The paradox of open source AI is that while the code is open, the economics are closed. The current system collapses by 2025:
Training competitive models already costs $500K+
Value flows only to centralized platforms
Independent researchers can't compete at scale
Community contributions lack economic feedback loops
We're Bagel. Using cryptography to rebuild the foundation:
Private training (FHE)
Fair attribution
Decentralized infrastructure
Early proof: 26,000+ ML engineers + enterprise teams building production AI while maintaining full sovereignty.

Looking for ML researchers and engineers who want to fix this with us.
