REI’s AI-Gasless Strategy Addresses Expensive and Inefficient Blockchain Issues

REI Network, a public blockchain platform, revealed this week that it has welcomed two new partners—Spheron and XDGAI—into its ecosystem. The platform also announced that its predecessor, GXChain, will be permanently decommissioned on November 10, 2025, according to

. These developments signal a strategic shift toward AI-focused infrastructure and gas-free transaction models, aiming to establish the network as a significant force in the decentralized AI and computing resource sector.

Spheron, which operates a decentralized GPU network, plans to utilize

Network’s high-speed, zero-fee EVM (Ethereum Machine) to build a scalable, on-chain marketplace for GPU resources. This partnership is intended to offer developers affordable, decentralized computing power for AI model training, DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks), and scientific research, as outlined in the announcement. At the same time, XDGAI, a decentralized generative optimization engine, will make use of REI’s infrastructure to support distributed training, multimodal learning, and on-chain AI content creation. This collaboration highlights REI’s dedication to enabling cross-modal AI computation and advancing applications in DeFi, GameFi, and AI-powered content production.

The discontinuation of GXChain, which has been planned for four years, is part of REI Network’s comprehensive rebranding process. All GXChain operations will end, but users are assured that their on-chain activities will not be impacted by this change. REI Network’s transformation into an AI-native, gasless settlement platform includes new initiatives such as the AI Agent Activation Campaign and the GasZero Program, both designed to lower transaction fees and enhance automated economic systems, the post stated.

REI Network also showcased recent advancements in product development. An internal test network now features a dynamic gas strategy simulator to test its “intelligent gas-free allocation” system, and upgrades to cross-domain message orchestration have improved ecosystem compatibility. The announcement also mentioned ongoing research into AI-based memory allocation models to increase processing power for on-chain inference workloads.

Operational highlights included the announcement of the

Halloween Meme Contest winners, with prizes distributed in $REI tokens. Winners were instructed to claim their rewards through designated wallets, and the network reiterated its focus on community involvement. Additionally, a new NVT-REI LP Farm on NerveSwap and SwapBox is currently offering a 79% APR, encouraging users to provide liquidity for the token, according to the post.

The addition of Spheron and XDGAI supports REI Network’s mission to tackle the challenges of high costs and inefficiency in public blockchain development. By delivering a lightweight, EVM-compatible platform, REI aims to enable swift application migration and foster integration with the broader

ecosystem, as the announcement concluded.
