🔴 Expired

Author: Slava MyGonka Created: 2026-06-11 05:35 UTC Closes: 2026-07-11 05:35 UTC Language: Votes: 0 Avg. Bid: 0.00 GNK

Propose to build a beginner-friendly Gonka Network Onboarding Hub to help users acquire, register, and run nodes, reducing onboarding friction and growing active network participation.

Full Proposal

Team Name: Veylox

What does your team plan to build or deliver for Gonka over the next three months?

The team plans to build The Gonka Network Onboarding Hub — a complete, beginner-friendly onboarding resource for new Gonka network participants.

The hub will gather, organize, simplify, and keep up to date the key information needed to participate in the Gonka network. It will include step-by-step written and video guides, explanations of different ways to acquire or rent a node, comparisons of major providers and community-recommended options, pricing information, important considerations, and walkthroughs for getting started.

It will also document the known ways to register a node, including the official manual process, proven community guides, and community-built automation tools.

The goal is to reduce onboarding friction, help more users successfully become network participants, increase the number of active nodes, and support Gonka’s roadmap goal of building frontier-scale decentralized compute.

What contributions or products has your team already developed for Gonka (with links pls)?

The team has been a very early participant in the Gonka network.

They developed a community self-funding Gonka network participating node initiative through a merch site with proof of compute: https://fanmadegonkamerch.store/

They have built local nodes, rented nodes, mined GNK, bought GNK, and participated in key network events and discussions, including the January node hardware requirement debate and discussions around the approved roadmap.

Привет! Глянул ваш сайт с Мерчем. Прикольно. Молодцы ) Вот вам лого для вашего сайта )) https://drive.google.com/file/d/15DSQha49eM82qClEJCorUP1uF5NN94LC/view?usp=sharing

Вы знаете, что есть База Знаний уже как минимум одна: https://www.gonkadb.com/bin/view/Main/

Писали ли вы когда-нибудь Статьи информационные? Давайте вы одну какую-то напишете, чтобы понимать, чего ожидать. И видео есть какое-нибудь уже? Хорошо бы тоже снять.

Т.е. покажите, что будет по итогу.

  1. Сколько вам денег на это нужно?
  2. Можно ли в цифрах ваше предложение? Сколько видео, сколько статей, план публикаций... Т.е. чтобы результат был измеряемым.

Спасибо!

Hi,

Thank you very much.

We have gone ahead and created the website, including examples of one method for obtaining a node and one method for registering a node. Here is the link:

https://thegonkanetworkonboardinghub.com/

The website is fully functional; however, the current content represents only a portion of the planned material. The existing sections will be expanded with more detailed explanations, step-by-step more in detail walkthroughs, guides, and additional resources. We also plan to add several more methods beyond the examples currently displayed.

Regarding compensation, we would like to request the original allocation of 50,000 GNK. We are comfortable with the proposed vesting schedule.

The website will feature dedicated sections that provide guidance, detailed instructions, and video resources covering the various ways users can obtain and register a node.

Based on current estimates, there are approximately 2–3 major node providers, along with options for users who prefer to own and operate their own physical node. As a result, I anticipate the "Get a Node" section ultimately containing around five distinct pathways, each supported by a comprehensive written guide and video tutorial.

Similarly, there are approximately 2–3 commonly used node registration methods within the community, as well as 1–2 community-developed registration tools. Therefore, I expect to create roughly five separate "Register a Node" guides, each accompanied by detailed documentation and video walkthroughs.

Upon approval, I plan to complete the remaining content and have the website fully production-ready within one month.

This project will also require ongoing maintenance to ensure that guides, tools, and resources remain accurate as the ecosystem evolves. I will continue updating the website as new providers, registration methods, tools, and community resources become available.

Thank you.

Я посмотрел сайт. Мне нравится ваша идея.

