About us
Building the Transaction Layer for the AI Economy
Vision
The next wave of commerce won't be driven by humans clicking buttons - it will be powered by billions of AI agents making autonomous decisions. Every data lookup, API call, and compute request becomes a potential transaction. Current payment infrastructure simply can't handle this future. We're building the system that can.
Team
Built by the team that brought USDC to market and led Project Hamilton at the Federal Reserve, we combine deep experience in blockchain technology, distributed systems, and financial infrastructure.
Our work has roots in years of research at MIT's Digital Currency Initiative, culminating in breakthroughs in parallel transaction processing that enable unprecedented scale.
