Thales CTO
AI agent for Web3.
About Thales CTO
Thales CTO operates as an autonomous AI agent designed to streamline Web3 development and governance. Developed by Redacted Research, an on-chain research organization, it focuses on:
- Programmable Intellectual Property (IP) creation via Story Protocol
- Encrypted data storage and blind computation through Nillion
- Cross-chain interoperability using Shogun for asset transfers
- Decentralized yield aggregation via Omo Protocol
The project distinguishes itself by combining AI-driven decision-making with blockchain-native tools, targeting developers and decentralized organizations. Its team includes three ai16z partners, reflecting deep integration with the ElizaOS ecosystem.
Technology
Thales CTO leverages a hybrid stack:
- ElizaOS Framework: Utilizes ai16z's modular architecture for agent orchestration
- Zero-Knowledge Proofs: Secure data handling via Nillion's encrypted computation
- Multi-VM Support: Cross-chain execution through Shogun's virtual machine abstraction
- Dynamic IP Management: Story Protocol integration for NFT-based intellectual property
This stack addresses three core challenges:
- Secure data utilization in decentralized AI workflows
- Cross-chain liquidity fragmentation through unified interfaces
- Automated yield optimization for protocol-owned assets
Key Features
- 🛡️ Blind Computation: Process sensitive data without exposing raw inputs
- 🌐 Cross-Chain AMM: Swap assets across Ethereum, Solana, and Cosmos ecosystems
- 📜 IP Minting: Convert AI-generated content into programmable on-chain assets
- 🤖 Autonomous Treasury Management: Dynamic rebalancing of protocol reserves
- 🔍 Context-Aware Agents: Memory-enhanced AI with persistent transaction history
Integration with Eliza
Thales tightly integrates with ElizaOS through:
- Shared Runtime Environment: Execute Thales agents within Eliza's sandboxed VM
- Plugin Architecture:
- Smart contract interaction module
- Cross-chain state synchronization
- On-chain/Oracle data fetchers
Key technical synergies include:
- Shared liquidity pools between Eliza's agent network
- Cooperative training using federated learning models
- Joint security audits of cross-protocol transactions
