TensorCash

TensorCash (TSC) is a proof-of-work Layer 1 blockchain forked from Bitcoin Core. Its mining work is AI inference rather than hashing: miners run consensus-registered open-source language models (currently Qwen3-8B) and each answer produces a compact proof recording which model ran, on what input and under which sampling rules. Nodes check these proofs with an open-source verifier, and answers that meet the network difficulty become blocks. The project also aims to make AI inference verifiable so that compute can be traded between providers without relying on trust.
