In a series of global gatherings, the Autonomys Network marked its presence from the bustling streets of Singapore to the energetic stages of New York City and Salt Lake City. These events — TOKEN2049, Mainnet by Messari, and Permissionless III — not only underscored the importance of web3 but showcased how the concept of decentralized AI (deAI) has taken center stage. The conversations and innovations around AI continue to solidify the Autonomys Network’s position as a critical infrastructure layer for AI3.0 — a future that depends on autonomous, decentralized intelligence.

TOKEN2049: A Bold Vision for Decentralization Amid a Centralized World

At TOKEN2049 in Singapore, the Autonomys Network found itself amid more than 20,000 participants, engaging in over 800 side events, networking sessions, and industry panels. The event spotlighted emerging trends in scalability, user adoption, and AI-driven technologies. However, while the excitement around decentralization was palpable at TOKEN2049, the influence of traditional financial systems was unmistakable. Despite the immersive web3 discussions, participants found themselves closely following the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) announcement on September 18th that the Fed was lowering the federal funds rate by 0.5%. This decision served as a reminder of how even the most decentralized innovations remain interconnected with the centralized monetary policies that steer global economic conditions​. Since investors and markets are influenced by these policies, changes in interest rates can impact the flow of capital into decentralized assets, indirectly affecting their value and adoption.

As AI becomes increasingly integrated into blockchain technologies, Autonomys is positioned to play a key role in providing the infrastructure needed for autonomous systems to operate at global scale. Built as the foundation layer for AI3.0, the Autonomys Network is uniquely able to ensure privacy, security, and scalability for developers and users. Discussions with various partners in Singapore reinforced this vision, laying the groundwork for collaborations that will shape the emerging AI3.0 ecosystem.

Mainnet by Messari: Connecting with Institutional Visionaries

New York City’s Mainnet conference, hosted by Messari, provided an unparalleled platform to engage in dialogues that spanned DeFi, enterprise adoption, and the intersection of web3 and AI. The Autonomys team used this opportunity to strengthen our investor relations and networking channels with key industry players. The Crypto Finance panel on institutional adoption echoed Autonomys’ goals — building the infrastructure that will bring institutions to decentralized ecosystems.

The conference’s exploration of how AI and web3 converge sparked dynamic conversations, particularly around AI’s role in enhancing blockchain efficiency and intelligence. At the forefront of this convergence, Autonomys is positioned as a leader capable of delivering scalable, secure, and decentralized AI solutions. The discussions also highlighted that, as regulatory clarity evolves, projects like Autonomys are well-equipped to offer institutions the reliable, secure, and decentralized tools they need to engage with AI technologies on their terms.

Permissionless III: The Age of DeAI is Here

Salt Lake City’s Permissionless III was another significant event, where the global deAI ecosystem took center stage. The Autonomys Network was right at the heart of it, emphasizing its role in the AI movement. Head of Engineering Jeremy and Chief of Staff Chris were interviewed on multiple podcasts that will be released over the coming weeks.

The dedicated deAI day captured the interest of participants by exploring agent-based AI systems and the infrastructure necessary to support them. Key conversations underscored the importance of decentralizing AI to ensure that future intelligence systems are transparent, secure, and scalable — a vision that the Autonomys Network has been championing via our hyper-scalable deAI infrastructure stack encompassing high-throughput permanent distributed storage, data availability and access, and modular execution.

The conference highlighted projects like Morpheus, 6079, and Wire Network, all of which are contributing to building decentralized AI infrastructures. As Proof-of-Inference technologies gain traction, these efforts signal a broader shift toward decentralized AI ecosystems. The Autonomys Network, with its robust consensus mechanism and data architecture, is uniquely positioned to not only support these infrastructures, but also empower a wide range of AI applications. From decentralized marketplaces to autonomous trading agents, the Autonomys Network serves as the foundation layer that will enable scalable, secure, and truly autonomous systems to thrive.

Conclusion: The Path Forward for AI3.0

At TOKEN2049, Mainnet, and Permissionless III, the Autonomys Network made it clear that its focus is on building the real infrastructure needed for AI3.0. Rather than just riding the wave of AI hype, the Autonomys Network is committed to creating the essential systems that will support deAI development at scale — ensuring privacy, security, and efficiency are built in from the ground up.

These events reinforced a simple truth: the future of AI will require decentralized solutions, and Autonomys — the foundation layer for AI3.0 — is set to be a major player. With a sharpened focus on addressing the most prominent and promising web3 verticals of both today and the foreseeable future, the Autonomys Network has positioned itself to tackle the core challenges of deAI, ensuring its relevance and impact for years to come.

Autonomys is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Compute Labs, a leading compute tokenization platform building a DeFi ecosystem around cutting-edge GPU real-world assets (RWAs). Compute tokenization is the process of converting computing resources into digital tokens that can be traded or utilized on-chain.

Compute Labs is at the forefront of financializing AI infrastructure, and is thus a natural fit for Autonomys’ vision of the AI3.0 ecosystem. Our collaboration is a step towards our projects’ shared goal of revolutionizing how AI applications are developed and deployed, by democratizing access to advanced AI infrastructure.

Key Aspects of the Partnership

• Cutting-edge GPU Access: When Autonomys launches its domain layer in early 2025, Compute Labs will be well-equipped to provide cutting-edge GPU compute to AI training domains, allowing developers to build and deploy advanced AI models on the Autonomys Network.
• Compute Liquidity: Compute Labs will bring significant compute liquidity to Autonomys via its tokenized compute protocol. Developers will be able tap into its scalable pool of computing resources as needed, fostering innovation and accelerating project timelines, and enabling a greater number of AI3.0 applications.
• AI-Fi x AI3.0: Compute Labs’ AI-Fi ecosystem will provide Autonomys users with a diverse selection of compute assets and derivatives to earn yield on as part of Autonomys’ AI3.0 ecosystem.

“We’re thrilled to collaborate with the Autonomys Network, providing their network’s developers with the GPU resources they need to efficiently deploy advanced AI models.” Albert Zhang, Founder of Compute Labs

“Autonomys developers are set to benefit significantly from our integration with Compute Labs.
