Description
Cysic builds full-stack infrastructure spanning silicon to protocol for trustless, scalable, and monetizable computation. Its Cysic Network is a Cosmos CDK-based Layer 1 blockchain offering a decentralized prover and verifier network for zero-knowledge proof generation and verification, with a Proof-of-Compute consensus mechanism that factors in pledged computation alongside staked tokens. Cysic Hardware develops custom ASIC chips (Cysic C1) and GPU acceleration products (ZK Air, ZK Pro, ZKPoG) to dramatically speed up ZK proof generation, while Cysic AI offers low-cost serverless AI inference, an agent marketplace, and automation tools (CyClaw, CyOps) for building and running AI agents. The company also plans Digital Compute, turning compute power into liquid, yield-bearing assets. Cysic serves ZK protocols and rollups (e.g., Scroll, Aleo, zkSync), AI/agent developers, hardware contributors (GPU/ASIC operators), and node operators (provers, verifiers, validators) across the crypto and AI ecosystems.Grant Funding
