Roadmap
Our progressive journey to building a decentralized AI ecosystem.
RIP-01: API Proxy & Payments
OpenAI-compatible API proxy with Cashu payments
- [*]HTTP proxy forwarding OpenAI-compatible API requests
- [*]Per-request micropayments with Cashu tokens
- [*]Token-based pricing by input/output tokens
- [*]Authorization via API keys or Cashu tokens
- [*]Cost reporting in streaming and non-streaming responses
RIP-02: Node Listing
Nostr event spec for announcing inference nodes
- [*]Nostr kind 40500 event for node announcements
- [*]Node capabilities including models, pricing, and region
- [*]Operator pubkey association
- [*]Endpoint URL and latency metrics
- [*]Client subscription to node listings
RIP-03: Frontend Discovery
Web interface for browsing available nodes
- [*]List active nodes from Nostr kind 40500
- [*]Filter by models, region, price, and social proximity
- [*]Node cards with descriptions and metrics
- [*]Search and filtering capabilities
- [*]Real-time updates on new node events
RIP-04: Evaluations & Quality
Anonymous quality control for providers
- [*]Client-side randomized evaluation submissions
- [*]Anonymized metrics on quality, latency, and cost
- [*]Provider ratings with ephemeral Nostr keys
- [*]Kind 31555 events with standardized tags
- [*]Aggregation of multiple evaluations
RIP-05: Smart Clients
Client-side token and privacy management
- [*]Local Cashu wallet and token management
- [*]Auto-redemption and token splitting
- [*]Proxy/Tor routing for privacy
- [*]Provider optimization based on metrics
- [*]Dynamic scoring for provider selection
This roadmap is subject to change as we adapt to community feedback and the rapid developments in the open source AI and Bitcoin ecosystems.
