Rivalz
Rivalz is redefining AI infrastructure by creating an AI Intel Layer to unlock new agentic economies. Built on a dual-chain DePIN architecture using Dymension and Arbitrum, Rivalz addresses one of the biggest bottlenecks in AI today: access to AI-ready, verifiable, and secure data. As we envision the web3 space to become agentic and overtake humans in the amount of transactions over time, what Rivalz is building is key for enabling this future. The core challenge that Rivalz is addressing is the need for AI-ready, verifiable and accessible data and later on intelligence. Rivalz offers a hybrid solution combining decentralized storage and high-speed agent-centric connectivity networks that cater specifically to AI's demands, ushering in the era of the agentic economy.

Quantler
Quantler is a blockchain for creating, analysing, sharing and running of decentralized structured investment products. Create structured products (such as an ETF) in equities or cryptocurrencies using themes. As there are a lot of the tokenized products being launched (currently over 1 900 available) the structured products for these assets are lacking behind (such as sector-based ETFs). Using Quantler’s blockchain anyone can create structured products (for regular assets such as Equities and cryptocurrencies) and run them on a decentralized network (much like smart contracts). Quantler also allows for regular assets, for this market Quantler’s solution is more flexible and has a lower costs base (targeted for exchanges, family offices and investment managers). The QUANT token’s intrinsic value is dependent on the AUM (asset under management) by the entire network. Quantler is like a Vanguard or BlackRock, but then in the form of a network.
