- BVM, a Bitcoin layer 2 project, will release a platform called Truly Open AI, allowing users to deploy AI models on the blockchain for use in crypto applications.
- The AI’s storage model was built in collaboration with Filecoin, Near, Avail, Polygon, and Syscoin.
Bitcoin Virtual Machine (BVM), a Bitcoin layer 2 project, will soon release a platform that allows users to spin up artificial intelligence (AI) models, developer punk3700 told CoinDesk in a message on Tuesday.
The new feature, called Truly Open AI, will let users float AI models on the blockchain for use in crypto applications. An AI model is a tool or algorithm based on a specific data set to arrive at a decision.

“We’ve figured out a way to put AI on-chain,” lead developer punk3700 said. “It’s the same but with a much bigger impact than putting jpegs on-chain like ordinals,” he said.
“They are neural networks (technical terms for AI) where users can create their own AI models, make money from them (when people use their AI models) per call, or sell the entire models,” he added.
The developer said that Filecoin, Near, Avail, Polygon, and Syscoin will provide the storage layers for the AI models.
AI tokens remain a hot narrative for crypto traders because the technology is expected to drive key innovations in the global economy in the coming years.
However, the relationship between AI and crypto is unclear: Some market experts say artificial intelligence cannot run on a blockchain, even though scores of projects claim otherwise.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin Virtual Machine’s BVM token was trading at $2, down 20% in the past 24 hours, in line with a marketwide drop.

Pudgy Penguins is building a multi-vertical consumer IP platform — combining phygital products, games, NFTs and PENGU to monetize culture at scale.
What to know:
Pudgy Penguins is emerging as one of the strongest NFT-native brands of this cycle, shifting from speculative “digital luxury goods” into a multi-vertical consumer IP platform. Its strategy is to acquire users through mainstream channels first; toys, retail partnerships and viral media, then onboard them into Web3 through games, NFTs and the PENGU token.
The ecosystem now spans phygital products (> $13M retail sales and >1M units sold), games and experiences (Pudgy Party surpassed 500k downloads in two weeks), and a widely distributed token (airdropped to 6M+ wallets). While the market is currently pricing Pudgy at a premium relative to traditional IP peers, sustained success depends on execution across retail expansion, gaming adoption and deeper token utility.
