Holy mainnet. Ritual Chain is live. Let the Ritual begin. When I left Chainlink back in 2024, everyone thought I was crazy. The world was changing, and I wanted to be at the center of it. CHat GPT 3.5 had just come out and I was, but I was determined to help build at the convergence of blockchain and AI. And that was when I found @ritualfnd. The team at Ritual saw something early that most people are only starting to see now: markets and companies won't run on humans alone, and agents will become economic actors in their own right, holding their own wallets and working alongside us. I wanted to build the community for that future from the ground up. I still remember our first die-hard members in Discord, back when we had no roles, no events, and not much to offer besides a big idea and an alarming amount of enthusiasm from me. Watching our weird crazy group grow organically is what convinced me this project had legs. There were a lot of sleepless nights along the way. I'd do every one of them again, though I wouldn't mind getting a few back. Thank you to @niraj and @akileshpotti for the grand vision behind this technology. Thank you to the team at Ritual Foundation, especially @BunsDev, @0x_HalfMoonKid and @BenPerszyk for working alongside me day in and day out to build something that will last. Thank you to my favorite community managers @mongdiny7 and @hilalelifkara . I’m so grateful to build this global community with you. A very special shout-out to all the Ritual Discord moderators @cryptooflashh @dunken9718 @0xMadScientist and @Jez_Cryptoz . You guys are legends and I’m so happy to be working with you. I am not worthy. I could never have done this without you. Thank you to my very special event managers. And thank you to everyone who joined our Discord when it was just a glorified group chat and a couple of weirdos saying gRitual. You were here first, and today belongs to you too. We're just getting started. Mainnet is the beginning, and I'm so stoked for what comes next. ❖
