Gradient Network - The Open Layer For Edge Compute On Solana
Still Hot Property
Solana was a top performer in 2023 and will continue to produce the goods in 2024. As I mentioned in 2022, I expected Solana to be the Ethereum of the current cycle. In many ways, this tends to be the case and I expect Solana and its ecosystem to continue producing significant gains as the bull market matures. Some of the hottest airdrops have come out of Solana. Jupiter, Grass, and UpRock come to mind.
Gradient Network is another Solana-based project similar to Grass in that it is a DePIN project aimed at producing passive income. Just as users can download the Grass extension to mine points for upcoming airdrops and future passive income, the Gradient extension can be downloaded for a similar outcome. DePIN mining is one of the most viable-entry level opportunities in the Crypto space.
Imagine earning hundreds and thousands of dollars for simply downloading a single extension. Many miss these opportunities because they feel they are too good to be true. However, contrary to these beliefs many are generating a healthy income mining DePIN tokens. Those who missed the Grass Stage 1 airdrop can still participate in Stage 2 as we are only in Epoch 2 and have many months left to mine points.
The Next Chapter
Gradient is the next hot DePIN project to launch on Solana and has already amassed an X account of almost 500K followers. Solana projects with upcoming airdrops tend to garner a lot of attention on X and Gradient is no different. Like Nodepay and Grass, Gradient is very similar in that users create an account, download a browser extension, and then allow it to run in the background. These opportunities are entirely passive once activated.
A simple way to increase daily points is to leave your laptop running 24/7. The extension will only mine points when the device is on. It doesn’t need to be actively used, just powered up and on. One can assign an alternative laptop for dedicated DePIN mining and let it run 24/7. In hindsight, I should have done this for Grass during the initial stage. I have since adjusted and am keen to see the results at the end of Stage 2.
I run multiple nodes on multiple devices, including Gradient. This way at least one of my laptops remains on almost permanently. This boosts the points earned which simultaneously increases the value of the airdrop. The Gradient UI is fairly sleek and easy to navigate. Users can also build a referral network which helps to build an impressive DePIN of nodes. Users earn points and EXP.
EXP rewards are needed to increase one’s account status. The higher the level the higher the boost. I am currently on the bronze level but am slowly making my way to silver. Gradient Network is another great passive earner on the Solana blockchain and promises to be another highly anticipated airdrop. DePIN is redefining passive income in the Crypto space, making it accessible for the average Joe.
Final Thoughts
Those who have experienced the power of DePIN through previous airdrops like Grass are likely to jump on Gradient. When earning becomes this easy, it’s difficult to ignore, regardless of your opinion. Gradient is a recent addition to my ever-increasing arsenal of DePIN nodes. I can’t wait to see how the market responds to this project. Grass was well received, and hopefully, so will Gradient. See you next time!
