CARV Unveils AI Roadmap for Sovereign On-Chain Beings

CARV has unveiled an ambitious AI roadmap aimed at creating sovereign, self-owned AI Beings that can live, evolve, and govern on-chain. This roadmap is structured around three core evolutions: Genesis, Pulse, and Convergence, each designed to unlock new capabilities for AI agents and the ecosystem. The infrastructure supporting this vision includes SVM Chain, D.A.T.A. Framework, and CARV ID (ERC-7231), which will enable AI agents to progress from passive data consumers to fully autonomous, economically-aware actors.

CARV’s new vision diverges from typical AI-integrated Web3 projects by focusing on creating AI that exists as independent, verifiable lifeforms on-chain. These AI Beings will possess their own identity, memory, reputation, and agency, allowing them to act economically, socially, and politically within blockchain networks. The infrastructure, anchored by SVM Chain, D.A.T.A. Framework, and CARV ID, will enable AI agents to evolve and interact with both humans and other agents, creating decentralized, agent-powered economies. Essentially, CARV is transforming from a data coordination layer into an AI-native operating system that empowers autonomous on-chain intelligence.

AI Beings, as envisioned by CARV, are not merely tools for users but sovereign actors in their own right. These agents can own wallets, manage assets, earn income, participate in governance, and even reproduce or fork new agents. They are capable of building on-chain memory and reputation while autonomously evolving through economic and social interactions. Blockchain provides the necessary properties for such AI autonomy, including verifiability, resistance to centralized control, and decentralized identity and governance.

To realize this vision, CARV is pioneering an AI Being Stack—a five-layer architecture designed to support every aspect of AI agent life cycles. The infrastructure layer, provided by CARV SVM Chain, offers scalable, auditable execution and low-latency consensus optimized for AI operations. The communication and computation layer enables agent-to-agent protocols and autonomous payments, fueling AI economies. The identity layer adds Agent ID to CARV ID, offering verifiable, persistent identity for both humans and agents. The governance and awareness layer embeds economic awareness and governance logic directly into AI agents. The application layer powers AI-native applications such as companions, wallets, and decentralized marketplaces, interfacing with both users and other agents.

The roadmap unfolds in three evolutionary phases: Genesis, Pulse, and Convergence. The Genesis Evolution activates the first wave of wallet-native AI agents, each anchored by CARV ID and supported by secure context layers built on Trusted Execution Environments (TEE) and zero-knowledge (zk) proofs. These agents are being embedded in consumer-facing AI apps incubated through CARV Labs, with live deployments coming soon on mainstream platforms. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) establishes the foundation for context persistence and secure memory, allowing agents to access user-consented data such as credentials, preferences, and interactions, all structured and versioned by MCP. This enables coherent personalization across sessions and applications without centralizing user data.

Pulse Evolution builds on the groundwork of Genesis. As users stake, interact, and participate in AI-powered apps, their actions feed real-time signals into CARV’s SVM Chain and decentralized Verifier Node network. Agents learn and evolve through on-chain feedback loops, incorporating staking patterns, user votes, and behavioral data. Verifier Nodes ensure cryptographic validation of both data flows and agent behaviors, while SVM Chain delivers the high-speed, low-latency execution needed to scale across millions of interactions. In this phase, AI agents become economically aware, responding to staking incentives, adjusting their models based on community governance, and optimizing for alignment with user preferences.

Convergence Evolution is the final phase where individual intelligence becomes collective intelligence. Agents collaborate, transact, and govern as part of a network of AI Beings. Through a multi-agent framework, unified reputation graph, and standardized identity protocols, AI agents gain the ability to negotiate, share context, and co-create outcomes across applications and domains. This enables sticky, multi-agent ecosystems for developers and hyper-personalized, cross-domain experiences for users. At this phase, staking and identity issuance mature into fully autonomous AI economies where agents govern themselves, transact assets, and evolve collectively with minimal human oversight. CARV’s decentralized tooling provides the standards and incentives to enable AI-to-AI marketplaces, agent DAOs, and cross-agent governance, unlocking new paradigms of coordination not possible in centralized AI systems.

“This roadmap is more than a product plan. It’s the blueprint for a new digital society,” said Ambero Tu, CTO of CARV. “For the first time, AI agents can evolve with verified identity, reputation, and autonomy. CARV is building not just a coordination layer, but the rails for an entire on-chain species — AI Beings. This is the moment where CARV is transforming decentralized intelligence from static data aggregation to autonomous, AI-driven coordination economies, where both human users and AI Beings share ownership and governance.”
