Passkey
grid auth (default)
Device-bound. Face ID, Touch ID, or a hardware key. Phishing-resistant — your vault unlocks with you.

Run a node. Do real work. Earn GRID.
The planetary supercomputer is not a building — it is the mesh we build together.
Super Compute Fabric
Mission
The world's largest supercomputer will not be built in one place. It will emerge from millions of connected machines — garages, racks, datacenters, and edge devices — working as one fabric.
GRID measures real contribution. Not puzzles that burn power to prove you burned power — verified useful work: AI jobs, frames, simulation, and the latency-critical worlds still coming.
Proof-of-Resource scores real capacity.
Work routes to machines that can finish it.
Verified output earns GRID. Exit on your terms.
The Network
GRID abstracts millions of machines into a unified computational environment. You keep control of power, heat, and schedule. The network only takes what you allow.
Heterogeneous hardware — consumer GPUs, workstations, racks, and surplus enterprise capacity — joins as autonomous nodes.
Jobs shard across the mesh. Proximity, capability, and availability decide where work lands.
Results are checked. Fidelity, uptime, and completed work feed reputation — and rewards.
GRID meters compute. The Blockchain Security Layer provides the hard-settlement boundary.
The living mesh
When a machine joins, the world answers with light — a presence. A quiet pulse that says “Hey! — I'm a node.”
The first light. Every pulse on this map begins here — one home for the mesh while the network is still young.
The sky is quiet. Genesis holds the first light — waiting for the next spark to answer.
Run a node. Become a pulse.
For Miners
You already did the hard part — the iron, the power, the discipline. GRID re-aims that craft at verified compute. Same rooms. Same culture. A market that buys capacity.
LETTER“You are not idle capacity. You are not a footnote in someone else's cloud. You are how a planetary computer stays human-scale, geographically real, and hard to capture.”
How you join
Get the GRID binary. One lightweight client. Your machine, your limits.
Set power and thermal bounds. Contribute what you choose — nothing more.
Verified work pays. Sell it, stack it, or settle value through supported blockchain rails.
Edge wallets
Native desktop apps use the same encrypted vault, recovery phrase, grid0 address, and transaction workflow as the GRID command line.
Download GRID WalletNative SwiftUI wallet with system, light, and dark themes.
Desktop wallet for GRID balances, rewards, transfers, and custody.
AppImage and Debian packages backed by the native GRID wallet core.
Native Genesis-signed GRID rewards now; optional external settlement rails remain separate audited gates.
Security by Design
GRID does not decide how your secrets sleep. Passkey by default — or password, twenty-four words, stacked combo, or raw keys for labs. Same mesh. Your rules.
Default path
grid auth lives under device credentials. Genesis authority and operator vaults are separate — no ceremony requires destroying a master key on the node.
grid auth <mode>
grid auth (default)
Device-bound. Face ID, Touch ID, or a hardware key. Phishing-resistant — your vault unlocks with you.
grid auth password
You choose the secret. Portable encryption without a platform passkey.
grid auth keyphrase
A full BIP39 twenty-four word phrase, shown once. Write it offline. The node will not repeat it.
grid auth combo
Password → passkey → keyphrase. Layered unlock for operators who want stacked ceremony.
grid auth nocrypt
Just the keys on disk (mode 0600). No envelope. Labs and throwaway nodes only.
Set once per node. Change when your threat model changes.
Unlock happens on your machine. The mesh never sees the envelope.
Peer policy and truth signatures use genesis keys — not vault master destruction.
Software is live. The token economy is Genesis Earn → open utility — not a public testnet playground. Install now. Learn the fabric.
Spec & social contract
White paper, token design, Blockchain Security Layer, letter to miners.
Rust fabric live
Single binary: coordinator, node, submit. Verified jobs. PoR earn. Open source on GitHub.
Real fleets
Home rigs and racks under live heat. Docker workloads. Edge software wallet shell.
Mainnet rewards
Verified work settles into locked GRID. Emission on-rail. No public testnet economy.
Utility · edge · wallets
Buyers spend for capacity. Marketplace exits to BTC. Web + service wallets at scale.
Phase 1 is open
Run the coordinator. Run a node. Submit work. Early operators learn the fabric before open utility.
Download GRID · Phase 1Phase 1 · Install
One official binary, hosted on grid-compute.com. Installer explains every step — download, verify, install, PATH. Looking for the desktop browser? Download Mesh.
Available · v0.4.0
Detects your machine, pulls the matching binary over HTTPS, checks it is a real Phase-1 CLI, installs to ~/.local/bin, and can wire PATH. Does not start daemons, touch Docker, or read your wallet keys.

grid status
grid auth --help01
The installer detects your OS/CPU, downloads the matching grid binary over HTTPS, verifies it, and places it on your PATH.
