GPUs are now integrated into Aleph Cloud, providing high-performance computing for AI services, rendering, gaming, AI agents, and more.
We are proud to announce a significant milestone for our decentralized cloud ecosystem with the latest integration of GPUs. The new Aleph Cloud Core Channel Node application introduces GPU integration, a transformative feature that positions Aleph Cloud as a powerful and more competitive solution for high-performance computing needs. In addition, this release brings account management capabilities, pricing estimations, and a host of performance improvements, making Aleph Cloud an even more robust platform for developers and enterprises alike.
With GPU support, users can now unlock unparalleled computing power for tasks such as AI training, rendering, gaming, and running AI agents. By leveraging decentralized infrastructure, Aleph Cloud offers both scalability and flexibility at highly competitive prices, all through the convenience of a Pay-as-You-Go (PAYG) model using ALEPH tokens.

Looking ahead
The integration of GPUs into Aleph Cloud marks a pivotal step forward. By enabling access to both consumer-grade and enterprise-grade GPUs, users can now select the exact resources they need through our intuitive interface at console.twentysix.cloud. This empowers them to scale their workloads seamlessly, whether they are building machine learning models, rendering complex graphics, or powering cloud-based gaming platforms.
Each GPU model is paired with specific vCPU, RAM, and disk allocations, ensuring peak performance for any workload. For example, an RTX 4090, ideal for gaming or smaller AI projects, will cost around* $240 per month**, while an enterprise-grade H100, designed for data-intensive operations, costs approximately $1,920 per month*.
Aleph Cloud’s PAYG model is designed to offer flexibility and cost transparency, a critical advantage for businesses and developers. With ALEPH tokens as the exclusive payment method, users can enjoy a seamless payment experience across blockchains like Base, and Avalanche. This ensures not only affordability but also accessibility to a global audience.
Additionally, when a user provisions a GPU-powered virtual machine and initiates a payment, the system will automatically create two payment streams. 80% of the payment will be allocated directly to the node operator providing the compute power, while 20% will contribute to the Aleph Cloud treasury. This model ensures a fair and sustainable distribution of resources, incentivizing node operators while also reinvesting in the continued growth and development of the Aleph Cloud ecosystem.
The pricing structure is straightforward yet highly competitive. For instance:
This transparent structure enables users to budget accurately, scaling their resources as their projects evolve.
