Mycellm – BitTorrent for LLMs, pool GPUs into federated networks
by mijkal·Apr 1, 2026·4 points·2 comments
AI Analysis
●●SolidBold BetShip ItDark Horse
BitTorrent for LLMs with on-device PII scanning before prompts leave your machine.
Strengths
- •On-device PII scanning prevents sensitive data from hitting distributed nodes.
- •iOS app turns iPads into Metal-accelerated inference peers at 30+ tokens/sec.
- •Drop-in OpenAI API replacement requires changing only one environment variable.
Weaknesses
- •Distributed inference latency often kills UX compared to centralized providers.
- •Credit economy relies on critical mass of contributors to remain viable long-term.
