Fortytwo’s devnet is live on the Monad testnet. We invite node operators, AI enthusiasts, and early adopters to help build the foundation for decentralized, ever-evolving AI reasoning – unlocking next-generation AI capabilities that advance with every new node.

What is the Fortytwo Devnet?

Fortytwo is a decentralized AI network where small, specialized models run on everyday devices, collaborating to achieve scalable and increasingly sophisticated reasoning.

The devnet runs on Monad as its blockchain settlement layer. Unlike centralized AI, which depends on massive infrastructure, Fortytwo operates as a distributed network where participants can contribute any model, including fine-tunes, without centralized validation or whitelisting. On-chain node performance tracking is essential for maintaining network integrity – rewarding high-performing nodes while preventing exploitation, sybil attacks, and dishonest participation.

‘Hitchhiking to AGI’ – How to Participate

‘Hitchhiking to AGI’ is Fortytwo’s devnet launch program, designed to onboard and reward users who help build and test the network. There are two ways to participate:

A. Run a Node

1. Apply as a node operator here.

2. If selected, you’ll receive an initial token mini-drop to the Monad address you provide.

3. You will have 72 hours to launch your node using the provided instructions.

4. Active nodes will receive ongoing rewards.

B. Grow the Network

1. Share updates about Fortytwo on X.

2. Create dashboards to track node activity and devnet progress.

3. Share your contributions in our Discord to qualify for rewards.

Why Join the Devnet?

• Shape the future of AI and become part of its foundational community.

• Contribute to a decentralized planetary-scale intelligence that scales without relying on centralized control.

• Earn rewards for strengthening the network as a node operator or contributor.

Fortytwo goes beyond standard LLM inference and base AI use cases, building a decentralized foundation for the next generation of AI reasoning. Instead of relying on expensive model training and centralized infrastructure, the network evolves with every new participant and model. With Monad’s high-performance settlement layer, Fortytwo enables open participation, allowing any model—whether general or fine-tuned—to contribute to a new form of AI inference. By enabling multi-step collaboration and deliberation across nodes, this system has the potential to unlock new levels of intellectual work, advancing AI capabilities beyond what centralized approaches can reasonably achieve.

Join us in 'Hitchhiking to AGI' – because the future of AI isn’t something built in a lab but something we create together. Every node, every model, every participant strengthens the network, pushing us closer to a truly decentralized, ever-evolving intelligence. This isn’t just about running a node; it’s about shaping the foundation of a planetary reasoning engine – one that grows with the people who power it. Your contribution isn’t just valuable; it’s essential.

About Fortytwo

Fortytwo is a decentralized AI network that introduces a new type of inference using swarms of small language models running on consumer-grade hardware to achieve scale and reasoning capabilities that exceed centralized AI. The network becomes more powerful and efficient with each new node, operating in a permissionless, transparent, and censorship-resistant manner. Fortytwo allows anyone to contribute by running a node, with node ratings recorded on the Monad blockchain for evaluation and security. Developers can access frontier AI reasoning via API or on-chain, while node operators are rewarded for their contributions.
