GAIB, the economic layer transforming AI infrastructure investment, has announced the launch of AID Alpha: The Spice Harvest, a liquidity-bootstrapping campaign, where stablecoin deposits earn yield from a blend of real-world GPU financing deals and U.S. Treasury bills. Users can now deposit USDT, USDC, and other stablecoins across supported chains to earn Spice points. AID Alpha will later convert into AID, GAIB’s AI synthetic dollar.
As AI development accelerates, infrastructure providers face a growing capital bottleneck driven by increasing demand for GPUs and compute resources. However, traditional financing options are struggling to keep up with the pace of innovation. GAIB addresses this gap by connecting blockchain-native capital to AI infrastructure through an onchain, permissionless system.
AID, GAIB’s flagship product in the AI onchain economy, is backed by income-generating GPU financing deals and a reserve of liquid assets. It is designed to bring sustainable, real-world yield to crypto while helping scale critical AI infrastructure. AID Alpha is the first phase of this effort. Deposits in AID Alpha will remain locked and subject to caps for the campaign’s duration, to ensure controlled growth and stable yield generation.
“AID is being built in collaboration with our community, ensuring that the future of AI infrastructure is open, decentralized, and financially accessible. The AI revolution is scaling rapidly and urgently, and we need a financial system to keep up with it,” said Kony, CEO and co-founder of GAIB. “We need to break the circular economy that the blockchain industry suffers from and bring revenue from the real world. AID accomplishes both goals.”
Participants in AID Alpha can earn Spice, GAIB’s campaign points system designed to reward ecosystem engagement. Spice accrues daily based on the dollar value deposited and is enhanced by early participation and community referrals. Select AID Alpha participants will also be eligible to mint the Fremen Essence NFT, a limited NFT collection designed to provide exclusive access and perks across the GAIB ecosystem to high-value participants.
AID Alpha is now live on Ethereum, and coming soon to Arbitrum and Base. Following the campaign, AID Alpha tokens will convert into AID, which will later become stakeable, enabling users to get sAID, the yield-bearing version of the token. The campaign has already generated early interest, with more than 500,000 users on its waitlist. For more information about AID Alpha, visit aid.gaib.ai.
