# AITBC — AI Token Blockchain
|
|
|
|
Decentralized GPU compute marketplace with blockchain-based job coordination, Ollama inference, ZK receipt verification, and token payments.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
AITBC is a full-stack blockchain platform that connects GPU compute providers (miners) with AI workload consumers (clients) through a decentralized marketplace. The system handles job submission, miner matching, GPU inference execution, cryptographic receipt generation, and on-chain payment settlement.
|
|
|
|
**Key capabilities:**
|
|
- **Blockchain nodes** — PoA consensus, gossip relay, WebSocket RPC
|
|
- **Coordinator API** — Job lifecycle, miner registry, GPU marketplace, payments, billing, governance
|
|
- **GPU mining** — Ollama-based LLM inference with host GPU passthrough
|
|
- **Wallet daemon** — Balance tracking, receipt verification, ledger management
|
|
- **Trade exchange** — Bitcoin/AITBC trading with order book and price ticker
|
|
- **ZK circuits** — Zero-knowledge receipt verification (Circom/snarkjs)
|
|
- **Browser wallet** — Firefox extension for AITBC transactions
|
|
- **Explorer** — Real-time blockchain explorer (blocks, transactions, addresses, receipts)
|
|

|
## Quick Start
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- Python 3.11+
|
|
- Node.js 18+ (for web apps and ZK circuits)
|
|
- PostgreSQL (optional, SQLite for development)
|
|
- Ollama (for GPU inference)
|
|
|
|
### Run Services Locally
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Start all services
|
|
./scripts/dev_services.sh
|
|
|
|
# Or start individually
|
|
cd apps/coordinator-api && uvicorn app.main:app --port 8000
|
|
cd apps/blockchain-node && python -m aitbc_chain.main
|
|
cd apps/wallet-daemon && uvicorn app.main:app --port 8002
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Run Tests
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# CLI tests (141 unit + 24 integration)
|
|
pytest tests/cli/
|
|
|
|
# Coordinator API tests (billing + GPU marketplace)
|
|
pytest apps/coordinator-api/tests/
|
|
|
|
# Blockchain node tests
|
|
pytest tests/test_blockchain_nodes.py
|
|
|
|
# All tests together (208 passing)
|
|
pytest apps/coordinator-api/tests/ tests/cli/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### CLI Usage
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install -e .
|
|
|
|
# Submit a job
|
|
aitbc client submit --type inference --prompt "Hello world"
|
|
|
|
# Register as a miner
|
|
aitbc miner register --gpu RTX4090
|
|
|
|
# GPU marketplace
|
|
aitbc marketplace gpu list
|
|
aitbc marketplace gpu book <gpu_id> --hours 1
|
|
|
|
# Wallet and governance
|
|
aitbc wallet balance
|
|
aitbc governance propose --type parameter_change --title "Update fee"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Deployment
|
|
|
|
Services run in an Incus container with systemd units. See `systemd/` for service definitions and `scripts/deploy/` for deployment automation.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Deploy to container
|
|
./scripts/deploy/deploy-to-container.sh
|
|
|
|
# Deploy blockchain nodes
|
|
./scripts/deploy/deploy-blockchain.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
