YouTube in 2005: 10% quality, 90% junk.
YouTube after monetization: A creator economy worth $250 billion.

What changed? They started paying people.

There's a similar problem in AI today:

You contribute data. Big Tech builds models. They capture all the value. The end.

@OpenledgerHQ is building the YouTube moment for AI
And we're proud to welcome them into our ecosystem!

OpenLedger is building a blockchain around "Payable AI", an infrastructure that tracks and pays everyone whose data makes models smarter.

Every dataset. Every contribution. Every use.
Rewarded.

Through Proof of Attribution, when businesses use specialized AI models, payment flows transparently, and every detail is recorded permanently onchain.

As OpenLedger goes live on mainnet, they'll gain access to Irys’s specialized datasets—already permanently stored on our high-performance datachain—to build powerful, specialized AI models.

OpenLedger wanted deep, verifiable data onchain at scale and at the lowest possible cost.

Irys provides exactly that.
It's that simple.

Let’s build AI that distributes value back to those who made it possible.

Welcome to the ecosystem, @OpenledgerHQ.
