the season closes, and the payment is linked next to the winner.
Last week, read as if it had been a season: 144 wallets mined. 1st place verified 60,164 credits of work, an RTX 3060 came 2nd with 37,506, and 10th place took 790.
An Apple M5 in Chrome makes about 190 credits an hour.
How you rank: each share the coordinator verifies counts 2^bits hashes, the same work that mints your credits. The season adds up a wallet's work from Monday 00:00 UTC to the next Monday.
Several devices can mine to one address: their work adds up.
The prizes, in solana:Ef4jVGopKjCsYehX3rHXfSptvJhmHHYNekQywA7Rpump:
1st: 150,000
2nd: 100,000
3rd: 75,000
4th to 10th: 25,000 each
500,000 every week. A new season starts each Monday at 00:00 UTC, and the board starts from zero.
Season 1 of cherryOS mining: Monday 19 October 00:00 UTC to Monday 26 October 00:00 UTC.
Every verified hash that week counts. The 10 wallets with the most work share 500,000 $CHERRY.
Mining is free, in a browser tab: https://t.co/yafONbGU51
How to use it:
1. miner.exe: set a wallet, mine a few minutes
2. recipes.exe or train.exe
3. sign once, free, no gas
4. talk to your model
An Apple M5 mines about 190 credits an hour in Chrome. A recipe run uses 0.85.
https://t.co/yafONbGmft
What a starter run covers:
Qwen 0.5B
up to 200 rows of your own data, or a recipe
paid with mined credits, 4 to start
one a day per wallet, back at 00:00 UTC
a run that fails does not use up the day
The first starter run in production: a wallet holding 0 $Cherry mined in Chrome on an Apple M5, then trained the pirate recipe.
RTX 3090, 48 steps, 12.7 GPU-seconds, 0.85 credits, 29 seconds from click to a model you can talk to.
@ekpen76 Credits sell for $0.002 each in buy.exe, paid in $Cherry. A recipe run uses about 0.85, so well under a cent of GPU time.
Mining stays open to everyone: it is how new people find cherryOS. Without $Cherry you get one small run a day. Holders train without limits.
Update: every wallet that mines on cherryOS can now spend its credits on training, without holding $CHERRY.
One starter run a day on Qwen 0.5B, paid with mined credits, and 20 chat messages a day. Holders of 100,000 $Cherry keep no daily limit.
https://t.co/yafONbGU51
Why: 797 wallets have mined since launch, 351,035 credits in all, and 313 of them hold enough for a run. Until today only holders could spend them.
Mining was half of cherryOS. Training is the other half, and it is now open to every miner.
Shipped this week, found while bringing the cherryOS GPU back:
https://t.co/DBM6285Bv6 installs as root on Linux
the trainer runs on NumPy 1 images
a node the coordinator lost now reconnects by itself
ledger.exe answers in 0.3 s instead of 20
the burn app
How a run on cherryOS is billed: GPU-seconds ÷ 60 × 4 credits.
RTX A5000, 80 steps: 16.6 s, 1.10 credits
Apple M5, 152 steps: 63.2 s, 4.21 credits
A community node bills at most 10 s plus 0.35 s a step, and a run that fails is not billed.
From a tab to a trained model: an Apple M5 mines about 3.2 credits a minute in Chrome.
Our first run on the cherryOS RTX A5000 cost 1.10 credits: 80 steps, 16.6 GPU-seconds, a 36 MB LoRA adapter back in 40 seconds. About 21 seconds of mining.
@star_aladdin They pay for training. In train.exe on https://t.co/yafONbGU51 you pick a model and a dataset, and a training node fine-tunes a LoRA adapter at 4 credits per GPU-minute. Our first run on an RTX A5000 cost 1.10 credits.
The last 24 hours on cherryOS: an RTX 3060 mined 9,195 credits. Then a Radeon, an RTX 4060, a GTX 1660 Super, an Apple M2 Pro and an M4 Pro, an RTX 5060, and Intel UHD 630 laptop graphics.
11 miners were online as we read it.
New on the cherryOS desktop: burn.exe.
It lists every $Cherry sent to the burn address since launch, read from the chain, each with its transaction.
27,621,708 $Cherry burned so far, 2.76% of the supply, in 25 transactions.
