Real AI on real money.

Modelmint is a peer-to-peer marketplace for AI inference, paid in Bitcoin Cash. Rent a model from another user's machine, or sell yours — micropayments stream through covenant-enforced state channels. No middlemen. No data harvesting. No rugpulls.

trust-minimized

Funds locked in CashScript covenants. Operators stake BCH; misbehavior is slashable on-chain.

micropayment-native

State channels stream sats per token. Open once, chat for hours, settle on close.

open by default

Anyone can publish a provider identity. The protocol works without modelmint.cash.

how it works

A channel, not an account.

  1. 01

    Pick a model

    Browse the registry, or paste a BCMR txid to add a provider directly. Each card shows the operator's stake and trust tier.

  2. 02

    Open a channel

    Lock some BCH into a covenant with the operator. You set the cap; you can close at any time.

  3. 03

    Chat — sats stream per token

    Each request signs a micropayment. The operator can't overcharge you, you can't underpay them.

  4. 04

    Close on your terms

    Hit close, get your remaining sats back in one tx. Operator gets paid. No counterparty held your funds.

trust tiers

You pick the level of trust.

Trust isn't binary. Every provider declares a tier; you choose what's acceptable for your use case.

open

No stake required. Cheap, fast, anyone can run. Best for casual chat where mistakes are tolerable.

staked

Operator locks BCH as collateral. Provable misbehavior gets slashed. Default for paying users.

attested

Hardware attestation (SGX/TEE) plus stake. Cryptographic proof that the model is what was advertised. Coming soon.
