Overview
Description
The 21Shares Artificial Superintelligence Alliance ETP (ticker: AFET) provides investors with liquid exposure to a first-of-its-kind decentralized AI ecosystem created by the merger of Fetch.ai, SingularityNET, Ocean Protocol, and CUDOS, a union of four pioneering projects forming the largest open-source AI alliance dedicated to accelerating the path to Artificial General Intelligence and Superintelligence.
Benefits
Decentralizing computing power
The Artificial Superintelligence Alliance (ASI) has secured over $200 million in dedicated AI computing infrastructure, creating the world’s largest decentralized AI compute network. This bold initiative aims to challenge the dominance of tech giants and break the stranglehold of centralized AI gatekeepers.
By combining enterprise-grade data centers with community-contributed resources, ASI delivers premium GPU performance at up to 50% lower cost than leading cloud providers. With 524 validator nodes and globally distributed capacity, ASI ensures low latency and reliability.
This approach turns traditional cloud economics on its head: as the network grows, costs decline for developers while performance improves. With the global cloud market surpassing $500 billion and AI workloads growing rapidly, ASI is poised to capture significant market share by offering a more cost-effective, high-performance, and open alternative to today’s centralized model.
Next-gen AI ecosystem
The ASI Alliance has successfully executed a significant token integration, uniting Fetch.ai, SingularityNET, Ocean Protocol, and CUDOS to create one of the largest decentralized AI ecosystems in the industry.
This merger creates unprecedented utility for FET token holders, spanning autonomous agents, Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) development, data marketplaces, and distributed computing. It also demonstrates its innovation power with ASI 1 Mini, the first Web3-native large language model. ASI 1 Mini runs efficiently on minimal hardware, supports modular reasoning and autonomous workflows, and seamlessly integrates into the ASI ecosystem, allowing the community to stake, train, and co-own the model.
By blending efficiency, accessibility, and decentralized ownership, the ASI Alliance is not just building AI infrastructure; it’s reshaping the economics of intelligence. Positioned at the intersection of Web3 and AI, ASI is set to be a transformative force with massive potential for growth and impact.
Infrastructure for the intelligence era
The ASI Alliance is building ASI Chain, the first Layer 1 blockchain explicitly designed for decentralized AI coordination, autonomous agents, and cross-chain interoperability. Unlike traditional cloud providers that introduce systemic risks or legacy blockchains built for simple asset transfers, ASI Chain is purpose-built for AI-driven workloads, featuring a scalable architecture, enterprise-grade security, and a throughput target of over 1,000 transactions per second. At its core is ASI 1 Mini, enabling on-chain intelligence that no other Layer 1 currently offers.
Layer 1 blockchains are the cornerstone of the industry's future, with the market already valued at over $1.2 trillion. Leading networks command an average valuation of $45 billion, highlighting the massive gap to ASI’s current $1.7 billion valuation. This positions ASI to emerge as the defining Layer 1 of the AI era, bridging blockchain infrastructure with the intelligence economy.
As the integration of AI and blockchain is projected to reach $350 billion by 2030, ASI Chain is perfectly positioned to capitalize on this growth. With major enterprise partners such as Deutsche Telekom, Bosch, and Alibaba Cloud backing validator infrastructure, ASI Chain is poised to accelerate AI adoption across industries, presenting investors with massive growth potential.
