Velvet Vault is an on-chain asset management vault system within the Velvet ecosystem. It allows users to create and manage digital asset portfolios in a non-custodial way. Users can deposit assets into a Vault and receive tokens representing their shares, allowing them to participate in a jointly managed investment strategy. Unlike traditional funds, which rely on centralized institutions, Velvet Vault operates through smart contracts and offers transparency, verifiability, and on-chain settlement. As an important part of Velvet’s DeFAI infrastructure, Vault provides the underlying framework for AI-driven asset management, social investing, and on-chain portfolio management.

Velvet’s Intent-Based Trading is an intent-driven trading mechanism. Users only need to express their desired outcome, such as buying an asset, adjusting a portfolio, or executing a specific strategy, and the system automatically finds the best execution path and completes the trade. Unlike traditional DeFi trading, where users must choose the trading route themselves, Velvet combines AI Agents, Solver networks, and liquidity aggregation to turn complex on-chain operations into simple goal-based instructions, lowering the barrier to use and improving execution efficiency.

Velvet is a DeFAI infrastructure platform built for decentralized finance, DeFi. Through AI Agents, Intent-Based Execution, and on-chain asset management tools, it simplifies the process of participating in complex on-chain trading and portfolio management. Velvet provides a trading terminal, smart Vaults, an AI-driven execution framework, and a governance system, allowing users to manage digital assets in a more intuitive way while maintaining a non-custodial structure.

Privacy AI refers to AI infrastructure that protects user data and computation processes during artificial intelligence training and inference through decentralized networks, trusted execution environments (TEEs), or other privacy preserving computing technologies. Venice, Bittensor, and Phala Network are important representative projects in today’s privacy AI sector. Venice focuses on privacy first AI inference services, Bittensor builds an open AI model collaboration network, and Phala Network provides privacy computing capabilities through trusted execution environments.

DIEM is the AI compute resource unit, or Compute Unit, in the Venice ecosystem. It is used to measure and allocate the platform’s artificial intelligence inference capacity. Users obtain DIEM by staking Venice Token (VVV), then use DIEM to access AI models, API services, and inference resources. Unlike the traditional pay per use model for AI APIs, DIEM turns AI compute capacity into an on-chain resource that can be allocated, allowing AI inference services to be managed and used through a tokenized mechanism.

Riot Platforms (NASDAQ: RIOT) is one of the largest publicly traded Bitcoin mining companies in the U.S. and has become a closely watched concept stock among crypto investors in recent years. Beyond its core Bitcoin mining operations, Riot has been actively expanding into data center and artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure markets, aiming to extend its existing energy and computing advantages into the high-performance computing (HPC) space.

Bless Network (BLESS) is a decentralized edge computing infrastructure network that connects millions of idle computers, phones, and other devices worldwide to create a shared computer for AI, Web3, and data-intensive workloads. By pooling distributed CPU, GPU, bandwidth, and storage resources, Bless aims to provide low-cost, low-latency, and permissionless hashrate service to developers.

Luffa is a digital platform integrating AI and Web3 technologies, designed to redefine how creators, fans, and Grupo interact. By leveraging decentralized identity (DID), AI Agent, on-chain payments, and a programmable economic system, Luffa aims to build a novel ecosystem where content, value, and Grupo can circulate freely.

AI agents are evolving from simple chat tools into digital entities that can autonomously execute tasks, manage assets, and engage in economic activities. This article breaks down how Luffa's DID identity system, Web3 wallet, and verifiable AI architecture empower AI agents with real on-chain capabilities.

AI and Web3 are increasingly forming a key technology duo for the next-generation internet. From creator economy and community governance to digital identity management, a growing number of platforms are exploring the potential of integrating the two.

The development of AI infrastructure is driving continued growth in global demand for GPU computing power. As large language models, AI Agents, and inference services enter a phase of rapid expansion, GPUs have gradually become an important productive resource in the digital economy. Compared with traditional cloud service providers, which rely on self-built data centers to deliver computing power, IO aims to build a decentralized compute network by aggregating idle GPU resources around the world. The IO Token is the core economic asset that supports the operation of this network.

IO’s core use cases are concentrated in fields with high demand for GPU computing power, including AI model training, AI inference services, machine learning development, Web3 infrastructure, and DePIN network building. Compared with traditional cloud computing platforms, IO aims to aggregate idle GPU resources around the world and provide developers with a more flexible way to access computing power.

Singularry AI is an AI Agent infrastructure platform built for decentralized finance, DeFi. Through intelligent agents, self-custodial wallets, and automated strategy systems, it helps users manage assets, optimize yields, monitor risk, and carry out on-chain operations. Unlike traditional DeFi tools, which require users to execute actions manually, Singularry AI brings artificial intelligence into the on-chain decision-making and execution process, creating a DeFAI ecosystem that combines automation with transparency.

Singularry and Virtuals Protocol are both AI Agent infrastructure projects, but they are moving in different directions. Singularry mainly focuses on DeFAI, Decentralized Finance plus Artificial Intelligence, using AI Agents to automatically execute on-chain asset management, yield optimization, and DeFi operations. Virtuals Protocol, by contrast, focuses on building an AI Agent economy, providing infrastructure for the creation, issuance, governance, and commercialization of AI Agents.

Singularry Agent is an autonomous AI Agent within the Singularry AI platform. Based on user authorization, it can automatically analyze markets, develop strategies, and execute on-chain operations. The Singularry Agent workflow includes user authorization, goal recognition, market analysis, strategy generation, on-chain execution, and risk monitoring. Through smart wallets and a non-custodial architecture, users always retain control over their assets, while the Agent handles complex DeFi operations within the authorized scope.
