TrustList summary

ID Theory is a specialist liquid cryptoasset fund established in 2018. Since 2019 it has followed a single thesis: that autonomous software agents will become the largest users of blockchain networks, paying for computing power through decentralised AI, for settlement through decentralised finance, and for data and intellectual property through decentralised science. The firm says this demand is now measurable on-chain, and that it invests early in the networks supporting this activity, taking concentrated and liquid positions. It publishes dated theses on decentralised finance, decentralised science and decentralised AI to explain its reasoning at the point of each investment.
