Render Network

The Render Network is a decentralised blockchain-based platform designed to provide distributed GPU rendering solutions. It enables creators, such as artists and developers, to connect with node operators who have idle GPU resources. Through this system, the network facilitates computationally intensive tasks like rendering 3D content, virtual production, product design, and AI-driven workloads. The Render Network leverages blockchain technology to ensure efficient, scalable, and cost-effective rendering processes, offering creators access to virtually unlimited computational power while allowing GPU owners to monetise unused capacity.

The network operates through a decentralised, peer-to-peer system, with all interactions recorded on-chain for transparency and traceability. By integrating tools like the ORBX file format and enabling multi-tiered pricing, the platform optimises rendering jobs based on factors such as speed, cost, and quality.

RENDER, previously known as RNDR, is the native cryptocurrency of the Render Network and serves multiple purposes:

• Transaction Payments: RENDER is used to pay for rendering tasks and computational services on the network.
• Node Rewards: Node operators who contribute GPU resources to complete rendering tasks receive RENDER tokens as compensation.
• Staking: RENDER can be staked to secure the network and participate in governance.
• Governance: Token holders can vote on Render Network Proposals (RNPs), which determine upgrades, policies, and other changes to the protocol.
• Ecosystem Development: RENDER tokens support the network’s growth by funding grants and incentivising community-driven initiatives.
