# GNFTs & miniGPU

### GNFTs (GPU Non-Fungible Tokens) & miniGPU tokens

Each GNFT represents yield-bearing ownership of a physical GPU unit installed in Compute Labs' partner data centers. These tokens can be further divided into miniGPU tokens, enabling fractional ownership of GPUs and significantly lowering the entry barrier for retail investors.

The yield generated from GNFTs directly correlates with the utilization of their corresponding physical GPUs. Income from GPU leasing is distributed among token holders via USDC payments, creating a transparent revenue-sharing model. Both GNFTs and miniGPU tokens offer substantial benefits, including revenue sharing, DeFi integration capabilities, and asset-backed security.

The investment structure accommodates different capital levels through a flexible tokenization system. When an investor contributes enough capital to cover the entire purchase and installation price of a GPU unit, they receive a GNFT with miniGPU tokens locked inside. Investors contributing below the full price receive fractional miniGPUs proportional to their share of the overall vault size. The tokenization structure typically releases miniGPUs at a 100:1 ratio to GNFTs, though this ratio may be adjusted for additional entries into existing vaults to ensure investor parity throughout a deal's lifecycle.

GNFT holders can convert any portion or the entire set of tokens from their GNFT into miniGPU tokens through an on-chain swap instruction that mints the corresponding miniGPUs and removes them from within the GNFT. This conversion mechanism operates through a deployed program on Solana, ensuring transparent and verifiable token distributions.

GNFTs operate on Solana's high-performance blockchain infrastructure, adhering to established blockchain standards through the SPL Token Program and Metaplex's Token Metadata Program. This foundation provides sub-second transaction finality and minimal gas fees, making micro-transactions and frequent dividend distributions economically viable. Token metadata, including detailed GPU specifications, is stored on-chain using Metaplex's standards, while associated images are stored on Arweave for permanent decentralized storage.

The entire system capitalizes on Solana's parallel transaction processing capabilities, allowing multiple GPU tokenization and fractionalization operations to occur simultaneously without network congestion interference. This architecture makes the platform ideal for scaling to thousands of GPU units across multiple data centers.
