Capital for the machines AI runs on.

The AI build-out needs hardware faster than banks will lend against it. Layer 03 lets capital fund it directly — secured by the hardware, repaid by the revenue the hardware earns. Planned: nothing on this page lends.

How it will work

A loop, not a one-way bet.

  1. 01

    Lend

    Lenders supply stablecoins to a financing pool, with terms and collateral rules published first.

  2. 02

    Finance

    Reviewed operators draw from the pool to buy and run compute; the hardware is recorded on IX.

  3. 03

    Earn

    The machines earn from the hours they sell, reported on a signed feed and marked daily.

  4. 04

    Repay

    Revenue flows back to the pool and to lenders — yield from real usage, not emissions.
