About 0G
0G (short for Zero Gravity) is the native token of the 0G Network, a decentralised AI infrastructure layer built to support the execution, storage, availability and verification of AI workloads on-chain. The project aims to address the performance and scalability limits that have historically hindered effective integration of AI with blockchain.
The 0G token operates within a modular architecture, functioning as a multi-purpose utility and staking asset across several key components:
- 0G Chain: A modular, high-throughput EVM-compatible L1 chain designed for AI applications.
- 0G Storage: A decentralised storage layer for large AI datasets, supporting both mutable and immutable data.
- 0G Compute: A decentralised compute marketplace for running AI models and other workloads on distributed GPU infrastructure.
- 0G DA: A scalable data availability network for rollups, AI networks and high-volume blockchain applications.
Each component is designed to operate independently, allowing the 0G token to be used flexibly across different environments.
- Staking & validation: Validators stake 0G to participate in consensus across one or more networks and earn block and fee rewards.
- Storage payments & incentives: Users fund storage with 0G; storage nodes earn over time by proving data accessibility (e.g., via Proof of Random Access).
- Compute fees: Pay-as-you-go inference, fine-tuning or training is paid in 0G, with settlement handled by smart contracts.
- Data availability fees: Projects use 0G to pay for data availability guarantees for rollups and other high-throughput use cases.
0G was founded by a team of builders, researchers and strategists with backgrounds in blockchain, AI, systems engineering and venture:
Michael Heinrich – Co-Founder & CEO Background spanning software development, technical product management and business strategy. Previously scaled a Web2 company to significant size, bringing operational leadership to 0G.
Ming Wu – Co-Founder & Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Extensive R&D experience from Microsoft Research Asia focused on distributed systems, storage, computation and AI platforms. Leads the technical foundation of 0G.
Fan Long – Co-Founder & Chief Strategy & Security Officer (CSSO) Academic research in system security and blockchain combined with entrepreneurial experience. Guides strategy and security for the network.
Thomas Yao – Co-Founder & Chief Business Officer (CBO) Background in physics, self-driving technology and venture capital, including early blockchain investments. Oversees business strategy, partnerships and growth.
