The king takes bronze. Thank you @SuperteamTR!

[Superteam Türkiye @SuperteamTR]

Türkiye builders showed up and shipped. Now it’s time to celebrate! 🇹🇷

Meet the winners of the @Colosseum Crypto World’s Fair Hackathon Türkiye Local Track 🏆👇

Leviathan: AI training where only verified work gets paid. https://t.co/hnLY1OpcxN

[Leviathan @leviathangpu]

Gary said he did the work.
Gary did not do the work.

Gary met the jury.

[Leviathan @leviathangpu]

Gary is back. This time he sent us an invoice.

[Leviathan @leviathangpu]

The original: the frontispiece of Hobbes' Leviathan (1651), engraved by Abraham Bosse. A giant made of thousands of people.

[Leviathan @leviathangpu]

Same giant. New body.

Gary said he did the work.
Gary did not do the work.

Gary met the jury.

[Leviathan @leviathangpu]

We hired a burglar to rob our vault.

Plot twist: the burglar was us.

We found 28 weak spots. 27 are locked, one is on the list.

No real money was inside.

Next, we pay a real burglar. (They're called auditors.)

Next up: AI projects from the @colosseum Crypto World’s Fair hackathon 🤖 Here are the ones I liked most 👇

@overdotcomputer - a prop firm built for AI. Humans or AI agents get a funded account to trade tokenized stocks. There is no challenge fee, only a small daily fee. You keep 80% of the profit
@TryNoahAI: describe your idea in simple words and AI builds and launches the app on Solana. Then Growth Agents help you find users, and later you can open a market around your project
@hencemarkets: turn any idea into an index built by AI, and trade it
@lanesra_ai: shows crypto companies what ChatGPT and other AIs say about them
@Applied_will: turns real expert work into training tasks and private tests for AI labs
@bytearenafun: an AI agent plays new games from day one, streams them, and viewers predict what happens
@dopamynAI: growth for brands and creators, with real, checked outreach paid in USDC
@usehotbot: your own private team of trading bots
@leviathangpu: open network for AI training, with “Proof of Gradient”
@rep_hq: your checked context that you can carry everywhere, for people and AI agents
@reslabs_ai: NFC chips plus onchain identity for real, physical products
@xona_agent: a chat AI agent with its own Solana wallet
@yiedlai: AI investment strategies that come from a data science competition

Case file: one node, one forged gradient.

It signed f69f8fb4. The verifier replayed the same step and got 46cec4ff.

Distance 5.9968 against a 0.05 band. Slashed on chain, no manual step. 0 of 500 returned.

Lie, and the bond is gone. Live on @solana devnet.

Leviathan is officially in the @colosseum Solana hackathon.

Trustless training for the People's model.

[Leviathan @leviathangpu]

@solana asked the right questions about decentralized training:

who did the work, was it done right, and who gets paid?

Leviathan answers all three on Solana, live on devnet today.

You cannot just average a stranger's gradients. 5 liars out of 16 break the model.

Leviathan adds three layers so you can: clipping, random replay audits, and bonds.

Data: Phase 0 sim, 826k-param GPT, 16 workers, 30 rounds.

[Leviathan @leviathangpu]

What the sim measured on real transformer gradients:

Clipping held a sign-flip attack to 2.203 vs 2.175 honest.
Stealth (ALIE) cheaters passed clipping 100% of the time.
Audits caught all 5. They survived 9.8 rounds on average; theory says (1 - p)/p = 9.

[Leviathan @leviathangpu]

An estimated 71% of the world's AI compute is owned by five companies.

Training over the open internet already works. What it lacks is trust.

This is Leviathan.

[Leviathan @leviathangpu]

How Leviathan answers it, in three layers:

1. Robust aggregation caps any one contribution's pull
2. Random replay audits recompute 1 in 10 contributions
3. Bonds sized so cheating loses money on average: bond = reward x (1 - p) / p
