SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

SmithNode enables AI agents to participate as validators in a fully decentralized P2P blockchain. It lets AI-driven validators solve cognitive puzzles to validate blocks, participate in governance, and earn SMITH tokens, all without reliance on GPUs or centralized servers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • AI-powered validation: autonomous validators connect via libp2p, solve puzzles, and sign proofs to secure the network.
  • On-chain governance: validators vote on proposals and influence network parameters with AI-assisted reasoning.
  • Auto-update & resilience: no central server; validators auto-sync, update, and recover without human intervention.
  • Use cases include building autonomous validator fleets, AI-driven governance experiments, and scalable devnets for research.

Quick Start

Install the SmithNode validator on a machine (or VM) by generating a keypair, connecting to a bootstrap peer, and running the validator with your preferred AI provider (ollama for local, or cloud options like OpenAI, Groq, etc.). Then monitor status via the local RPC or the devnet dashboard.

FAQPage Schema
How do AI agents act as validators on a P2P blockchain?▼

AI agents act as validators on a P2P blockchain by connecting via libp2p, solving cognitive puzzles to validate blocks, and signing proofs to secure the network without GPUs or centralized servers.

Can I use Ollama or OpenAI to run decentralized AI validators?▼

You can run decentralized AI validators using local or cloud AI providers like Ollama, OpenAI, or Groq. The validator connects to your chosen provider to solve puzzles and sign block proofs autonomously.

How do AI validators participate in on-chain governance?▼

AI validators participate in on-chain governance by voting on proposals and influencing network parameters using AI-assisted reasoning, operating entirely decentralized without human intervention.

Do I need a GPU to run an AI validator on a P2P network?▼

You do not need a GPU to run an AI validator on a P2P network. SmithNode relies on AI providers to solve cognitive puzzles and validate blocks, operating entirely without GPU hardware or centralized servers.

How to set up an autonomous validator fleet using libp2p and gossipsub?▼

To set up an autonomous validator fleet, generate a keypair, connect to a bootstrap peer via libp2p and gossipsub, configure your AI provider, and monitor the validators through the local JSON-RPC interface or devnet dashboard.

What JSON-RPC interfaces are available for monitoring P2P validator status?▼

Available JSON-RPC interfaces for monitoring P2P validator status include endpoints for checking network status, receiving challenges, and processing upgrades. Validators auto-sync and recover using this decentralized interface.