Хорошо, что мы думаем в одном направлении. Знаешь, о чем я думал? Я считаю, что мы можем писать инструкции не только для людей, но скорее для Агентов. Я бы хотел, чтобы у нас была инструкция (правильнее будет сказать "документация"), которую можно было передать агенту (Cursor, Cloude, Codex) и чтобы он все установил, согласно инструкции.

А эта инструкция бы обновлялась постоянно. Т.е. кто-то бы ее поддерживал в актуальном состоянии.

Скажите, пожалуйста, а на каком языке вы говорите? Английский? Нужно продумать как сделать так, чтобы Статьями могли пользоваться люди на разных языках.

  1. Знакомы ли вы с инициативой NOPE? https://github.com/inc4/gonka-nop

  2. Какой у вас опыт в Майнинге? Вы сейчас майните?

  3. Сейчас создается Комитет, который будет рассматривать такие предложения и помогать делать Пропоузелы. Пока он только создается. Вот здесь чат: https://t.me/Gonka_Marketing Там по русски пишут, но можно и по английски.

Спасибо!

An agent-readable documentation for easy node registration could indeed be a valuable addition and could serve as one of the available options within the node registration section.

  1. I speak English and Russian, too )) We can easily make the whole website available in multiple languages with a toggle option to choose between them.

  2. I have indeed heard of the NOPE initiative and planned to have it as one of the options for registering a node.

  3. We actually built a PC from scratch back in December with 2× 4090s back when you could mine with them. We also rented many different types of nodes online and mined with those.

  4. Great, I speak Russian and English, so no problem at all ))

Ребята из NOPE больше, кажется, не поддерживают свой проект. Но это не мешает зайти и посмотреть их код. Он есть на ГитХаб.

Давай я все-таки уточню: ты планируешь сделать детальную документацию для людей. Эта документация позволит быстрее разобраться с разворачиванем ноды. Т.е. упростит процесс входа.

  1. еще ты опишешь, как арендовать на разных площадках. Это интересно ) А на каких ты арендовал, если не секрет? Брал ли ты на spot? Это выгодно?

Yes, that’s the whole goal. A hub with detailed documentation and video walkthroughs for every available way to acquire a node and register it to the network. Whether it be owning your own node or renting one from various platforms, whether it be registering a node using the official guide, community-made guides, automated tools people have built, or documentation that can be given to an AI agent to perform the setup on your behalf, the goal is to cover every viable path.

Tools like NOPE can absolutely be recreated and included in the “Register a Node” section. Basically, every known working way to register a node will be documented in detail with walkthroughs and kept updated as the network and ecosystem evolve.

The goal is to make acquiring and registering a node as easy and seamless as possible. If we want the network to grow into a world-class decentralized compute system with 1 million+ GPUs connected to it, then onboarding has to be frictionless. Acquiring a node, setting it up, and registering it to the network should be straightforward for both technical and non-technical users alike.

As for renting, we rented from Spheron using both spot and dedicated instances. Spot instances were typically rented for a single epoch because they can be taken away from you with very little warning, which is why they’re so cheap. So yes, they’re cost-effective, but they’re also much riskier. Dedicated instances cost more but provide much greater reliability.

А сейчас майните? Тут же постоянно что-то меняется.

Разбираетесь в коэффициентах? Как подключались, сами или через AI Агента типа Gursor?

Оптимизация нод. Есть ли идеи и опыт?

А ты есть в этом чате? https://t.me/gonka_hosts

We are not mining right now. As mentioned before, we mined both locally using a node we built from scratch and by renting hardware, but we still stay very up to date with the latest network changes, documentation, guides, and tools.

Yes, we understand coefficients and how they affect reward weight depending on the model being run.

We connected and configured all of our nodes ourselves, although we would occasionally use various LLMs for troubleshooting and debugging when needed.

As for node optimization, we often compared reward weight per GPU dollar, taking into account resource consumption and the current coefficient of each model to determine the most efficient setup.

Also, yes, I just joined the chat )
