Crypto Payments + Instant Access to AI Models = The Most Practical Crypto Use Case Yet?
I have been a fan of crypto for a long time and i have liked the idea of it, but finding places were it make sense to spend crypto instead of fiat has been hard. For crypto adoption take off we need usecases were using crypto has an advantage over fiat. Personally i think NanoGPT might be the best actual usecase in crypto. It combines crypto payments and access to the best and most up to date AI technology for generating text and images all gathered in one place. Its kinda like Spotify, except its for access to AI and you don't need to pay a subscription, you can just insert a small amount of crypto and you can pay-per-prompt.
It's pretty much the only thing I actually use crypto atm. You can access ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Perplexity, uncensored models, literally all the models, and all the image models too, and pay with crypto.
They accept BTC, SOL, USDC, Nano, BCH, LTC, BASE, Arbitrum, DOGE, most coins you can think of, and minimum is just $0.10. Plus the payment integration is really good for every chain. I have mostly used it with LTC, Nano and Monero.
It's utility that you can't get with traditional money because the fees are too high, you can pay with crypto and be totally anonymous and private, and it's the one thing that I want to use not because it takes crypto, but because i don't need to pay for a monthly subscription to Open AI, Google and Meta etc, to get access to their best AI/LLM.
How is this not a bigger thing?
Here is the link if you are interested in checking it out. If you have only been holding crypto and never spent it i feel this is a good opportunity to finally take the step and try using the technology we all hope one day is gonna be accepted worldwide.
