Hypertensor is a Layer 1 blockchain built on Substrate, serving as the foundational layer for a decentralized AI network. Its core mechanism is Nominated Proof-of-Stake (NPoS), where blockchain validators maintain consensus, while subnets run as parallel sidelayers (similar to L2s) composed of nodes in a distributed hash table performing AI tasks such as inference and training. Subnet nodes must register and stake tokens as proof-of-stake, and nodes score and validate each other to reach consensus, with results recorded on-chain and rewards distributed by validators. This mechanism uses economic incentives and penalties to ensure AI models are decentralized and censorship-resistant, and supports developers in customizing subnets or using predefined standards (e.g., DSN) to deploy decentralized large language models.
