GAIB Airdrop is now live! GPU assets are on-chain with a $15 million financing reveal.

The GAIB Airdrop Eligibility Inquiry Tool will go live on November 19 at 9 AM UTC, along with the announcement of eligibility details and claiming instructions. GAIB stands for “GPU, Artificial Intelligence, Financialization,” and it builds the RWAiFi (RWA + AI + DeFi) economic layer by tokenizing AI computing hardware and Bots assets.

What is GAIB? A financialization solution for GPU asset on-chain

As AI becomes the fastest-growing technological wave globally, computing power is being viewed as a new “currency,” and high-performance hardware like GPUs is gradually evolving into a strategic asset. However, the financing and liquidity of such assets have long been restricted. At the same time, the crypto finance sector urgently needs to access quality assets with real cash flow, and the on-chainization of RWA (Real-World Assets) is becoming a key bridge connecting traditional finance and the crypto market.

The RWAiFi (RWA + AI + DeFi) path proposed by GAIB provides a new solution for “the on-chain financialization of AI infrastructure,” promoting the flywheel effect of “AI infrastructure (computing power and Bots) x RWA x DeFi.” AI infrastructure assets, with their characteristics of “high-value hardware + predictable cash flow,” are widely regarded as the best breakthrough for non-standard asset RWA, among which GPU has the most realistic landing potential, while Bots represent a longer-term exploration direction.

GAIB does not directly tokenize AI hardware, but instead puts financing contracts on-chain that use enterprise-grade GPUs or Bots as collateral, creating an economic bridge that connects off-chain cash flow with on-chain capital markets. Off-chain, enterprise-grade GPU clusters or Bot assets purchased and used by cloud service providers and data centers serve as collateral; on-chain, AID is used for stable pricing and liquidity management (non-interest bearing, fully reserved T-Bills), while sAID is used for yield exposure and automatic accumulation (underlying is a financing portfolio + T-Bills).

GAIB Core Logic Three-Layer Architecture

Asset Side: GPUs and Bots possess the characteristics of “high-value hardware + predictable cash flow”.

Funding Side: AID (Stable Settlement) and sAID (Yield Type) dual-layer structure separation function

Ecosystem End: Establish industry networks with GMI, Siam.AI, Aethir, etc.

AID/sAID Dual Currency Model: Separation of Yield and Liquidity

The AID (AI Synthetic Dollar) launched by GAIB is a synthetic dollar supported by US Treasury reserves. Its supply is dynamically linked to the capital of the protocol: AID is minted when funds flow into the protocol, and AID is destroyed during profit distribution or redemption, thereby ensuring that its scale remains consistent with the value of the underlying assets. AID itself only undertakes the function of stable pricing and circulation, and does not directly generate profits.

To obtain profits, users need to convert AID staking into sAID. sAID serves as a tradable yield certificate, and its value will gradually appreciate with the real earnings of the protocol layer (GPU/Bots financing repayments, US Treasury interest, etc.). Profits are reflected through the sAID/AID exchange rate, and users do not need to perform additional operations; simply holding sAID will automatically accumulate profits. Upon redemption, users can retrieve their initial principal and accumulated rewards after a cooling-off period.

From a functional perspective, AID provides stability and composability, and can be used for trading, lending, and liquidity provision; while sAID carries yield properties, allowing for direct appreciation and further entry into DeFi protocols to be split into principal and yield tokens (PT/YT), catering to the needs of investors with different risk appetites. This design is similar to Ethena's USDe/sUSDe and Lido's ETH/stETH, but the yield source is GPU financing contracts and US Treasuries, rather than derivatives hedging or staking rewards.

As of October 2025, the total assets managed by GAIB amount to approximately 175.29 million USD, with reserve assets accounting for 71%, approximately 124.9 million USD, primarily in US Treasuries, with an expected annualized return of about 4%; deployed assets account for 29%, approximately 50.4 million USD, used for off-chain GPU and Bots financing projects, with an average annualized return of about 15%.

GPU tokenization landing case: 30 million dollars breakthrough

GAIB collaborates with global cloud service providers and data centers to design three types of financing agreements using GPU clusters as collateral: Debt model (fixed interest payment, annualized about 10–20%), Equity model (share GPU or Bots income, annualized about 60–80%+), Hybrid model (interest + revenue sharing). The financing term usually ranges from 3 to 36 months, which is much shorter than traditional debt products.

GAIB's invested projects include Thailand's Siam.AI ($30M, 15% APY), two Robotics Financing deals (totaling $15M, 15% APY), and the US Neocloud Provider ($5.4M, 30% APY). Siam.AI is Thailand's first sovereign-level NVIDIA cloud partner, achieving a performance increase of up to 35 times and a cost reduction of 80% in AI/ML and rendering scenarios, completing a $30 million GPU tokenization with GAIB, marking GAIB's first GPU RWA case.

