TechFlow News, May 30: According to GMGN data, POD (dphn.ai), an AI token in the Base ecosystem, surged over 35% today, pushing its market capitalization above $137 million and its 24-hour trading volume to $1.2 million.
Underpinning POD is the Dolphin Network, which aims to build a decentralized AI compute network. Leveraging a Peer-to-Pool architecture, it aggregates idle GPU resources to provide computational power for model inference. Nodes earn POD tokens as rewards for processing inference tasks, while users can purchase inference services using assets including POD, ETH, BTC, USDC, XMR, and ZEC.
Previously, the Dolphin team announced that all protocol revenue would be allocated toward market buybacks of POD to counteract token inflation pressure. Additionally, users may stake POD into the xPOD treasury to receive yield distributions, inference quotas, and ecosystem privileges.
Against the backdrop of sustained market attention on AI infrastructure and decentralized computing, POD’s recent price performance has notably outperformed most other Base ecosystem tokens.
