Gensyn Launches $AI Token Auction

This step comes after successfully raising $50.6 million in investments from leading funds such as a16z, Galaxy, CoinFund, Hypersphere Ventures, and others, across multiple funding rounds from 2021 to 2023. According to data from the official website and industry sources like The Block and CryptoRank, Gensyn has already raised $43 million in a Series A round led by a16z in 2023, underscoring investors' confidence in decentralized AI computation technology.

Gensyn positions itself as a platform that enables training artificial intelligence models on distributed GPUs without relying on centralized giants like NVIDIA or AWS. The project has already launched the Verde V2 testnet with 8,000 active nodes, where participants can earn by providing computational power. Now the focus is on the token sale, conducted in the format of an English auction with a valuation cap, making it accessible to a wide audience.

Key Auction Details

Based on information from the official website token.gensyn.network and confirmed data from platforms like KuCoin, Phemex, and X here are the main sale parameters:

• Total Token Supply: 10 billion $AI.Allocated for Sale: 3% (300 million tokens) + additional 2% as bonuses for testnet participants.
• Format: English auction with FDV (Fully Diluted Valuation) ranging from $1 million to $1 billion. Participants place bids, and all whose bid equals or exceeds the final "clearing" price will receive tokens at that price plus a refund of the excess. Those who bid below will receive a full refund without tokens. Initial price – $0.0001 per token ($1 million FDV).
• Minimum Limit: $100 in USDC or USDT on Ethereum (ERC-20).
• Unlock: 100% of tokens available at TGE (Token Generation Event), but with an option to lock for a year for priority allocation and additional bonuses.
• Timeline: Registration started on December 9, the auction itself – from December 15 to 20, 2025. After that – allocation determination and refunds by January 8, 2026, token claims – in early February 2026.
• Requirements: Mandatory KYC for participation. Tokens will be distributed on Ethereum mainnet, with a subsequent transition to Gensyn network (L2).

The auction is taking place on the Sonar platform, built on Ethereum, and has already generated buzz in the community.

Who Will Receive Multipliers and Bonuses?

Gensyn encourages active community participants with additional rewards. Multipliers (extra tokens or priority) are available for:

1. Testnet participants (including node runners and ML contributors).
2. Active community members on Discord and X (Twitter).
3. Those who choose to lock tokens for a year after the sale (plus 10% bonus).
4. Early bidders at the start of the auction.
5. ML contributors (machine learning model developers).

After the mainnet launch (expected in 2026), testnet and sale participants will receive multipliers for their activity and earnings on the platform.

Why Is This Important for the Market?

Gensyn is not just another AI project - it's an attempt to democratize computations for frontier AI models, using "swarm intelligence" from random GPUs worldwide. According to Polymarket, the chances of $1 billion FDV are low, but analysts predict a clearing price around $0.05 ($500 million FDV), with potential 2–3x growth after TGE. The project has already integrated Delphi – a prediction market for staking on AI models in real time.