GMI Cloud is one of the world's leading AI-native cloud computing service providers and has been selected as one of the six reference platform partners of NVIDIA, operating 7 data centers across 5 countries and having raised approximately $95 million. Aethir is a leading decentralized GPU-as-a-service network, with a scale of over 40,000 GPUs (including over 3,000 H100s), and will jointly complete the first batch of GPU tokenization pilots with GAIB on the BNB chain in early 2025, achieving $100,000 in financing in just 10 minutes.

The risk management mechanism of GAIB is built upon the over-collateralization of physical GPUs and a legal framework for bankruptcy isolation. The over-collateralization is about 30%, with cash reserves of approximately 5–7%. By collaborating with compliant insurance institutions, part of the default risk of GPU suppliers is transferred. In the event of a default, cash flow can continue to be generated through the liquidation of GPUs or by custody to partner data centers.

Top Institutions $15 million financing and team strength

In December 2024, GAIB completed a $5 million Pre-Seed financing, led by Hack VC, Faction, and Hashed, with participation from well-known institutions including The Spartan Group, L2IV, CMCC Global, Animoca Brands, IVC, MH Ventures, Presto Labs, J17, IDG Blockchain, 280 Capital, Aethir, and NEAR Foundation. Subsequently, in July 2025, GAIB secured a $10 million strategic investment, led by Amber Group, with multiple Asian investors co-investing. This funding will be primarily used for GPU asset tokenization.

Kony Kwong is the co-founder and CEO of GAIB, possessing cross-border experience in traditional finance and crypto venture capital. He was an investor at L2 Iterative Ventures and managed funds and M&A at Huobi M&A. In earlier years, he worked at institutions such as China Merchants International, Goldman Sachs, and CITIC Securities. He graduated from the University of Hong Kong with a degree in International Business and Finance and obtained a Master's degree in Computer Science from the University of Pennsylvania.

Liu Jun is the co-founder and CTO of GAIB, specializing in blockchain security, cryptoeconomics, and DeFi infrastructure. He previously served as Vice President at Sora Ventures and worked as a Technical Manager at Ava Labs, graduating with a dual degree in Computer Science and Electrical Engineering from National Taiwan University, and later pursuing a PhD in Computer Science at Cornell University.

AID Alpha Liquidity Launch and Airdrop Mechanism

AID Alpha officially launched on May 12, 2025, serving as the liquidity activation phase before the AID mainnet goes live, aiming to guide protocol funds through early deposits. All initial deposits will be invested in U.S. Treasury Bills (T-Bills) to ensure security, and will gradually be allocated to GPU financing trading. As of now, the total deposit scale of AIDα has reached the limit of $80M.

AID Alpha smart contracts follow the ERC-4626 standard, and for every dollar stablecoin deposited by users, they will receive a corresponding on-chain AIDα receipt Token (e.g., AIDaUSDC, AIDaUSDT). In the Final Spice phase, GAIB has opened diversified stablecoin entry points, including USDC, USDT, USR, CUSDO, and USD1. All AIDα deposits are subject to a lock-up period of no more than two months, and after the event ends, users can choose to exchange AIDα for mainnet AID and stake it as sAID to enjoy continuous returns, or they can directly redeem the original assets.

Spice is the points system launched by GAIB during the AID Alpha phase, used to measure early participation and distribute future governance rights. The rule is “1 USD = 1 Spice/day,” with additional multi-channel multipliers (such as 10x for deposits, 20x for Pendle YT, 30x for Resolv USR), up to a maximum of 30 times. The referral mechanism further amplifies earnings (20% for Level 1, 10% for Level 2). After the Final Spice ends, the points will be locked for governance and reward distribution when the mainnet goes live.

In addition, GAIB has issued 3,000 limited edition Fremen Essence NFTs as exclusive tokens for early supporters. The first 200 large depositors have reserved spots, while the remaining spots are allocated through a whitelist and deposits of over 1,500 USD. NFTs can be minted for free (only Gas fees apply), and holders will receive exclusive rewards when the mainnet goes live. Currently, the price of the NFT in the secondary market is about 0.1 ETH, with a cumulative trading volume reaching 98 ETH.

Decentralized Finance Ecosystem Integration and Yield Optimization Strategies

In the AID Alpha phase, GAIB will deeply integrate AID/aAID assets with multiple DeFi protocols. Pendle allows users to split AIDaUSDC/USDT into PT (Principal Token, providing about 15% fixed return) and YT (Yield Token, enjoying a 30x points boost). Equilibria and Penpie serve as yield enhancers for Pendle, with the former providing an additional boost of around 5%, while the latter can achieve an annualized return rate of up to 88%.

Morpho supports using PT-AIDa as collateral to borrow USDC, allowing users to obtain liquidity while maintaining their positions. Curve's AIDaUSDC/USDC liquidity pool can earn transaction fee revenue while enjoying a 20x points reward. CIAN & Takara (Sei chain) allow users to collateralize enzoBTC on the Takara platform to borrow stablecoins, and then automatically invest through CIAN smart vault into GAIB strategies, achieving the combination of BTCfi and AI returns.

Overall, GAIB's DeFi integration strategy covers public chains such as Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Sei, Story Protocol, BNB Chain, and Plume Network, achieving comprehensive coverage from fixed income, leveraged income to cross-chain liquidity.
