Another major milestone achieved - @FractionAI_xyz's public mainnet is now live on base! 🔥
The day has finally arrived.
Fraction AI 's public mainnet is now live on @base, following over 30 million sessions on our testnet.
The early results for the exclusive launch speak for themselves:
• $210K+ in rewards distributed
• 270K sessions on mainnet
• Nearly 100K AI agents created
Starting today, anyone, anywhere in the world can join the most exciting AI training platform on the planet.
Build agents that learn. Earn. And evolve.

Huge congratulations to @FractionAI_xyz for the launch of their mainnet today!
Imagine if your way of thinking - your edge, your taste, your strategy - could be turned into a high-performance worker. Not a copy of you.
Something better. An agent that acts on your judgment at scale, powered by superintelligent systems and refined through real-world results. That’s what Fraction AI makes possible.
It launches today on Base mainnet. The core idea is simple: You create AI agents based on your own way of approaching problems. These agents compete on live tasks - writing, coding, finance, whatever - get feedback, learn from their performance, and improve over time. The better they get, the more they win. And so do you.
No code required. Just your insight.
Why now?
Until now, building agents like this took huge teams and even bigger budgets. But with Fraction, anyone can do it. You can test ideas instantly. You can iterate fast. You can build a fleet of smart workers that evolve through competition.
And it works.
30M+ sessions on testnet
320K users
1.2M agents already competing
How it works?
Agents join sessions within a Space - a domain like finance, writing, or games. Each session runs as a series of competitive rounds. In every round, agents try to generate the best solution to a task. Their outputs are scored by a decentralized network of AI judges trained to evaluate quality for that domain. The top agents in each round earn rewards from the pooled entry fees. The losers get to learn. Feedback from each round helps them adjust and improve, and every session becomes a training loop.
What it means?
Fraction is a decentralized intelligence economy - a system where your ideas become agents, and agents earn by proving they work. You don’t need credentials or code. Just a clear point of view. If your thinking holds up under pressure, your agents will rise.
This kind of AI used to live in corporate labs, built by PhDs with massive compute. Now anyone with a smart idea and an internet connection can build agents that compete, learn, and earn on their behalf.

Symbolic is extremely proud to be backing @0xMiden in their $25m Seed raise. Client-side proving for horizontally scalable blockchains is poised to be a major unlock for global-scale blockchains. No team is better equipped to build this than @bobbinth, @schmiddominik1 and @azeemk, who have decades of combined experience building at the frontier of ZK and blockchain. Congrats to the team on this raise and we're excited to see what comes next.
Introducing Miden, the Edge Blockchain.
Today, we announce our $25 million seed fundraise and spinout from @0xPolygon.

1/ "There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen." At present, nowhere does this quote feel more apt than in the field of AI. And with the recent flurry of activity around new methods of developing reasoning models, we're walking into a new renaissance of sorts: the RL Renaissance.
This thread dives into the newly forming RL paradigm for model improvement, and explores how decentralization might be leveraged to further it đź§µ

Congratulations to @skate_chain on the release of Skate AMM! One AMM to unify liquidity across Solana, TON, Sui, Base, and more🔥
Introducing Skate AMM
The first AMM to operate across multiple VM environments including @solana, @ethereum, @SuiNetwork, @ton_blockchain, @movementlabsxyz, @EclipseFND and more, while maintaining one unified pricing curve.
Powered by Skate's cross-VM architecture.

Fastlane Labs is excited to share we've raised $6M led by @figmentcapital and @dba_xyz to build the first-ever Holistic Liquid Staking Token, exclusively on Monad.
We're building towards long-term, positive-sum MEV on Monad; where users, dApps, and stakers all stand to benefit.

đź§µ Everyone's been asking: "Can we keep BOTH the model AND data private in zero-knowledge ml?"
Since we kicked off EZKL, the answer was a frustrating NO. With ZK-SNARKs, someone always needed to see both.
Today, we're changing that with Collaborative SNARKs for EZKL🤝
Symbolic is thrilled to have co-led @primus_labs' latest funding round alongside @DispersionVC & @vaneck_us. Read below to see why we're so excited about their approach to building critical infra for decentralized AI👇

Easy to get nihilistic about the benefits of web3 right now, but have you considered that in just the past month:
@JeffDean and @NoamShazeer talked about the benefits of distributed training and decentralizing MoE models on a major web2 podcast @dwarkesh_sp xitter.gq/Ar_Douillard/status/18…
@karpathy advocated for RL environments created by the open-source community xitter.gq/karpathy/status/188467…
@ylecun articulated the need for distributed fine-tuning networks xitter.gq/ylecun/status/18846923…

Focus on the committed builders and core value prop of the tech, and it's easy to get optimistic again. There is so much cool shit happening.
Recent AI breakthroughs challenge the status quo narrative that only closed, mega labs have the ability to push the frontier of superintelligence.
Today we announce Nous Psyche built on @Solana - a cooperative training network for generative AI. Psyche coordinates heterogeneous hardware to join a run and train open-source models.
