Intuition launches InfoFi mainnet with $8.5M funding
Intuition launches its layer 3 Information Finance-driven mainnet to build a decentralized trust layer for AI and the internet following an $8.5 million funding round.
- Intuition has officially launched its mainnet after raising $8.5 million in funding, marking its transition from testnet to full production as it builds a decentralized infrastructure for verifiable, on-chain information in the AI and Web3 sectors.
- The network introduces a novel data model using Atoms, Triples, and the $TRUST token to create a Token Curated Graph that enables users and AI systems to access, verify, and monetize information.
According to a press release received by crypto.news, Intuition protocol has officially launched its mainnet on Oct. 29. The milestone marks the company’s transition from beta and testnet phases into full production, as it aims to establish a “public, composable trust layer” for the internet and artificial intelligence.
The mainnet enables developers and AI systems to create, curate, and access verifiable on-chain data as it aims to power the Information Finance sector. The protocol claims that its infrastructure can turn information into a “programmable, verifiable, and monetizable asset class.”
The Intuition network runs as an Arbitrum ( ARB ) Orbit Layer-3 rollup settling to Base ( BASE ), optimized for high-throughput information operations. This technical design allows the mainnet to achieve high throughput and low transaction costs, which are essential for managing vast amounts of on-chain data and metadata
The launch comes after a successful beta test on Base which drew in more than 244,000 users. The testnet processed more than 5.3 million transactions and over 5.1 million verified attestations. In fact, the most recent testnet cycle recorded more than 17.5 million transactions from over 900,000 unique accounts within a period of eight weeks.
So far, Intuition has garnered a total of $8.5 million in funding, combining earlier venture investments with proceeds from its recent, fully subscribed community token sales on CoinList and Legion. The project has received support from major crypto firms including Superscrypt, Shima, Fidelity’s F-Prime, ConsenSys, and Polygon ( POL ).
In addition, the project is also backed by prominent angel investors such as ConsenSys founder Joseph Lubin and PayPal Board Member Jonathan Christodoro.
Inside Intuition’s roadmap for InfoFi
Founder and CEO of Intuition, Billy Luedtke, said that the launch of the project’s mainnet is a significant milestone that marks years of progress to make information decentralized and distribute its value across the web ecosystem.
“We’re moving beyond using decentralized rails solely for finance, toward decentralizing information itself—so that people, communities, and AI agents can access the data they need, when they need it, from sources they trust, without intermediaries—and share more directly in the value they help create,” said Luedtke in his statement.
With the Intuition mainnet, developers will be able to tap into a shared open network inhabited by verifiable data the same way that the cloud made it possible for users to share computing power instead of running separate servers. With this mechanism, developers no longer have to build their own databases and reputation systems from scratch.
On the users’ side, their online information — such as identity, relationships, preferences and other data — can now flow freely across apps and AI tools. This means that artificial intelligence systems can access information with clear provenance and reputation that they can cite and transact. The team hopes their infrastructure will lessen AI’s reliance on poisoned or unreliable information sources.
At the core of the protocol’s data-centered model are two primitives. The first are Atoms which are canonical, token-curated identifiers representing discrete pieces of information, such as an identity, concept, or claim. The second element consists of Triples which process subject-predicate-object statements.
When combined, Atoms and Triples form a Token Curated Graph that determines both relevance and credibility via staking, bonding curves, and fee flows.
Developers on the Intuition network can use the protocol’s native token, $TRUST, for gas, data creation fees, curation via staking on vaults, governance via bonded TRUST, and query fees. In addition, end users can gain fractional ownership through the knowledge they contribute.
Moving forward, the team plans to expand its mainnet’s reach by collaborating with firms from web2 and web3, such as Google Cloud, MetaMask, Zero Gravity (0g), World, Fleek, Recall Network, Consensys, and Gaia.
