Happy New Year, Minders!
Today we’ve come together to celebrate a leap, between past, present, and future.. that will keep us forever bound by a single rope. For some, that leap is probably nothing more than another day on the calendar, and objectively speaking, that’s true. Yet deep in people’s hearts, everything changes, as though a brand-new life were beginning from scratch. To those who celebrate it: be happy and grateful for what you have; enjoy yourselves, stay light-hearted, and think of nothing else and to those who don’tfind happiness that day in the many small things life still offers.
After a well-earned moment of respite for the team, and hoping not to bore you on an important day, we’d like to say a few words about the future of this project, a project that has become far more than the simple label of “project”, and instead a large family of collaborative minds striving toward a shared goal, reaching something that makes us wake up in the morning proud of ourselves, proud of what we are bringing into the world. It has never been merely an economic relationship, but something deeper and purer, something many of you have likely felt just as we have. We are not saying we don’t care about financial success, money is the main component that sets the gears in motion, but it is not the pivot that keeps everything functioning. Aristotle once said, “All men by nature desire to know”, and he was right. Everyone seeks knowledge in every detail, in a world that is deteriorating under uncontrollable forces of manipulation in their rawest form. No one knows what will happen tomorrow, no one can truly predict it, and it’s frightening to wonder whether we will ever return to the market as it once was, to find that cursed, “old and rusted” pivot that can hold everything upright for years to come.
As we step into 2026, we leave behind a 2024 and a 2025 that were disappointing from the standpoint of the project’s growth. But as a team, we learned a great deal, not because we failed to reach the most obvious truth of a new ATH, which I believe should be the last thing a team thinks about at the outset (though maintaining a certain exponential growth is important, no one is disputing that). What mattered was an endless search for the bricks that allow you to build a stable staircase, without fear. We wanted to innovate with absolute frenzy, and that led us to meet people who stole our precious time, beyond money, and to fall into the trap of trying to throw as many things as possible into one ecosystem. Unfortunately, that simply does not work unless you have a very large team and a serious level of discipline.
We have always been transparent with our community in every respect, yet perhaps we didn’t want to admit to ourselves that we were failing, and bleeding ourselves dry. We studied every possible scenario by analyzing the market, but none of them could truly make the difference and bring us success across such a wide range of products: some completed with flaws, others stuck in production for a year or more. We won’t lie and tell you everything will change radically in a matter of days, but we will work day and night to achieve the goals we have set, to honor them, and to continue growing steadily.
The products we will offer will be streamlined to MindSwap, Volume Boost (with rebranded identity and a revamped architecture), and the market-prediction dApp. All other products will be removed and fully discontinued, because they are not sustainable and cannot help us build the great leap we are aiming for: MindAIChatBot, the AI Web App, AgentPad, and Social Agent. Trying to build all of these at once is not a sustainable business strategy: it dilutes the customer’s focus, and nothing ends up truly thriving. IBM tried it, and so did many other multinational companies, who are we to believe we can outdo a giant like IBM? If we want to move forward, we have to be realistic. AgentPad and SocialAgent were completed after a full year of work, but growth also means having the courage to leave something behind.
Many of you are probably thinking, “How will you move forward by removing your Achilles’ heel?” referring to MindAIChatBot. Here’s the truth: it was an Achilles heel only for a very brief period in 2024 (around the launch), and then it broke apart over time. The market that contains this kind of service is simply too saturated, and it is full of businesses we hoped to target that will never adopt it for one simple reason.. it will always be recognized as a MindAI agent tied to the $MDAI token. That means no other project will want to integrate it as a “primary” tool, because doing so would ultimately boost our reputation, and in the crypto market, the law of reciprocity barely exists. At best, it would be adopted for a collaboration announcement on our social channels. It hurts to admit, but that’s how things have played out over the past year and a half. No one is truly interested in a product like this in DeFi and beyond, because no Web2 project would tie itself to a Web3 project; it’s still part of an image of this bridge that remains cracked, though we hope it will align over the coming years.
