lab-miner
The goal of this project is to write documentation and share necessary code to allow former ETH miners to repurpose their hardware for GPU-accelerated deep learning services offered through openlab. Openlab is a protocol enabling token-gated APIs for biomedicine. Few people have the hardware to fold proteins and dock small molecules at scale. Their number one constraint is (NVIDIA) GPU power. By offering containerized applications on their infrastructure via the openlab protocol, former ETH miners can 1) help accelerate progress in biomedicine, 2) earn stablecoins for their compute services, and 3) get $LAB governance token rewards giving them shared control of the community building openlab.
Problem
ETH is (perhaps) moving to proof of stake in the summer. A lot of Ethereum community members are sitting on stale GPU ressources.
Solution
Instead of switching to another token, we want to offer an alternative way to put the valuable mining hardware to use: folding proteins, docking small molecules, analyzing biomedical images etc.
Technology
Your GPU miner with the following hardware:
- NVIDIA cards
- RTX3090
- RTX3080Ti
- RTX3080
- RTX3070
- RTX3060
- SSD storage
Please make sure you have Ubuntu installed.
Team
to be determined - ETHminers that want to take the green pill and help repurpose their infrastructure for biomedicine wanted.
Financials
to be determined - bragging rights guaranteed, LabDAO governance rights likely.
