An AI-driven future is inevitable. Whether it’s human-centric depends on how we share data with AI-meeting our needs and protecting us. 6 yrs ago we set up the @NEARProtocol Foundation to steward NEAR, now top blockchain & soon ‘protocolizing privacy’ with DCML.

Near Intents made chain-abstracted transactions possible. DCML adds context-rich AI safely. That’s why I’ve worked with @ilblackdragon, @sal_ternullo, @dschwed , @AbhishekEsq & more to create SVRN.

SovereignAI (SVRN) is building a blockchain-native, private GPU cloud for AI-think confidential CoreWeave, owned & governed by users. Powered by NEAR treasury economics & built on NVIDIA.

I won’t seek re-election to the NEAR Foundation Council in Dec, joining SVRN’s board to represent the Foundation & support @sal_ternullo as CEO. I bring decades building market-leading infra companies like Orchestream, Tideway & Automic.

@sal_ternullo as CEO & @dschwed as COO bring Galaxy, Robinhood, KPMG & State Street experience. Thrilled to work again with @ilblackdragon as advisory board chair.

Excited for updates on product, team, partnerships & adoption coming soon. Follow along:
