Datavault AI (NASDAQ: DVLT) announced it will tokenize and monetize Available Infrastructure's Project Qestrel, a nationwide network of cybersecure edge data centers deploying across the United States, using its Information Data Exchange platform and patented tokenization technology. The companies expect the Project Qestrel token program to represent more than $1 billion in tokenized value upon full deployment, providing access and usage rights across the edge AI infrastructure network while supporting secondary market trading. Initial token offerings are targeted for the third quarter of 2026.
Project Qestrel is expected to deploy 1,000 cybersecure edge data centers across 100 U.S. cities and more than 30 states as part of an approximately $5 billion buildout. Datavault AI said the initiative expands its existing relationship with Available Infrastructure and will generate revenue through an equal-sharing arrangement, with Datavault AI providing tokenization, clearing, valuation and exchange services. The companies believe the program represents the industry's first large-scale tokenization of a live-deploying nationwide edge AI infrastructure network, creating a new digital asset class tied to AI compute capacity.
The tokenization of physical infrastructure marks a significant shift in how AI compute resources are funded and accessed. By converting rights to edge data center capacity into digital tokens, Datavault AI enables fractional ownership and secondary market liquidity for assets traditionally held by large institutional investors. This could democratize access to high-performance computing for smaller enterprises and developers, potentially accelerating AI innovation across sectors.
Datavault AI's platform leverages Web 3.0 and high-performance computing to provide solutions for data perception, valuation and secure monetization. The company's technology suite includes AI- and machine-learning-based automation, third-party integration, and detailed analytics. The Information Data Exchange enables Digital Twins and the licensing of name, image and likeness by securely attaching physical real-world objects to immutable metadata.
