Tether QVAC Hackathon · QVAC + WDK + Holepunch

Rent your neighbour's
idle AI.

A peer-to-peer marketplace for on-device AI inference. Send a prompt over an encrypted P2P link, run it on a peer's hardware, and pay per token in real testnet USDT. No servers, no cloud, no cluster.

How it works

Two everyday devices, talking directly. One hosts a model, the other borrows it.

1

Seller hosts

A laptop loads a model and opens a peer-to-peer endpoint over Holepunch, advertising a per-token price.

2

Buyer asks

A device with no model at all sends a prompt straight to that peer. The answer streams back, token by token.

3

Settle in USDT

The work is metered by token and paid on-chain. The seller reads its own balance climb, straight off the chain.

Two things that are real, never faked

Everything else can be mocked for a demo. These two cannot.

Pillar 1

P2P inference over Holepunch

A buyer with no local model gets a real, streamed completion executed on the seller's hardware, routed through an encrypted peer link. It keeps working when the internet is cut.

Pillar 2

Real USDT settlement via WDK

Each request triggers a real on-chain USDT transfer on Sepolia. From a live run:

Both sides, live

A buyer dashboard and a seller dashboard, each wired to its own peer process.

Buyer dashboard
buyer · streams tokens, pays per request, caps spend
Seller dashboard
seller · earns on-chain, watches its balance climb