We often say we want to make a difference. For us, “difference” is sacred. We don’t want to build products that are merely “similar” to competitors, we want them to be fundamentally different, with an architecture that is even more complex and scalable for a market that continues to grow exponentially. Competitors create a market that can be valued, which is why they will always be essential. Claiming to be different, and proving it in a way customers can truly understand, is a process rooted in long-term vision, the same vision that has always been reflected in our community.
We will not give in to this intensely competitive pressure, because we have the dedication, and above all, the passion, to create something immeasurably hard to describe, something capable of changing the market as we know it today. Here’s to 2026: it will be extraordinary, especially thanks to the support this community shows every single day.
MINDAI2026 is here. This month: the first beta of MindSwap V2.
Documentation Update.
By the end of this month of May, the entire new MindAI documentation will be released.
We will move from GitBook to Mintlify, in order to provide a complete developer hub.
Inside it, there will also be a dedicated API testing sandbox that developers will be able to use.
Clearer documentation.
Easier access.
A stronger infrastructure for everyone who wants to build on top of MindAI.
Introducing a new general project update.
March and April were silent months across our main channels, but not inactive.
Over the past month and a half, we continued to push updates to ensure product stability while developing the integration of new providers.
Some time ago, we announced two directions: an open-source project and an agent framework.
After many meetings with the team and deep feasibility analysis, we reached a clear conclusion:
to fully develop an open-source agentic framework, also available through a cloud version hosted by us.
For the first few months, it will remain closed-source until the official release, in order to consolidate the product, the cloud infrastructure, and security.
This framework is being built to make finance, an extremely competitive and complex world, simple and, above all, accessible to anyone.
No advanced knowledge will be required to start: the system will guide the user, explain risk, and prevent decisions that are inconsistent with their operational profile.
Today, financial illiteracy across the world is still massive.
Too many people lose money because they are manipulated by their emotions or because of operational inexperience.
We will solve this enormous market gap.

MindSwap Update.
MindSwap continues to expand.
• Added the following providers:
chainflip, debridge, wormhole, mayan, cow_protocol, kodiak, wanchain_xflows, cetus, titan, sodax, allbridge.
• Business API v3 completed.
• Agentic APIs x402: we will also allow agents to process all their transactions through our routes.
• Bug fixes: +30.
As the months move forward, we will continue to deliver an increasingly efficient and effective product, with the goal of becoming the first route aggregator able to gather all blockchain users through a single point.
MindSwap’s expansion is still long.
The onchain payments segment is the future.
And we are building it.
There needs to be clarity on one very straightforward point: ALL the tokens that were sold had been legitimately bought on the open market, just like any other investor. There was no mint, and this must not be described as a team allocation, because it was not one.
We bought all the tokens that were later sold on the open market (verifiable on-chain), just like any other investor, because those funds, once converted into $MDAI assets, were intended (and still are) for the growth of the project.
It is also incorrect to claim that we are playing with investors money. Everything was carried out through a straightforward and lawful process in order to safeguard *we repeat* the project and its holders. If we had wanted to “play” with our investors money, we certainly would have taken very different paths by now. Instead, we are still here, trying to provide clarity, because everyone involved in the project deserves an open discussion of any kind.
As you can see, we have nothing to hide, as everything was carried out with the utmost care. We recommend joining the official Telegram group, where we have extensively addressed all the doubts and concerns that have come up over time.
In 30 days from today (18/04/2026), we will be removing liquidity as part of the relaunch.
All withdrawn funds will be fully allocated to the new liquidity for the upcoming launch.
This 30-day period is your final opportunity to manage your positions.
After it ends, liquidity will no longer be available, and selling will not be possible.
By holding beyond this timeframe, you acknowledge and accept that the team is not responsible for any inability to exit positions or potential losses.
