Meet our thesis for the next decade: AI, Atoms & Association

As world order collapses the TAM for sovereignty is growing est. to be a $275T+ market by 2036.

Nation states, companies, neo-collectives & individuals all want agentic infrastructure that guarantees their increasingly contested sovereignty.

We’re greatly saddened, and of course disappointed, to hear the @futureverse news today 🗞️

Firstly at @OVioHQ we remain committed to doing what we can to support the amazing community that has grown around the vision of an Open Metaverse

As significant holders of $ROOT & the Futureverse universe of IP we are now actively;

a) speaking with key stakeholders
b) monitoring community proposals
c) will also be putting our thinking hats on in our Token Engineering & Governance Design Team, as to possible pathways forward

It’s moments like this, where we all can step up and into the fire as a community 🔥 🐦‍🔥

.. to capitalise on the open source nature of the stack, its protocols and IP.

could it be that the Chinese government actually pumped #DeepSeek with a few $Bn and thousands of employees and they are now reporting numbers the same way they did with Covid?

[Alvaro Arranz @ajac_OV]

DeepSeek seems to have some work to do on accuracy…

The Post Web is coming and DePINs are powering it

Outlier Ventures' Post Web thesis is key to understanding blockchain and crypto's future.

According to @OVioHQ we are in the early stages of Convergence, where the intended users of Web3 technology have finally arrived - AI agents 🤖 The blockchain's decentralized nature supplies these agents with the ideal environment to operate.

The Post Web

Instead of us endlessly searching the web, scrolling and clicking, AI agents will understand what we want (intents) and get it done (outcomes), moving us from an attention economy to an intention economy - from extraction to satisfaction 😀

As we delegate more and more tasks to AI agents, the agents will become the dominant users of the web, and we will see the web evolve from one designed for humans to one designed for machine-to-machine interactions.

Why the Post Web needs DePIN

AI needs data storage, computing power, and much more to do its jobs effectively. Decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePINs) will provide the resources it needs. DePINs will also become the embodiment of AI through hardware, robotics, and machine automation, creating a symbiotic relationship where AI can leverage physical infrastructure to execute tasks in the real world (physical AI).

DePINs are delivering what AI needs at a better price and with less value extracted from us, by cutting out middlemen (i.e. centralised platforms), and enabling efficient resource use of often underutilised assets (think smartphones, laptops, bandwidth, etc). This infrastructure is maintained through token incentives, allowing contributers to earn passive income. AI agents are also well positioned to support us to take advantage of these opportunities as they arise 💰

Return to Base Camp

DePINs are therefore critical to the development of the Post Web. It's no surprise then, that Outlier Ventures are reuniting with @peaq for their second DePIN Base Camp accelerator program - this time "Post Web Verified." @1kxnetwork also joins the program this year as a venture partner.

The projects being sought for this cohort will have a focus on:

Hardware-centric innovations
- Think @geodnet
Bring-your-own-device ecosystem (BYOD)
- Think @silencioNetwork
Agent-2-Machine Economies
- Think @combinderio collab with Olas and Nevermined

Applications are open now and will close mid-February ⌛️

Recent updates from some of last year's DePIN Base Camp alumni (caveat - things move fast!):

@KaisarNetwork - 700k+ ZeroNode users and 100 million uptime hours
@ROVR71776 - Pre-sale sellout of first LiDAR-equipped 3D data collection device
@YOM_Official - Finalist for @seedlegals Startup Award in the Game Changer category
@roam_network: 67k+ RoamApp downloads and 850 million real data records across 191 countries
@AYDO_AI: 7k supported devices

Which projects do you see shaping the Post Web?
