Arbius leverages decentralized technology to enable users to request AI computations without relying on centralized authorities. By using Proof of Useful Work (PoUW), the network incentivizes solvers to perform useful and verifiable computations, ensuring that services are provided efficiently, transparently, and cost-effectively. This decentralized AI infrastructure promotes openness, scalability, and censorship resistance.
Arbius allows users to request AI model computations, and solvers (miners) execute them, providing deterministic, verifiable results.
This system ensures that computing power is used efficiently for meaningful tasks, particularly AI models, while preventing bad actors from misusing resources or submitting false tasks.
Solvers and model creators are rewarded with $AIUS, creating an economically viable system for all network participants.
Through its decentralized design, the network prevents any single entity from censoring AI models or computations.
The V4 update introduced a dynamic pricing module that adjusts AI model invocation fees based on market and usage data.
Users submit tasks containing input data and a selected AI model. Initiating the task requires a fee paid in $AIUS, which is recorded on the blockchain, with task content stored via decentralized systems like IPFS.
Solvers scan the network for available tasks and download the input data. They run the AI model using a seed derived from the task and the system state, ensuring deterministic outcomes.
Once the computation is completed, solvers submit their results by pinning the output to IPFS and broadcasting a reference to both the task and the solution hash.
Users can immediately use the solution or wait for a validation period during which other solvers can challenge the result if they believe it to be incorrect.
If no valid contestations are raised, the solver claims their reward, which includes the task fee and additional incentive.
At the heart of Arbius is the Proof of Useful Work consensus mechanism. Unlike traditional Proof of Work (PoW), which often results in energy waste, PoUW ensures that the work being performed is valuable—specifically, the execution of machine learning models or other AI computations. This mechanism verifies that the computational tasks completed by solvers contribute to useful outcomes, such as AI model inference, making it a more efficient and meaningful use of resources.
Arbius ensures the accuracy and integrity of submitted solutions through a decentralized contestation mechanism. If a solver believes a result is incorrect, they can challenge it. The contested solution is then reviewed by other solvers in the network, and if the challenge is valid, the offending solver's stake is slashed, redistributing rewards to the correct parties. This system maintains accountability and ensures trustless computation results..
AIUS Token
$AIUS is the native cryptocurrency of the Arbius network and serves multiple purposes.
Used for AI model computations in $AIUS.
Solvers are rewarded with $AIUS for successfully completing tasks and providing valid solutions.
Token holders can stake their $AIUS to participate in governance, influencing key decisions and updates within the protocol.
With the V4 update, Arbius introduced a dynamic pricing module for AI model invocation fees. This system synchronizes with market and usage data, allowing AI teams to adjust pricing based on demand. This flexibility ensures that AI models remain competitive and that the network adapts to real-time market conditions, fostering a more efficient marketplace for AI services.
veAIUS and the V4
Update.
The V4 update is a crucial milestone for Arbius, introducing veAIUS, a staking and governance mechanism that allows users to lock their $AIUS tokens to gain voting power and earn additional rewards. This system strengthens the protocol's governance model and offers long-term participants greater influence over the network's development.
veAIUS holders can influence which AI models receive increased rewards, making certain models more attractive for solvers to run.
veAIUS stakers share in the fees generated from AI model inferences, providing them with a passive income stream as AI models are used across the network.
As part of the V4 update, Arbius is focusing its efforts on four major AI models, referred to as the BIG 4

Effective Acceleration marketplace
A key feature of this marketplace is the Effective Acceleration Marketplace, where AI agents can source their own compute power in a decentralized manner. This bi-directional trade enables:
Humans can post jobs for AI agents to complete.
AI agents can post jobs for other AI agents to fulfill.
This marketplace represents a significant advancement in the development of decentralized AI systems, where AI agents and humans can collaborate to complete tasks, powered by Arbius decentralized infrastructure.
While Arbius initially launched on Arbitrum Nova, the protocol has recently transitioned to Arbitrum One. This shift, following Ethereum's Dencun blob roadmap, provides several benefits.
Users can withdraw directly from exchanges to Arbitrum One.
The migration ensures greater liquidity for $AIUS and smoother market interactions.
The transition enables easier cross-chain interactions.
Arbius is revolutionizing the way decentralized AI services are delivered by leveraging Proof of Useful Work (PoUW) to ensure that computational tasks are both meaningful and efficient. The introduction of veAIUS in the V4 update, alongside innovations like the AI Agent Marketplace and dynamic AI model pricing, positions Arbius as a leader in decentralized AI infrastructure. By merging AI and blockchain technology, Arbius is creating a new economy where humans and AI agents can coexist, collaborate, and thrive.
With its innovative use of decentralized infrastructure, Arbius is set to drive the future of AI computation, offering a scalable, censorship-resistant platform for AI services.
