# DePIN Node

**DePIN Node** is SteamPoint’s decentralized GPU compute network. Any workstation, data center, or mining facility can join securely with a one‑click container client, contributing idle or commercial GPUs to the platform. Once online, nodes receive AI inference or training jobs automatically assigned by the scheduler according to their performance, stability, and reputation scores. All workloads run in sandboxed containers, and an optional zero‑knowledge‑proof (ZK) module can attest to computation integrity, ensuring data security and full traceability.\
For each completed task, nodes earn real‑time **SPT token** mining rewards; staking SPT further elevates scheduling priority and yield multipliers. DePIN Node Internet turns worldwide compute into true “plug‑and‑play” capacity—delivering a secure, transparent, and infinitely expandable distributed AI super‑compute network.<br>
