Dev pitches Hippius as decentralized Hugging Face alternative with faster model transfers
const_reborn · x · 2026-11-12
Developer constreborn recommends Hippius, a decentralized Hugging Face replacement running on encrypted compute contributed by miners. He claims to have used it for decentralized training, hosting quadrillion-token datasets and tens of thousands of models, and says the team optimized upload/download speeds over the past year so it outcompetes Hugging Face for fast model transfers — useful for decentralized training workloads.
