Before focusing on agents six months ago we were trying to build a Lightning-powered GPU compute marketplace called GPUtopia. We had some success and attracted hundreds of sellers, but couldn't find customers comfortable getting GPU compute from a relatively unstable source when they could get it more easily from standard providers. The 'GPU supply crunch' of ~9 months ago has largely been alleviated, and we didn't want to participate in a race to the bottom competing against compute providers subsidized by massive investment.
We first began "Open Agents" as a video series immediately after OpenAI's dev day in Nov 2023. That was episode 1 of what became our 90-video series - worth hearing more of the story there:
The .com and Delaware C corp for OpenAgents were both available so we pivoted to that - and now we are all in on open agents: specifically an open platform and marketplace for agents using bitcoin, lightning and nostr.
More on that Monday!
I'm getting more interest now. How is openagents, I mean is that also some kind of stacking sats like SN?

This is the overall direction we're aiming for: revenue shared programmatically split between any contributors to agentic workflows
We'll have a basic version of that live next week
