Tianrong Internet Products and Services Inc. has provided an operational update following the February 17, 2026 launch of the DEPIN token for its Depinfer project on the Solana blockchain. The DEPIN token successfully graduated from incubation and completed Phase I decentralized deployment, with the DEPIN/SOL trading pair remaining active on decentralized exchanges since launch, reflecting continued market engagement according to company management.
Depinfer represents a decentralized GPU compute-sharing protocol designed to enable participants to contribute idle GPU resources to a distributed network supporting AI inference and compute workloads. The protocol aggregates underutilized hardware capacity from independent operators and facilitates marketplace-based allocation of compute jobs, with rewards distributed in DEPIN tokens and company reward tokens paired with DEPIN. Management believes early trading activity and community growth provide initial validation for the decentralized physical infrastructure network model within the GPU compute segment, where global demand for AI-related processing continues to expand.
Following completion of the initial bonding curve phase, liquidity transitioned to Raydium automated market maker pools, with the associated liquidity pool locked in accordance with the project's security framework. The DEPIN token functions as the utility mechanism for marketplace transactions, node incentives, reward token pairing, and future governance features. Trading activity for the DEPIN/SOL pair can be monitored through platforms like DEX Screener.
With Phase I deployment complete, Depinfer is advancing to Phase II development expected to focus on integration with additional AI frameworks and developer tools, implementation of dynamic workload allocation and pricing mechanisms, introduction of staking and governance features, and continued enhancement of data privacy and network security protocols. The company expects Phase II to complete by the end of March 2026, emphasizing infrastructure scaling, marketplace functionality, and ecosystem development while maintaining community-oriented governance.
Depinfer leverages Solana blockchain's high-throughput architecture to facilitate low-cost, high-speed settlement for decentralized compute transactions. Management believes decentralized GPU aggregation may offer an alternative infrastructure model in markets experiencing compute constraints and rising AI processing demand. The development addresses a critical infrastructure gap as artificial intelligence applications require increasing computational resources, potentially creating new economic opportunities for GPU owners while providing more accessible compute capacity for AI developers.
Tianrong will continue to provide advisory, technical, and strategic support to the Depinfer initiative as it advances through subsequent development phases. The project's progress reflects broader industry trends toward decentralized infrastructure solutions, particularly in high-demand sectors like artificial intelligence where traditional centralized compute resources face scalability and accessibility challenges. Company updates and related information remain available through corporate communication channels including their newsroom.
