AlphaTON Capital Corp has announced a new AI infrastructure and financing partnership with Vertical Data centered on acquiring and deploying NVIDIA B300 GPUs to power Telegram’s Cocoon AI, a privacy-focused, decentralized AI network built around the Telegram and TON ecosystems. According to AlphaTON’s recent GlobeNewswire releases, the company has been progressively scaling its GPU footprint with NVIDIA Blackwell-class B200 and B300 hardware, and this Vertical Data deal extends that strategy by structuring dedicated financing and capacity to build out a large B300-based compute cluster for Cocoon AI and external GPU rental. AlphaTON positions itself as a hyperscaler for the Telegram super app, targeting roughly 1 billion monthly active users with a mix of AI infrastructure, middleware, and Telegram-native applications. Cocoon AI is described as a decentralized, privacy-preserving AI network that uses high-performance GPUs to offer confidential AI workloads and rental services to AI developers, enterprises, and Telegram ecosystem projects. NVIDIA’s Blackwell-generation B300 GPUs, integrated via partners such as Supermicro and hosted in colocation data centers in regions like Canada and Sweden, are intended to support large language models and advanced AI training and inference, with AlphaTON’s business model combining direct Cocoon AI usage (denominated partly in TON) and generalized GPU cloud rental revenue. Vertical Data enters this picture as AlphaTON’s structured finance and infrastructure partner, providing debt financing and GPU-focused leasing facilities for large-scale clusters while AlphaTON commits equity and operational deployment through a consortium including operators such as CUDO Compute and data-center/power specialists. Earlier transactions arranged with Vertical Data involved multi-year, fully amortizing debt facilities and project capitalizations that blend hardware acquisition with working capital and deployment costs. This latest B300-focused partnership matters because it further consolidates AI infrastructure directly tied to Telegram’s ecosystem, expands the availability of cutting-edge NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs for decentralized, privacy-centric AI, and illustrates how structured GPU financing is becoming a central mechanism for scaling AI compute in the Web3 and super-app context.
