Decentralized AI Project Morpheus Goes Live on Mainnet
Like other decentralized AI networks, Morpheus seeks to curtail the negative side effects of AI, such as centralization, censorship, and data monopolies.

Morpheus, one of several blockchain projects seeking to decentralize artificial intelligence, is up and running in the wild, the team behind it announced Monday on X (formerly Twitter).
Like other decentralized AI networks, Morpheus seeks to curtail the negative side effects of AI, such as centralization, censorship, and monopolistic control of data.

The Morpheus-Lumerin Compute System is now on mainnet, with contracts deployed and subnets with consumers onboarding.
A historic step toward decentralized AI compute!

Similar decentralized AI projects include Bittensor, dAIOS and Boltzmann Network. Morpheus recently joined the Decentralized AI Society, a trade group focused on fighting the tech giants that wield massive control over AI data.

Morpheus was built using the codebase for Lumerin, a protocol that runs on the Arbitrum blockchain (which itself is a layer-2 running atop Ethereum, the largest smart contract network.)
Morpheus went live on a public testnet, or simulated experimental environment, in July. The project promises personal AIs, also known as "smart agents," that can empower individuals much like personal computers and search engines did in decades past. Among other tasks, agents can "execute smart contracts, connecting to usersâ Web3 wallets, DApps, and smart contracts," the team said.

Andrew Gault, the venture capitalist who funded the quantum hardware labs now threatening bitcoin, says the industry is looking in the wrong place. Google's own security team moved in the same direction in March.
What to know:
- Security experts warn that the most urgent quantum threat to bitcoin and the broader financial system is not wallet keys but the encrypted authentication data already moving between institutions and being quietly harvested today.
- Adversaries are pursuing a âharvest now, decrypt laterâ strategy, stockpiling encrypted interbank messages, payment records and...
