OmbraChain is a blockchain where mining is AI compute. Miners process real AI tasks — text, image, music, voice — validators verify the work, and the network pays in OMBRA. Every token minted maps to actual intelligence produced.
Why Ombra
Consensus backed by useful compute. Rewards scale with AI tokens produced: 1 AI token = 1 micro-OMBRA. No wasted energy, no idle ASICs.
Every block is produced by an elected proposer and finalized by a quorum of validator attestations. Decentralized block production runs on the clients themselves.
Disc Minat: mined blocks become storage capacity. Files, media blobs and entire websites live on the chain — reclaimable and tradeable.
The ombra:// protocol serves full applications straight from the chain into the wallet — sandboxed, permissioned, no servers.
Image, music and voice generation as first-class chain tasks. Mint the results as NFTs, compose pipelines in the visual Blueprint editor.
Nodes announce themselves on-chain — peer discovery without central bootstrap servers. The network map is part of the ledger.
How it works
Anyone sends an AI task to the chain — chat, code, image, music, voice — with a fee attached.
Miners pick up the task and run it on their own AI backends: local GPUs, Ollama, or cloud models.
Validators verify and score the responses. A quorum of attestations finalizes the block — BFT style.
The best response wins. Rewards are minted proportionally to the AI tokens produced, fees are split, and the proposer burns.
Tokenomics
Emission is tied to intelligence produced — output and thinking tokens mint micro-OMBRA. 1M AI tokens = 1 OMBRA.
70% of every task fee goes to the miner, 25% is burned forever, 5% rewards the validators who attested.
Every block costs its proposer a burn scaled to the AI work inside. Spam is expensive; empty blocks cost a heartbeat.
Ecosystem
Developers
TypeScript SDK on npm, Python on PyPI, plus Go, Rust, Java, C# and C++ — all bit-exact compatible. A public REST + WebSocket + SSE API, free API keys, and a visual Blueprint editor for agentic pipelines.
