*Article: $OPEN & The "Payable AI" Shift*

AI labs scrape your posts, images, code → train models → keep 100% profit. You get $0. OpenLedger $OPEN calls this "extractive AI" and wants to flip it.

$OPEN is an EVM-compatible L2 blockchain for AI. 3 parts:
1. *Datanets* - community datasets for training
2. *ModelFactory* - no-code fine-tuning
3. *OpenLoRA* - runs 1000s of models on 1 GPU, 99% cheaper

Core mechanic: Proof of Attribution. Every data/code/compute contribution is tracked on-chain. When your data trains a model that makes money, you get paid in $OPEN automatically. Data becomes a liquid asset you own.

Launched mainnet 2024, $8M seed from Polychain, $25M fund for AI devs via OpenCircle. Max supply 1B tokens.

Question: Can on-chain rewards pull enough quality data to compete with centralized AI? That’s the bet $OPEN is making for 2026.
