Chainbase has released the open-source AI model, Theia-Llama-3.1-8B. It is a language model that focuses on crypto. 
The company had launched an alpha version of the chatbot called TheiaChat in August. It was released at the time to disclose the features of Theia. 
<h3 id="theia-training-was-drawn-from-two-sources">Theia training was drawn from two sources</h3> 
The data used to train the model was taken from CoinMarketCap and other research reports. The data of CoinMarketCap used to train and fine-tune Theia-Llama-3.1-8B includes project documents like whitepapers, official blog posts, and news articles. 
The research reports were obtained from credible online sources to provide in-depth insights into the project’s fundamentals, market influence, and development progress. 
The <a href="https://blog.chainbase.com/theia-open" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">blog post</a> further details that the data from these two primary sources also went through manual and algorithmic filtering to reduce redundancy and eliminate errors. 
Chainbase also used sophisticated techniques in fine-tuning and optimizing the model. The team used LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) for efficient fine-tuning. This helped in adapting the base Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct model to the cryptocurrency domain. 
The training process was enhanced using LLaMA Factory and DeepSpeed, incorporating advanced techniques like ZeRO, offload, sparse attention, 1-bit Adam, and pipeline parallelism to speed up training and reduce memory usage. 
In addition to fine-tuning, Chainbase optimized the model to prepare it for efficient deployment. This quantization process reduces the model’s memory footprint and speeds up inference while maintaining acceptable accuracy.

To evaluate the performance of Theia-Llama-3.1-8B, Chainbase proposed a benchmark for crypto AI models. 
The benchmark evaluates models across seven dimensions, including crypto knowledge comprehension and generation, knowledge coverage, and reasoning capabilities. 
Initial benchmark results focusing on understanding and generation capabilities in the crypto domain show Theia-Llama-3.1-8B outperforming 11 other LLMs. This includes popular models from OpenAI, Google, Meta, Qwen, and DeepSeek. The model achieved a perplexity score of 1.184 and a BERT score of 0.861, surpassing mainstream models currently on the market. 
Chainbase also stated in their blog post that the performance of Theia-Llama-3.1-8B exceeds that of mainstream models currently available on the market. “Next, we will build larger models and evaluate more dimensions of the models,” Chainbase stated.
