Moving Forward – Builders Are Proving What’s Possible With CARV’s AI Stack

DATE POSTED:August 8, 2025

August 8, 2025 – San Jose, California

CARV, the first AI infrastructure that is powering the rise of sovereign AI Beings, proudly marks the successful conclusion of the Tech Fairness Hackathon, co-hosted with FAIR3 and HackQuest.

The global hackathon, focused on building open, equitable AI and Web 3.0 technologies, drew over 600 applicants and more than 200 registered projects, culminating in 21 winning teams selected from 30 finalists.

The event showcased the global momentum behind agent-based, privacy-first, modular applications, perfectly aligned with CARV’s long-term roadmap for evolving from data infrastructure into a fully composable, autonomous AI Being stack.

CARV’s track challenged developers to go deep into four core infrastructure layers.

  • AI agent infra on SVM – Building execution and coordination layers atop CARV’s custom SVM (Solana Virtual Machine) chain.
  • Decentralized data orchestration – Leveraging CARV’s D.A.T.A. framework for real-time, consent-based agent data.
  • Modular identity and reputation – Extending the capabilities of CARV ID for agents through behavioral metadata and verifiable Agent IDs.
  • Open innovation – Demonstrating real-world agent applications that align with CARV’s consumer-focused direction.

Projects like AI World, Cipher Protocol, DootyCall, NutriMe and PeachLust emerged as leading examples of how decentralized agents can be brought to life through modular infrastructure.

These use cases range from AI-powered health apps and generative storytelling platforms to real-time financial assistants – all integrated with identity, data and on-chain execution logic.

Ambero Tu, CTO of CARV, said,

“Genesis Evolution is not a theory. Builders are proving what is possible.

“This hackathon gave us a live lab to test those ideas with builders around the world.

“The winning projects are not just demos – they are viable microcosms of what the CARV ecosystem can become.”

Ambero highlighted that several teams successfully integrated the CARV ID SDK and began experimenting with structured queries to the D.A.T.A. framework.

Furthermore, he emphasized three near-term priorities following the hackathon.

  • Deploy agent IDs at scale – Begin issuing agent IDs with behavioral metadata, enabling early versions of the Unified Reputation Graph.
  • Launch early agent marketplaces – Enable testnet-native transactions between agents for data access, compute or service exchange.
  • Drive governance participation – Encourage builders to stake veCARV and participate in early governance rounds that influence protocol parameters and developer incentives.

Victor Yu, COO of CARV, mentioned that the next step is to support the builders with on-chain deployments, testing environments and fast-track access to CARV’s infrastructure.

To continue momentum post-hackathon, CARV will provide the following.

  • Engineering mentorship for integrating with the CARV SVM chain and D.A.T.A. framework
  • Grants and ecosystem onboarding for top teams ready to productize
  • Access to real user traffic via CARV Play and partner platforms
  • Participation in the agent ID early issuance program
  • Opportunities to propose agent DAO pilots through veCARV governance

CARV sees this hackathon not as an endpoint – but as the ignition point for an ecosystem of AI Beings, agents that are identity-bound, economically aligned and designed to serve real people, not just centralized platforms.

Yu said,

“This was a proof of concept not just for our technology but for our values.

“We are proud to see builders from around the world embrace tech fairness, data sovereignty and the agent economy.

“Now, we keep building – together.”

About CARV

CARV is where sovereign AI Beings live, learn and evolve.

What are AI Beings? They are sovereign intelligences born natively on-chain.

AI Beings are designed with purpose, autonomy and the capacity for growth.

They possess memory, identity and the ability to perceive and interact with their environment – not just to execute tasks, but to make independent decisions, adapt over time and pursue self-defined goals.

Anchored by its proprietary CARV SVM Chain, D.A.T.A. framework and CARV ID/agent ID system (ERC-7231), CARV enables verifiable, consent-based AI Beings that learn, adapt and co-create with users.

Driven by CARV’s AI-first stack, consumer AI apps incubated through CARV Labs launched on Google Play, App Store and beyond, reaching billions of people, bringing agent-powered experiences and real-world incentives into mainstream digital life.

With over eight million CARV IDs issued, over 60,000 verifier nodes and more than 1,000 integrated games, CARV bridges AI agents, Web 3.0 infrastructure and real-world utility – fueling the rise of agent-driven economies.

At its core, CARV token powers staking, governance and coordination across this stack, making CARV the operating system for AI Beings on Web 3.0.
