Blockmate investee Hivello enters strategic partnership with AIxBlock for AI apps to access decentralised computing power
Blockmate Ventures Inc is pleased to announce that its investee, Hivello Holdings Ltd has partnered with artificial intelligence development platform AIxBlock to integrate decentralized computing power into AI applications.
AIxBlock operates at the intersection of artificial intelligence and Web3 technologies, offering a comprehensive development platform to build, train & deploy AI models that typically have high computing power requirements to function optimally. The AIxBlock ecosystem features an end-to-end AI development platform, a compute marketplace, dataset marketplace, and human resources for AI. These computing products cater to businesses and individuals transitioning into decentralized technologies.
With the Hivello platform offering its users a passive income stream in exchange for their unutilised computing power, Hivello will extend these capabilities into the AIxBlock, enabling their users to leverage a substantial network of decentralized computing power.
Justin Rosenberg, CEO of Blockmate Ventures, commented, “With the rise of AI, many of the most innovative apps require a substantial amount of computing power which can be costly to access via traditional data centres. But through this partnership, Hivello and AIxBlock aim to unlock new possibilities in both the decentralized computing space and AI space by providing developers an alternative to centralized data centres while giving Hivello users even more opportunities to rent out their unused computing power for passive income”.

Hivello + AIxblock: Decentralized AI Meets Simplified Node Management
London & Amsterdam, January 23, 2025 – Hivello, a platform simplifying decentralized node management for non-technical users, and AIxBlock, a fully decentralized AI development platform redefining the AI compute and dataset marketplace, have announced a strategic partnership.
AIxBlock operates at the intersection of artificial intelligence and Web3 technologies, offering a comprehensive development platform to build, train & deploy AI models. With its foundation built on the Solana blockchain and its $1 million/year enterprise contract in place, AIxBlock is bridging the gap between traditional Web2 enterprises and the emerging Web3 landscape. Its ecosystem features an end-to-end AI development platform seamlessly integrated with decentralized resources, including a compute marketplace, dataset marketplace, and human resources for AI catering to businesses and individuals transitioning into decentralized technologies.
Hivello, on the other hand, has revolutionized the process of running decentralized nodes, making it simple and accessible to non-technical users. Hivello is targeting 100,000 users within the next year. By allowing individuals with spare computing resources to participate in decentralized infrastructure, Hivello empowers everyday users to contribute to DePIN (decentralized physical infrastructure networks) projects.
Through this partnership, Hivello and AIxBlock aim to unlock new possibilities in the decentralized compute space by integrating their offerings. AIxBlock’s compute marketplace, which primarily relies on enterprise-level providers, could potentially incorporate Hivello’s decentralized compute power from individual GPU providers. This would enable a truly decentralized model, offering scalability, accessibility, and efficiency in AI compute solutions.
As the two companies continue to explore integration possibilities and expand their shared vision, users and enterprises can look forward to a future where participation in AI and decentralized technologies is accessible to everyone regardless of technical expertise.
“AIxBlock is taking charge in transitioning AI-driven enterprises from Web2 to Web3, and we’re excited to collaborate with them on this journey,” said Domenic Carosa, Co-founder & Chairman of Hivello. “Our shared vision is to create a decentralized infrastructure that is accessible to all, bridging the gap between web3 and everyday users.”
Ha Dao, CEO & Co-Founder AIxBlock, echoed the sentiment: “Hivello’s expertise in node management complements our vision of decentralizing AI compute power. Together, we can create an ecosystem that empowers individuals and businesses alike to contribute to and benefit from the Web3 economy.”
