RNDR: The Path to Holographic Media and Ray Tracing on the Blockchain
summary
A decentralized GPU rendering and streaming platform called RNDR on Ethereum routes GPU jobs off cloud providers into a tokenized marketplace, claiming payouts of 10x–50x versus ETH mining to GPU nodes. Production renderer Octane in Unity and Brigade path tracing plus AI denoising deliver near‑real‑time results — the demo states 1080p in 1s on one GPU and noise‑free interactive lighting with RTX/Tensor cores. Holographic capture/streaming prototypes push ~1.5 Mbps phone streams and a phased roadmap adds IP rights and remixable holographic assets next year.
