🚀 Early-stage projects worth watching in the AI + crypto space! These ones are just getting started but already dropping serious innovation and fresh funding rounds: • @TheAIAssembly A true Parliament of Machines -autonomous AI agents propose, debate, vote, and control a shared treasury with no humans in the loop. Bicameral governance experiment for AI collectives. • @akavenetwork Sovereign cloud storage for AI - S3-compatible, zero egress fees, verifiable audit trails, and portable data lakes. Raised $6.65M to give you full control over your AI data without vendor lock-in. • @openforage Harvesting institutional-grade yields through agentic strategies. Open for AI agents to farm DeFi and beyond - yield optimization 2.0 powered by autonomous intelligence. • @VeryAI Proof of Reality platform - verifying real humans in the age of AI, deepfakes, and bots. Just raised $10M (led by Polychain) to launch hardware-free palm-scan identity verification on blockchain. • @zodl_app Mobile wallet powered by Zcash for fully shielded, private transactions (shielded ZEC). Built by Zcash OGs - maximum financial sovereignty and privacy on the go. • @utexocom Native USDT on Bitcoin via Lightning + RGB protocol. Instant, private payments without middlemen or heavy infrastructure. Utexo Cloud simplifies stablecoin ops too. Which one do you think moons first? Keep an eye on these! Drop a like if we hit +50 likes - I'll drop a detailed deep-dive breakdown on EVERY single one of these projects! 🔥

Venice just shipped end-to-end encrypted AI inference. Every major AI platform today runs on the same basic trust assumption. You have to trust the provider to handle your data responsibly. @AskVenice has operated with a slightly different architecture. Conversations are stored locally on your device and prompts are not persisted server-side. When you use frontier models, Venice proxies the request so the provider never receives your identity data. However, the same trust assumptions still apply here. If Venice or a partner wanted to intercept data, nothing in the architecture would prevent it. The new launch introduces two hardware-enforced privacy modes. TEE runs inference inside secure hardware enclaves operated by NEAR AI Cloud and Phala Network, isolating computation from the host OS and infrastructure operator. Remote attestation ties a cryptographic certificate to the physical hardware so anyone can independently verify the model is running inside a genuine enclave. You no longer need to trust the GPU operator but you are still trusting Venice's transit layer. E2EE removes that remaining trust assumption. Prompts are encrypted on device before transmission, stay encrypted through Venice's infrastructure, and only decrypt inside the verified enclave. Venice cannot see your data at any point during normal operation. The tradeoff is that responses may be slower, web search and memory are disabled since they would require decryption outside the enclave. Both modes currently run on a handful of open source models through NEAR AI Cloud and Phala Network and are exclusive to Pro subscribers. How robust these guarantees are in practice depends on the attestation implementation and whether independent audits confirm the claims.

Calling in from the Himalayas, @0xteo tells his story on life after Skid Row "Crypto is part of my recovery story, because it provided me the financial freedom where I didn't have to rely on the systems." Now building @basemateagent on @base — our first guest on Blue Print
