Two common misconceptions about AI: (1) the fallacy of the hard take-off scenario. (2) the idea that intelligent agents will necessarily want to dominate. Full 20VC podcast coming up tomorrow.

We held a Hyperon AGI workshop in Addis Ababa, discussing our progress in developing the first neural-symbolic framework designed to advance beyond today’s AI systems toward AGI and beneficial ASI. Follow the thread for on-the-ground insights from CEO Dr. Ben Goertzel ↓

Saw some people panicking or asking about quantum computing's impact on crypto. At a high level, all crypto has to do is to upgrade to Quantum-Resistant (Post-Quantum) Algorithms. So, no need to panic. 😂 In practice, there are some execution considerations. It's hard to

You ever notice how most 'AI + crypto' projects are just wrappers around OpenAI with a token slapped on? We built $XMD so you can run AI that’s actually yours - private, cross-chain, and verifiable. Not a plugin. Not a middleman. Infrastructure.

Bitcoin Block 943,400 Only 1,600 blocks (~11 days) until we hit the halfway point to the next halving. Block 945,000 is coming. 📉glassno.de/4v5TASP

"We have been designing ASI:Chain from the ground up to be strongly quantum-oriented." CEO Dr. Ben Goertzel discusses Google's major quantum computing research and how the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance's AI infrastructure is architected to run on quantum hardware, not just defend against it.

You ever notice how most ‘AI + crypto’ projects are just wrappers around someone else’s API? Meanwhile, we’ve been heads down building actual infrastructure - ZK-protected models that run on-chain, sync across chains, and don’t leak your data to some VC-backed black box. This

⚡️JUST IN: Grayscale files an amended S-1 for its Bittensor ($TAO) Trust, advancing its push to expand institutional access to AI-focused crypto assets.

An obvious but underappreciated fact: Crypto traders' high volatility tolerance can be a great source of edge It doesn't feel like it when you're bagholding a shitcoin that's drifting to zero or trading a 2% range with 50x leverage just to feel something But in the right

If this was a class back then, I wouldn’t skip a single lesson.

NEW: Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood says on CNBC that Bitcoin's usual -85% collapses are "DONE" 👀 "This is a prove technology, it's a proven monetary system, and it's a new asset class." 🚀

You ever notice how most 'AI crypto' projects are just wrappers around OpenAI with a token slapped on? Meanwhile, we’re out here building ZK-protected, cross-chain AI that actually runs decentralized. Not a dashboard. Not a bot. Infrastructure. $XMD

Ethereum's next upgrade targets block production itself. Glamsterdam moves the builder market on-chain. The projected results are 10,000 transactions per second and a 78% reduction in fees. For institutions building on Ethereum, the settlement layer just got more legible. 👇

You ever look at your wallet and wonder why your AI can’t just… get you? Not some generic chatbot spitting out copy-pasted replies. But an agent that knows your positions, your risk tolerance, your dumb ape trades - and still sticks around to help. That’s Wallet-Based AI. And

You ever watch a dApp burn $50k in gas per week just because their AI runs like it’s still 2017? Yeah. We fixed that. PredictMesh spots the waste before it happens. ZK proofs keep it lean. Cross-chain sync means you don’t recompute the same dumb thing on six chains. Efficiency

You ever watch a DeFi protocol bleed out because it couldn’t think? Not broken code. Not a hack. Just… dumb. Static rules in a chaotic world. We built $XMD so your smart contracts don’t just execute - they adapt. They learn. They see what’s coming. Intelligence shouldn’t be

🔥 UPDATE: 2.89M $ETH are waiting 50 days to be staked while no one wants to unstake $ETH.

NFTs are still dumb. They sit there. Pretty JPEGs with zero agency. What if your NFT could think? Adapt? Move across chains with its brain intact? That’s not sci-fi. It’s what we’re shipping. $XMD isn’t just a token - it’s the nervous system for intelligent assets. Wake up.
