Full interview with Björn Tackmann:

SEV Subnets are now live on the Internet Computer. We sat down with Björn Tackmann to understand what they actually are and why they matter. He starts with the problem: standard cloud infrastructure writes your data to memory in plaintext. Anyone with access to the hardware can read it. That's not a flaw in any specific product. It's how computers work. SEV Subnets are the Internet Computer's answer to that. Full conversation below.

Here's a 3-minute look at email recovery for Internet Identity: Register an email from the manage page, confirm with a one-off code, and recover access from a fresh device using the same email. Set it up at id.ai

The ICP CLI now supports login with Internet Identity. Get a delegation to use locally, carry your identity across machines, and use the same principal as your web login, so agents can act on your behalf.

ICP = AI x Logic x Data x Sovereignty Easily understood on demo...

Setup the MCP server with your Caffeine account: help.caffeine.ai/hc/en-us/artic…

Drive Caffeine from Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity with your own subscription. Build locally, take a project offline, then push it back online. caffeine.ai

How email recovery is verified on the network: A new SMTP gateway forwards an email to a canister, which checks the DKIM signature that email servers already attach. To get the public key it uses a root of trust: DNSSEC where supported, or DNS over HTTP via an HTTPS outcall. The gateway is not trusted. The canister does the verification. Set it up at id.ai

Internet Identity now has email recovery in preview. Lose all your devices and your recovery phrase, and you can still get back in by keeping access to your email, something most people do anyway. Set it up at id.ai

Context is what AI needs to build well. Caffeine is building an AI world model to let AI query data across canisters, with a data explorer and an object query language.

Just back from Paris 🇫🇷 after two great days with the @UNDP team and the Blockchain Advisory Group. One perspective I shared: while token ledgers have driven the first wave of blockchain use cases, the real impact of the technology for public good will come from compute. The combination of sovereign cloud infrastructure and AI is where things become transformative. AI is becoming both the most powerful builder and the most capable attacker. At the same time, critical digital infrastructure is often dependent on foreign providers, with growing concerns around control, resilience, and data sovereignty. Cloud Engines address this directly by enabling tamperproof, always-on, sovereign environments where AI can build and operate software. This is already taking shape with forward-looking governments like Pakistan @digitalauthpk and upcoming offering from the @swisssubnet Cloud Engines. For governments, NGOs, and enterprises, this is not just an upgrade. It is a new foundation to secure an important lifeline of modern economies: compute. Appreciation to the @UNDP_AltFinLab for convening and driving these important discussions at the intersection of governments, NGOs, and technology companies. Looking forward to strengthening the collaboration with the UNDP team as well as contributing to the Advisory Group. Stay tuned!

Never lose access to your identity again. Internet Identity now has email recovery. Lose every device, and you still get back in with a message from your own inbox. II verifies it is really you. No seed phrase to guard. Set it up at id.ai

"Critical." That's the legal category EU regulators created in November 2025 for AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. Under DORA - the EU's Digital Operational Resilience Act - the European Banking Authority, ESMA, and EIOPA officially designated all three as Critical third-party providers. Meaning, their failure would constitute systemic risk to the EU financial system. Banks. Insurers. Investment firms. Payment institutions. Across the EU. Running critical functions on infrastructure regulators now class as a systemic dependency. So regulators built a new oversight framework. Joint inspection teams. Annual risk analyses. On-site visits. Not to reduce the dependency. To manage it. That's not a supervision story. It's an architecture story. When concentration becomes severe enough that regulators must invent a new legal category to contain the risk - the problem was never regulatory. It was structural.

Caffeine is separating how you build from where you ship. Build with any AI and toolchain, then host a real, self-owned product on the Internet Computer. New plans, new ways to build, plus collaboration coming soon.

In April we shipped Caffeine v3. A team of specialist agents that take your prompt, plan the project, and build it in parallel. Since the release, subscribers are up around 20% month over month.

Looking forward to contributing to the inaugural meeting of the Blockchain Advisory Group convened by @UNDP at Proof of Talk 2026.

Cloud engines run in three steps. 1) Select your nodes Pick hardware, operators, geography. 4 to 100 nodes per engine, any continent. 2) Fund your engine Pay in USD. Cycles power everything. No infra overhead. 3) Deploy your apps Install from App Center or push direct. Connect your AI agent. Zero servers to manage. One node fails. Apps keep running. opencloud.org

Three things most clouds can't promise: 1) Tamperproof. Runs on a mathematical network, not servers. 2) Always on. No sysadmin team required. 3) Yours. No vendor lock-in, no backdoors. Cloud Engines deliver all three.

Paris, next week. 🇫🇷 I will share insights on the benefits for enterprises and governments using the sovereign frontier cloud on the Internet Computer, based on real life examples. @UNDP_AltFinLab luma.com/5dx11z7w
