How it works

From idle GPU to earning, in five steps.

Install worker

pip install dcs-worker then dcs-worker login

Mint your SBT

One-time Base mainnet mint (gas covered by us). Soulbound to your wallet — non-transferable identity.

Set your floor

Minimum hourly rate you'll accept. Below this, you don't bid. Above, the auction picks the lowest bid.

Run jobs

Worker accepts winning bids automatically. Container runs in isolation. Output uploaded + signed.

Get paid

Settlement on Base mainnet within 60s of job completion. USDC to your wallet. Withdraw any time.

Trust grows

Clean history → Probation → Verified → Trusted tier. Higher tier = better job preference + lower commission.

Hardware

What GPUs we accept + indicative rates.

Rates fluctuate with demand. Floor prices below are typical lows — actual bids run higher.

🟢

H200 (141 GB)

$18-24/hr avg
For: fine-tuning, frontier inference, large-batch render. Highest demand.

🟢

H100 (80 GB)

$15-22/hr avg
For: same workloads as H200, slightly lower memory. Always busy.

🔵

A100 (80 GB)

$10-14/hr avg
For: medium-batch training, vision workloads, inference at scale.

🔵

L40S (48 GB)

$3-5/hr avg
For: video render, image generation, smaller inference workloads.

🟡

RTX 5090 / 4090

$1.20-2.40/hr avg
Consumer cards. Best for: SDXL generation, small inference, render farms.

🟡

RTX 3090 / older

$0.40-0.90/hr avg
Best-effort tier. Hobbyist + edge use cases. Lower job priority.

Earnings examples

Real numbers from real workers.

"Side rig"

1× RTX 4090, 16h/day idle, Verified tier.

~$580/mo
after 2.5% commission, before electricity.

"Dedicated worker"

1× H100, 24/7, Trusted tier.

~$11,000/mo
after commission. Roughly 1× H100 cost amortization in 2-3 months.

"GPU farm"

8× H200 cluster, 24/7, Trusted tier.

~$95,000/mo
at sustained 80% utilization. Operator runs as a business.

Numbers assume current demand. Past performance ≠ future. Electricity cost not included. Some markets (cheap power) materially better return profile.

FAQ

Common questions from workers.

Can I run this on a home PC?
Yes — if your GPU is one of the supported types and you have a stable connection. Be aware: electricity cost + heat + fan noise. Most home workers run a single 4090 in a separate room.
What about heat / electricity?
Worker exposes a daily kWh estimate based on your accepted bids. In markets with cheap power (~$0.10/kWh and below) the math works easily. Above $0.25/kWh you need higher-end GPU + higher-tier workloads.
Can I run a malicious job?
Containers run sandboxed. Outputs are signed + verified before payment. Malicious jobs get caught + worker reputation gets nuked. Reputation > short-term gain.
How are payouts secured?
Smart-contract escrow on Base Sepolia testnet (mainnet soon). For now: service-side hot wallet on Base mainnet with the 97.5/2.5 split. Receipts on every settlement so payment is provable.
What about KYC?
No KYC for individual workers up to $10K/month earnings. Above that, lightweight KYC for AML compliance (passport + selfie via Onfido). KYC'd workers get Trusted tier faster.
