Introduction: Create, own, and profit from AI agents and data assets. The LazAI testnet breaks down the closed data barriers of AI, ensuring that every output can be trusted, allowing creators to achieve complete ownership and profit realization in an open on-chain AI economy.

LazAI Testnet officially launched

This is a Web3 native AI network where you can create, own AI agents and data assets and profit from them. It addresses issues like data monopolies, poor quality control, and unfair incentive mechanisms through programmable DATs (Data Anchoring Tokens), on-chain traceability mechanisms, and transparent value flow mechanisms. This is an ideal platform for building AI agents that align with value and contribute high-quality data.

Users can now join the whitelist event in advance to prepare for the upcoming Lazbubu – AI partner DAT. Developers can start building on the testnet now.

Breaking down the core barriers to AI development

The current development of AI faces the following core issues:

· Data Sharing Dilemma: Lack of secure, standardized data exchange mechanisms, prone to abuse or leakage.

· Data Quality Black Hole: Lack of a unified framework to measure and verify the value of datasets.

· Infrastructure Gap: Lack of a complete system that connects data, models, and computing power and can verify output results.

· Unfair Revenue Distribution: Contributors rarely receive rewards transparently and fairly based on their impact.

LazAI provides an open and verifiable AI economic system jointly owned by participants to address these defects, placing you at the core of co-building the ecosystem.

Testnet Highlights

The LazAI testnet provides a complete infrastructure for building, owning, and scaling AI in a decentralized environment:

· Alith Framework – A developer-friendly environment supporting multiple AI model architectures, providing cross-language SDKs in Python, Node.js, and Rust. It features high-performance inference, native on-chain connections, and smooth workflow management.

· Data Anchoring Token (DAT) – The standard for AI assetization, returning ownership and revenue rights to users. Rewards are based on the value and quality of the data or models provided.

· Out-of-the-box Scalability – Includes a DAT market for AI native asset trading, the platform LazPad for deploying AI agents, and the DeFAI protocol aimed at AI applications. Verifiable computing, decentralized data sources, and model hosting make the stack modular and adaptable.

Through the collaborative work of these components, LazAI sets new standards for an open, verifiable AI economy.

Developer Guide: Five steps to join the testnet

1. Contribution and Building – Starting development using the API, debugging tools, performance monitoring, and optimization guides of the Alith framework.

2. Generate Proof – Create cryptographic proof for data quality and model performance and anchor it on-chain.

3. Validate Results – Validate outcomes through QBFT verification, economic security, and fraud detection. Learn more.

4. Earn Rewards – Earn DAT through a transparent incentive mechanism based on contributions.

5. Integration and Expansion – Access scalable, OpenAI-compatible inference APIs and integrate through native DAT. Learn more.

The LazAI testnet supports decentralized storage, OpenAI compatible interfaces, native DAT tokenization, verifiable computing, and iDAO governance, creating a secure and composable AI development environment. Developers are welcome to join the LazAI developer Discord group to raise any technical questions.

Governance and Security

LazAI adopts an iDAO governance model, driven by community decisions, resource allocation, and ensuring accountability. This community-led model is strengthened by LazAI's verifiable computing framework. It ensures that the network remains user-centric and prevents abuse during the transition from testnet to partner DAT, LazPad, and mainnet.

Limited Time Participation: LazBubu partner DAT is about to go live

The LazPad whitelist event will close on August 20, when the AI partner DAT will go live on the testnet. After it goes live, you can mint your own LazBubu DAT and start nurturing it.

Whitelist users will unlock blind boxes containing rare, precious, and unexpected rewards.

Access the LazPad whitelist page now, complete tasks, and prepare to mint your DAT and interact with it on August 20. Join the LazAI official Telegram community and the LazAI Chinese Telegram community to ask questions and engage with the community. Join now to be among the first to experience, earn rewards, and explore the world of LazAI partners.
