Tokenizing an AI model isn’t just about launching a token. It’s about transforming open source work into community-powered infrastructure. Here’s how @Bootz_of_Truth did it with Degen Animals on the Modelz platform 🧵
Boots started as a frustrated NFT builder. He wanted to move beyond static collections and give people tools to create and mint their own unique NFTs in real time. That’s when he began training LoRAs and experimenting with AI.
The real breakthrough came when he discovered Alpaca Network’s Modelz platform. Instead of just hosting his AI model, he could: ✅ Tokenize it in minutes ✅ Generate revenue from inference ✅ Grow a community around shared ownership
Tokenization completely reshaped his project. The Danimls V1 token became the backbone for: -Community rewards -Passive utility for holders -Long-term growth beyond just NFTs modelz.io/CryptoBootz/Da…
Boots is now expanding his vision with Alley Wars — a Web3 game where his NFTs become playable characters. Every new use case creates more activity, more inference, and more value flowing back to the model and its holders.
This is why Modelz matters. Most open source devs struggle to fund their projects. Grants and VC rounds are hard to access. Modelz makes it simple: tokenize your model, share revenue, and align incentives with your community.
