Two days ago, @SentientAGI announced a partnership with the streamer community at @Sidekick_Labs. Their creators will be using Sentient Chat for research and trading, putting months of development into a live, public workflow. It was a subtle announcement, but it signaled something most AI projects don’t have yet: real users integrating the tech in real time. That matters because most AI narratives in Web3 are still built around speculative tokens or closed models dressed up as “decentralized.” What is slowly gaining real attention on CT is the shift toward open, verifiable, and collectively owned intelligence. Sentient is positioning itself at that layer. Instead of packaging another black-box AI with a token, @SentientAGI is building around three long-term primitives: • Collective ownership of agents, models and compute through $SENT and GRID • On-chain attribution that links humans to AI outputs • Sybil resistance through Proof-of-Humanity, ZK credentials and partnerships like @billions_ntwk Its $85M backing from Founders Fund, Pantera, Framework and others, along with 100+ integrations across Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, NEAR and more, is not just investor signaling. It reinforces the thesis that AGI will either be captured or composable. What is surfacing on CT today is not meme traffic. It is early adoption energy. Engagement is still small, but the tone is consistent. Builders and AI-aligned communities are tracking token unlocks, GRID expansion and PoH-linked identity as infrastructure, not speculation. This is not “AI season.” It is the architecture phase for decentralized intelligence. The ones paying attention now will not be the ones scrambling when the narrative shifts from curiosity to inevitability.
