Hedera employs a council governance model, relying on a group of trusted organizations to steer network decisions and maintain security. In contrast, Lightchain AI embraces transparent validation through a decentralized network of contributor nodes, ensuring openness and community-driven consensus.
Having completed all 15 presale stages and entered its Bonus Round at a fixed price of $0.007, Lightchain AI has raised $21.2 million from strategic buyers who value transparency and inclusivity.
Powered by an AI-native Virtual Machine, developer incentives, and open governance, Lightchain AI fosters equitable participation and real-time validation. While Hedera centralizes governance, Lightchain AI empowers contributors to shape the future of decentralized AI with full visibility.
Hedera Employs Council-Based Governance for Network Oversight
Hedera Hashgraph employs a council-based governance model to ensure network oversight and strategic direction. The Hedera Council comprises up to 39 globally diverse organizations from various industries, including technology, finance, and academia.
Each council member operates a network node and holds equal voting rights on critical decisions such as software updates, treasury management, and regulatory compliance. Members serve staggered three-year terms, with a maximum of two consecutive terms, promoting both stability and fresh perspectives.
This structure balances decentralization with enterprise-grade reliability, fostering trust among users and regulators. Hedera’s phased approach aims to transition towards greater decentralization, inviting broader participation while maintaining robust governance.
Lightchain AI Implements Transparent Validation via Contributor Nodes
Lightchain AI enhances transparency and trust in decentralized AI by leveraging Contributor Nodes within its Proof of Intelligence (PoI) consensus mechanism. These nodes execute AI tasks—such as model training and inference—and generate cryptographic proofs, including Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs), to verify computations without exposing sensitive data .
The Artificial Intelligence Virtual Machine (AIVM) assigns tasks based on each node’s computational capacity, ensuring equitable participation . Contributor Nodes are rewarded with Lightchain Tokens (LCAI) for their validated work, promoting a merit-based system .
This framework fosters a transparent, decentralized AI ecosystem where all contributions are auditable and verifiable, aligning with Lightchain AI’s commitment to open and accountable AI development.
