Masa’s AI Data Network and Marketplace Goes Live

Masa Network announced the launch of its AI Data Network and Marketplace on Thursday, April 11. In a press release shared with Cryptowisser, Masa Network said the marketplace allows users to completely control their digital footprint and get paid to train AI models.

Masa Network allows users to be anonymous data contributors and node workers, earning token rewards by sharing their data and unused compute power with AI developers.

The team explained that users can contribute their data and compute to train AI and get rewarded. Furthermore, they can “quest-to-earn” on the Masa App, “surf-to-earn” with the Masa Chrome Browser Extension, “node-to-earn” with the Masa Oracle, or simply live their digital lives in Masa’s extensive Partner Ecosystem. Data points are available to users and they can share in the Masa Data Marketplace in exchange for token rewards. 

AI developers can leverage Masa to train specialized AI modes, making it easier to create hyper-personalized AI agents, AI assistants, and more. While commenting on this latest initiative, Masa Co-founder Calanthia Mei said, 

“The launch of the Masa AI Data Network and MASA token is only the beginning. Our mission is to radically transform AI, by empowering users to earn from powering the AI economy. We envision a future where billions of users are contributing data and compute to power the future of AI. While Web3 has been the springboard for Masa, we are already collaborating with AI developers and institutions in Web2, with the vision to transform the entire AI industry.”

MASA token is already live on Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and on the Masa Network, a dedicated Avalanche Subnet. The token has also been listed on several crypto exchanges including Bybit, Kucoin, Gate, HTX and PancakeSwap. 

To mark its mainnet launch and token listing, Masa allocated 25,000,000 MASA token rewards for trading competitions and AI data farming. The network has also committed 6,666,666 MASA tokens to incentivize users to share their data in the AI Data Marketplace.

Masa is a Decentralized AI Data and LLM Network. Users can own, share, and earn from their data and compute to power AI applications. Masa has already amassed over 1.4 million unique users, 48,000 node operators, and 40 million proprietary data points.
