Today, using the cheapest AI provider means taking their word for what ran, or running the model yourself.

TensorCash lets providers compete on the answer, not on trust. Any operator with capacity can serve the same open model, attach a proof receipt, and compete on price, latency, and reliability.

A model response can also become a block candidate. The user gets the output; the network gets a proof transcript that can extend the chain.

Mining and serving models collapse into one operation. The compute path answers prompts first, then turns qualifying proof windows into Satoshi-style chain security.
