Promote with Leviathan NewsEigen Labs dropped Darkbloom into research preview — a decentralized inference network that routes AI workloads to idle Apple Silicon machines using Secure Enclave attestation for hardware-backed privacy. Node operators never see user data, the API is OpenAI-compatible, and pricing lands at roughly half what centralized aggregators charge since the hardware marginal cost is near zero (operators keep 95% of revenue). Codebase is open-sourced and a paper is published alongside it, though the coordinator layer remains a trust assumption they're upfront about.