We strongly encourage everyone to act now and stay informed to avoid any unexpected issues.
MindAI Team
At the relaunch, those who participated in the migration will resume from the period prior to the event (with us fully covering the liquidity gap that occurred). Those who chose not to participate in the migration will instead be able to sell at the current market cap. We reiterate that we have provided both options, and we do not fully understand where the issue lies, as this reflects complete transparency.
We have also never stated that the relaunch would take place after a fixed, pre-announced period. Market conditions are what they are and are not due to our actions, and we are not launching during this period precisely to uphold the safeguards we have implemented for the migration, namely, to protect both investors and the project.
Nothing more, nothing less.
As stated in our previous announcements, which you should have reviewed to safeguard your investment, it has been reiterated multiple times that investors will not be adversely affected by the events that occurred. This is because the token will relaunch from the market capitalization prior to the incident, approximately $4M.
Unfortunately, a misunderstanding of the information provided can lead to inaccuracies such as labeling us as “scammers”. This is not the case, and we have demonstrated this repeatedly. Offering the option to exit at the current price for those who do not wish to wait is different from what you have described. If an investor wishes to exit using their V1 tokens, there is no reason for us to deny that possibility. Those who wanted to participate in the migration have already done so; if someone no longer wishes to proceed, that is their decision. We have provided both options precisely as part of our commitment to full transparency.
We understand that this delay in the launch may cause dissatisfaction among some investors. However, our priority is to ensure the long-term success of the project. We have explained multiple times, particularly during discussions in our official Telegram group, the reasons behind this waiting period and the circumstances requiring it.
Regarding the claim about the “price before the team sold”, the team sold a portion of tokens (verifiable on-chain via the MindAI deployer address), specifically those acquired on the market, in order to execute the properly announced migration process. While this may have led to significant selling pressure from other investors as well, this is a natural consequence of such events and largely beyond our control. No trades were conducted for personal enrichment; all funds remain within the project’s public treasury and will be reinvested into the project.
No.
The announcement was addressed to everyone who did not participate in the airdrop months ago. We will launch when the market is ready; if you would prefer to receive your V1 tokens instead of waiting, we can absolutely proceed with that.
The relaunch date is entirely at the team’s discretion and will be based on statistical data to ensure the best possible launch, without issues.
@NeznamaSla27571 Correct!
The announcement was for everyone who did not participate in the airdrop. Of course, those who did participate in the airdrop will receive their tokens at the official relaunch.

Difference and transparency.
OpenClaw decides which tools are available to execute, while our firewall decides how each tool call is executed, deterministically, adopting privacy and safety.
Many other improvements could be made to this firewall which, if it gets used, we’ll gladly do, to cover other aspects too.
If you use OpenClaw in production or in autonomous mode:
Repo: https://t.co/3HlHoTJGVZ
Feedback/issues: https://t.co/D0nra3FixH
If your agent can use tools, your real attack surface is tool execution.
These days the @MindAI team, seeing the huge traction around one of the biggest open-source successes ever, which is @openclaw (ex clawdbot & moltbot), decided to take part in this initiative by giving a real PLUS to the core architecture, operating in the Privacy/Security area for all agents.
We chose to build an external plugin that, if it were to see strong adoption, we would, based on community feedback, move the architecture to other use cases as well.
It is an honor to present, for the team and the whole open-source community, the plugin downloadable with a single command:
npm install -g @mindaiproject/openclaw-tool-firewall

UX & Operations (built for newbies).
We aimed for simple adoption, since openclaw has become so viral that it reached a mass audience with no programming/security background at all:
> Ready presets: strict/standard/dev
> Guided wizard to initialize the policy and catch config foot-guns
> /firewall commands: receipts, request IDs, “why was it blocked?” (explain)
> Approval history and rollup
> “Policy recommend” that generates a policy diff starting from approvals (learning loop)
It’s a drop-in plugin, minimal friction.
