Chainbase announced the official establishment of the Chainbase Foundation, a non-profit organization that aims to fully support the development of the Chainbase ecosystem and is committed to building a decentralized, AI-native data finance (DataFi) infrastructure to provide core support for accelerating the circulation and application of structured data assets.
With the increasing integration of AI and blockchain technology, data is becoming a key resource for the next generation of financial and computing ecology. However, the current data system is still highly fragmented, unstructured and difficult to coordinate. Chainbase provides underlying capabilities by building a "hyperdata network" to promote the transformation of data from a passive resource to a programmable, composable and tradable asset. The establishment of the foundation is precisely to further stimulate community vitality, ensure protocol governance and security, and promote the practical application of data assets.
The foundation will focus on three core directions:
First, in terms of community development, the foundation will encourage the development of data-native applications and infrastructure construction by funding developers, data contributors and content creators, and promote community participation and ecological deployment around the world. Through the native token $C, community contributions will receive sustainable incentives linked to the long-term value of the network.
At the protocol governance level, the Foundation will be responsible for coordinating Chainbase Network upgrades, security management, and fund operations, including supporting the continuous operation and maintenance of the AVS architecture (currently more than 600,000 ETH have been supported through Eigenlayer), multi-layer security audit mechanisms, bug bounties, and transparent governance processes to ensure the continuous evolution and open governance of the network.
In addition, the Foundation will also focus on promoting the real-world application of data assets. It will work with AI models, DePIN networks, application builders, etc. to expand the use of structured on-chain data in AI agents and data finance scenarios, including innovative models such as building on-chain attribution markets and attention tokenization, to unleash data liquidity and smart economic potential.
As the demand for verifiable, efficient, and machine-readable data continues to rise, the establishment of the Chainbase Foundation will lay a solid foundation for the next stage of AI and crypto integration and accelerate the construction of an open ecosystem for data as a financial primitive.
