Grass Network Airdrop Guide: How to Claim Stage 1 & Participate in Stage 2 (2024

What is Grass Network?

Grass Network is a decentralized web scraping protocol (DePIN) that enables users to monetize their unused internet bandwidth. By connecting users with AI labs and retailers, Grass creates a mutually beneficial ecosystem where participants can earn rewards while contributing to the development of transparent AI models.

Having secured $4.5 million in seed funding led by Polychain Capital and Tribe Capital in December 2023, Grass has positioned itself as a key player in democratizing AI development. The project operates on the Solana blockchain, leveraging its speed and scalability while maintaining robust security through zero-knowledge (ZK) technology.

Grass Network Technology Overview

The Grass Network consists of several key components:

• Grass Nodes: Process web scraping requests using residential bandwidth
• Validators: Verify transactions and generate zk-SNARK proofs
• Routers: Maintain secure connections between nodes and validators
• ZK Processors: Generate validity proofs and create immutable records
• Data Ledger: Store and manage structured datasets
• Edge Embedding Models: Transform scraped data for AI training
