Most of you know I co-founded and ran Ungate.
We set out to build the internet of agents eighteen months ago and we were early.
Too early.
The market wasn't ready, and despite real traction signals, we couldn't convert them into sustainable momentum at that stage.
That said, we built something meaningful:
→ The first AI AVS on EigenLayer,
→ $8B+ in restaked ETH,
→ 40+ top-tier validators onboarded,
and partnerships that validated the thesis.
And it's worth noting - a lot of what we were building toward is now playing out across the industry. People remind me of that regularly.
But I'm not one to dwell. We made the pragmatic call to move on, and I'm glad we did.
I'm fully focused on Trishool - the AI Security subnet on BitTensor (Subnet 23).
We launched in December, Phase 1 was a resounding success, and we're launching Phase 2 within the next 10 days. This is where my energy, attention, and conviction live now.
On Ungate: my original angel investor is taking over the brand and giving it a fresh start. I'll be watching from the sidelines like everyone else, and my focus is entirely on Trishool.
I genuinely wish the new team well. Onwards!

The evolution is here. The age of verifiable apps has begun.
Introducing EigenCloud, a platform for verifiable apps, services, and AI, built on EigenLayer, secured by the EIGEN token. ☁️
Crypto has spent a decade building trustless infrastructure.
Now it's time to build on it.

How do we verify the outputs of AI models? What trade-offs emerge when applying cryptography to machine learning?
This panel from @lagrangedev & @HouseofZK's ZK/AI Summit explores the boundaries between explainability, determinism, and zero-knowledge proofs - featuring insights on trusted execution, circuit design, crypto-economic trust, and the future of verifiable AI: youtube.com/watch?v=lBAA10iM…
Featuring:
- @maqstik, COO of @alt_layer
- @1HowardWu, Co-founder of @AleoHQ
- @0xnavkumar, CEO of @UngateAI

Wondering what Lagrange is all about?
Let's find out together ⬇️👇
Lagrange (@lagrangedev) is building the future of decentralized computing one zero-knowledge proof at a time. From rollups to AI, they’re enabling verifiable computation at scale.
🕸️
At its core, Lagrange is creating a ZK Prover Network which is a decentralized system that allows developers to verify huge amounts of on-chain data efficiently. Perfect for ZK rollups and scalable apps.
🕸️🕸️
Their ZK Coprocessor handles heavy computation off-chain, then proves it on-chain trustlessly. Think big data + AI + crypto = verifiable outcomes without bloating the blockchain.
🕸️🕸️🕸️
With DeepProve, Lagrange brings ZK to AI. It’s a zkML library that lets us verify machine learning outputs (like AI decisions) 158x faster than older methods. That’s a verifiable AI in action.
🕸️🕸️🕸️🕸️
They’ve also introduced State Committees cryptographically secure ways to prove state changes across chains. No bridges. No trust assumptions. Just seamless cross-chain interaction.
🕸️🕸️🕸️🕸️🕸️
Lagrange has already teamed up with @zksync, @alt_layer, @hetu_protocol, @ungateAI & @calderaxyz proving its value across AI, health diagnostics, and scaling infrastructure.
💰🤑
Backed by $17.2M in funding (led by Mantle), Lagrange is gearing up for mainnet. Their ongoing “Lagrange Expedition” is a major step to reward early contributors.
Prove anything. Trust nothing.
@lagrangedev is setting the standard for zero-knowledge infrastructure across Web3, AI, and beyond.
So tell me, which part of Lagrange’s stack are you most excited about?

The zk/ai summit by @lagrangedev and @HouseofZK bringing in goats like @maqstik @UngateAI @LayerLabs_ @AleoHQ to chat machine verifiability in a post-trust world
UNGATE retweeted
Can ZK prove that AI models behave as expected? Can AI-generated outputs be independently verified?
The first ZK/AI panel answered these questions and much more - with a spicy twist 🥵
Huge thanks to the incredible panelists: @maqstik (@alt_layer), @1HowardWu (@AleoHQ), @0xnavkumar (@UngateAI), @samcassatt (@LayerOnEth) & @omarryehia1 (@lagrangedev) 🤝

5/ Ungate AI: Trust Between Agents
@UngateAI uses Filecoin and @eigencloud to build a trust layer between AI agents. Filecoin stores execution metadata, ensuring agent decisions are immutable, traceable, and tamper-resistant.

UNGATE retweeted
We trust machines with our most important decisions—money, security, identities.
But trust without verification is blind faith.
@UngateAI, a leading AI AVS on EigenLayer, is building the Trust Layer for AI with $5B+ in ETH already restaked.

Ungate Wukong has just arrived - headlining the fight for trustable AI!
xitter.gq/UngateAI/status/190781…
What if I told you a story?
A story where AI runs everything—your money, your news, your choices. But no one knows who’s really in control. Decisions happen in the dark. The agent tells you “Trust me bro”
But what if you couldn’t?
A long time ago, Wukong—the Monkey King—fought against the heavens, refusing to be controlled. Now, he’s back. But this time, the battle isn’t in the heavens. It’s in the digital world, being the guardian that holds AI accountable and beneficial to humanity.
AI agents shouldn’t be a black box. We deserve to be in the know.
Wukong fights for trustable AI—where decisions are proven, not hidden. Where trust isn’t blind but verifiable.
Ungate Wukong is here. Watching out for you while you are going about your daily business.
Are you in?
UNGATE retweeted
Great to see Wukong out in the wild. Know how hard @0xnavkumar and team is hustling!
We are offically open for (monkey) business —Schiztoshee, Moodee’s vibe-sniffing monkey, just met Wukong, the monkey king of beneficial AI in the concrete jungle of trust infrastructure!
Together, they’re swinging @Moodeedotdev into SocialFi chaos: your mood flips markets, taxes shift, and bags grow.
Wukong’s Verifiable Agents Cloud (TEEs + Proof of Agency + @eigencloud ) makes our AI agents trustless and mission-critical. Perfect for degen plays that can’t rug.
Ape into Moodee now and vibe with the monkeys!

Replying to @UngateAI @Moodeedotdev
Glad to see this was thought of. Not that trivial to make agents actually trustless.
