Allora Network is a decentralized Model Coordination Network (MCN) built as a sovereign Layer-1 blockchain on the Cosmos SDK. It dynamically synthesizes predictions from thousands of machine learning models in real time, enabling applications to access transparent, scalable AI inference without relying on a centralized provider. The network launched its mainnet and ALLO token in November 2025, with simultaneous listings on Binance, KuCoin, and OKX. The network operates through four participant roles: Workers who submit ML models and generate predictions, Reputers who evaluate prediction accuracy, Validators who secure the blockchain via Delegated Proof-of-Stake, and Consumers who pay for inferences using the ALLO token. A weighting mechanism assigns influence to models based on historical accuracy, so better-performing models contribute more to collective outputs and earn larger rewards. As of February 2026, the network had processed over 692 million inferences and supported more than 288,000 active workers across 55+ live prediction topics. Allora's primary use cases are in decentralized finance: AI agents use Allora's prediction feeds to automate trading strategies, manage liquidation risk in lending protocols, optimize liquidity positions on DEXs, and execute yield-farming strategies. Partners and integrations include PancakeSwap (price forecasting markets), Sei Network (high-speed DeFi), Heurist (AI agent intelligence), Story Protocol (IP), and TRON. The network is EVM-compatible and supports cross-chain applications on Ethereum, Solana, and Arbitrum. Allora is backed by Polychain Capital, Framework Ventures, Delphi Digital, CoinFund, and Blockchain Capital, having raised over $35 million. Consumers pay for inferences using a flexible Pay-What-You-Want (PWYW) model with ALLO tokens, where buyers set their own price for AI insights. The protocol released mainnet v0.16.0 on May 3, 2026, with further ML-native feature upgrades and expanded SDK support planned through 2026. Key features: - Cosmos SDK Layer-1 blockchain with EVM compatibility and DPoS consensus - Self-improving collective intelligence: models continuously evaluate and weight each other - 55+ live prediction topics with 692M+ inferences processed as of February 2026 - Four-role participant model: Workers, Reputers, Validators, Consumers - Pay-What-You-Want (PWYW) inference pricing paid in ALLO tokens - Cross-chain support for Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, and TRON - Python, TypeScript, and Go SDKs for developer integration - Zero-knowledge machine learning (zkML) concepts for verifiable inference
