Unchained Summit - Global Web3 & Crypto Events

As AI advances towards greater autonomy, an important question emerges: who owns the intelligence, and who benefits from the value it creates? At #UnchainedSummitIndia, Haley Lowy of @SingularityNET introduced ASI:Chain, a Layer-1 blockchain designed specifically for decentralised artificial intelligence. She explained how its BlockDAG infrastructure supports parallel processing and how it enables AI agents to have their own identities, build reputations, transact and coordinate onchain. She also presented Omega, a multi-agent AI platform that works alongside ASI:Chain, giving agents the ability to learn, retain memory and carry out tasks while operating on decentralised infrastructure. The vision is to build an open AI economy where intelligence, participation and value are not controlled by a handful of centralised players. #AnEventbyAeternum #AI #Blockchain #DecentralizedAI #Web3

The future of digital assets will depend not just on adoption, but on the trust and infrastructure built around it. At #UnchainedSummitIndia, Rajagopal Menon, Vice President at @WazirXIndia, shared a roadmap for responsible growth of India's digital asset ecosystem. He explored the expanding role of tokenised assets, programmable payments and connected settlement, while highlighting the need for stronger custody practices, operational resilience, meaningful disclosures and greater accountability. He also touched on how AI could simplify the digital finance experience, provided users remain in control of their decisions. Building a sustainable ecosystem will take more than technology. It will require the industry to build together, with trust at its core.

India’s crypto investment landscape is changing, and investor expectations are changing with it.

A more mature market calls for informed participation and stronger fundamentals. @getkoinx | @GreshamINTL | @CosmicE57570

Blockchain's value extends far beyond financial transactions. In agriculture, it can bring transparency, traceability and accountability to the entire supply chain. At #UnchainedSummitIndia, @mithilesh_desai, Chairman of JackfruitKing, demonstrated how blockchain can connect the journey of jackfruit from orchard to shelf. His presentation explored how a shared, tamper-resistant ledger can record farmer details, harvest data, processing and logistics, allowing consumers and other stakeholders to verify a product's origin and journey through QR and NFC technology. He also highlighted JackfruitKing's work on India's programmable CBDC pilot, where blockchain-based records supported carbon-credit payments to farmers, showing how verified data can enable more transparent transactions. An example of blockchain moving beyond digital assets to solve real-world challenges, strengthen agricultural supply chains and create greater value for farmers. #AnEventbyAeternum #Blockchain #AgriTech #SupplyChain #Web3

Technology creates opportunities, but its real impact is measured by how it improves people's lives and strengthens the economy. At #UnchainedSummitIndia, Chief Guest Shri Ashish Shelar(@ShelarAshish), Cabinet Minister of Electronics, Information Technology, Artificial Intelligence & Cultural Affairs, Government of Maharashtra, spoke about Maharashtra's potential to connect its financial strength with technology talent and entrepreneurial energy. He highlighted the state's AI ambitions, including its roadmap to attract ₹10,000 crore in investment and develop 2 lakh AI professionals. He also emphasised the importance of responsible digital innovation, stronger cybersecurity, clear legal frameworks and customer protection, particularly as AI, blockchain and tokenisation find wider applications across financial services. His message was clear: innovation must go hand in hand with trust, accountability and solutions that deliver real economic value. #AnEventbyAeternum #AshishShelar #Maharashtra #DigitalTransformation #AI #Web3

India’s digital asset industry needs a regulatory framework that encourages innovation while safeguarding investor interests. At #UnchainedSummitIndia, Dilip Chenoy, Jaideep Reddy, Rohan Bagai, Anirud Sudarsan and Cal Evans brought their legal and industry perspectives to the discussion, examining India's evolving regulatory landscape, the balance between innovation and investor protection, and the importance of legal clarity in strengthening the country's global competitiveness.

India has already seen major shifts in how people hold and move value, from paper certificates to dematerialised securities and UPI. Could tokenisation be the next step? At #UnchainedSummitIndia, Cristian Ulloa (@Crypto_Crazey), Co-Founder and CEO of @liquidloansio and Crave Management, explored India's readiness for tokenised real-world assets, drawing attention to the growing role of real estate, gold and other asset classes. He also broke down what makes an asset suitable for tokenisation, the importance of legal structures and investor protections, and how tokenisation can create access to opportunities that were traditionally limited to larger investors. His message was clear: asset first, then the token.

The internet transformed how information moves. The next step is to rethink how value moves across the world. At #UnchainedSummitIndia, Sanmesh Kalyanpur (@sanmeshkaly), Director at @finternet_org, presented a vision for an open financial infrastructure built around interoperability, shared networks and programmable transfers. He brought this vision to life through examples of ongoing pilots, from purpose-bound agricultural credit and warehouse receipts to a securitisation marketplace designed to connect lenders, banks and platforms through common standards. The focus is on building financial networks that are open, accessible and designed to work for everyone.
