Long-running Bitcoin-based smart contract platform evolves into modern AI and computing ecosystem
Qtum announced the expansion of its ecosystem with Qtum.ai, a text-to-video generation platform, and the upcoming Qtum AI Router, a unified inference layer designed to provide efficient access to multiple AI models. Together, these services position Qtum as a blockchain-supported AI infrastructure network built on a stable, long-running Proof-of-Stake blockchain that has been in continuous operation since 2017.
Qtum’s approach combines a Bitcoin-based UTXO architecture, EVM-compatible smart contracts, and a trusted, production-ready blockchain with the latest AI tools, GPU computing, and creator-focused workflows. The result is an ecosystem spanning blockchain infrastructure, distributed computing, and AI-generating tools under a single brand.

Qtum.ai: Text‑to‑Video for creators and developers
Qtum.ai provides cinematic text-to-video generation using models such as Seedance 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and HappyHorse. The platform is designed for creators, developers, and businesses looking for high-quality AI video without subscription barriers.
The main features are:
- no credit card required
- No subscription
- No token packs or prepaid bundles
- Pay-as-you-go usage
- No data collection or model training on user content
- No cookies, tracking pixels or ad retargeting
- Authentication with MetaMask Snap or Google Login
- 500 free tokens
This model eliminates common pain points with AI services, such as subscription lock-in, credit card anxiety, and persistent marketing emails. Users can generate videos without entering financial information or subscribing to a monthly plan.
Qtum AI router: integrated inference layer
The beta release will be the Qtum AI Router, which provides a unified API to route requests between multiple AI models. Similar in concept to OpenRouter, this service supports:
- AI model routing
- multi-model inference
- Distributed GPU computing
- Low-latency request processing
- AI orchestration and workflow integration
- Agent compatible infrastructure
Router is designed to support developers building AI agents, automation tools, and multi-model applications. ClawBot users will find it easy to operate.
Blockchain with long-term reliability
Qtum’s blockchain has been operating without downtime since 2017, offering a stability profile that is rare in the industry. The network combines:
- Bitcoin-based UTXO security
- EVM compatible smart contract
- Proof of Stake Consensus
- Enterprise-grade reliability
- Consistent uptime over 7 years of operation
- 50 core updates in 8 years
This reliability is central to Qtum’s position as an AI computing network. AI services require predictable and uninterrupted behavior. This is a requirement that Qtum’s blockchain has proven in production environments for many years.
Integrated ecosystem: blockchain + AI + computing
Currently, the Qtum ecosystem extends to:
- Qtum blockchain — Long-term stable Bitcoin-based smart contract platform
- Qtum.ai — AI video generation for creators and businesses
- Qtum AI Router — Unified Inference Routing for Multi-Model AI
- Kutum Ali — Desktop AI agent that integrates multiple LLMs
- GPU infrastructure — Power your inference and generation workloads
This positions Qtum as a hybrid blockchain and AI infrastructure network that supports decentralized computing, creator tools, and useful Web3 applications.
Qtum is a Proof-of-Stake blockchain that combines Bitcoin’s UTXO model with Ethereum-compatible smart contracts. Launched in 2017, Qtum has maintained uninterrupted network operations for over seven years. Qtum is currently expanding into AI infrastructure, GPU computing, and creator-focused tools through Qtum.ai and Qtum AI Router.
