Welcome to the first progress report of 2025. As we build on the success of 2024, this update provides an in-depth look at our ongoing initiatives and forward-looking projects.
We invite you to revisit last year’s achievements in our 2024 Recap and see how we’re setting the stage for a transformative year ahead.
From late December into early January, our “12 Days of Shipmas” initiative set the tempo for 2025 by showcasing a series of key ecosystem developments. Beyond the four grant announcements, the initiative highlighted several strategic updates – including the integration of wMPC and wBTC into our BYOC portfolio.
Here’s an overview:
As a special bonus announcement, we revealed our partnership with Katara, an AI-powered workflow automation platform that will enhance developer documentation and explore confidential data handling using MPC.
You can check out our 12 Days of Shipmas Recap here and the subsequent follow-up article providing greater insights into the 4 Grants here (link to tweet with an article at the end of the thread).
On January 16, we released an article on X providing further insights into our updated technical roadmap for the first half of 2025. This roadmap is packed with features, with two of the most transformative components being:
These innovations not only meet the growing demand for privacy-first solutions but also open new avenues in sectors such as finance, healthcare, and beyond.

At Davos 2025, our co-founder Kurt Nielsen illuminates how Real-World Assets (RWAs) are reshaping industries by highlighting three critical enablers:
As Kurt remarked in the video, “More is happening under the hood than meets the eye.”
At Partisia, we are proud to drive this change and empower industries to harness the full potential of decentralized technologies. You can watch the video of Kurt outlining these insights, shared on X, by clicking here.
In addition to Kurt’s feature, Alex was also invited to speak at a Roundtable organized by the Health Innovation Exchange (HIEX) within the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Tent.
We attended an event in Japan that was organised by one of the validators in our ecosystem. It attracted over 400 attendees, with approximately 80% being token holders. We hugely valued the opportunity to engage with so many of our contributors.
However, following the event, certain allegations came to light about the organisers and the marketing practices that may have enabled them to build such a sizable community. In response, we have removed the original tweet and will issue a statement in Japanese clarifying that there is no formal affiliation.
We acknowledge the positive aspects of the event and the lessons learned as we continue to refine our global engagements.
This month, our Twitter Spaces featured in-depth discussions on blockchain innovation, liquid staking, AI, and more, bringing insights from industry leaders and our team at Partisia Blockchain.
Here’s a look back at the conversations with links for you to listen to the recordings:
Our first community call of the month focused on roadmap updates, ongoing priorities, and what’s ahead. We were also joined by Florian Le Goff, CEO of Synaps, for a grant spotlight segment, followed by a live Q&A that included insights into our technical roadmap for H1 2025. Replay available here.
In the recent X Spaces session, Alexander Elhorst from Sceptre spoke about their upcoming liquid staking solution for the Partisia Blockchain ecosystem. Key topics included earning staking rewards while maintaining liquidity with $sMPC tokens, security measures through smart contract audits, and managing challenges such as the 7-day cooldown period within our 1 entity = 1 node policy.

AI and blockchain – two of the most transformative technologies of our time – are converging to reshape how we interact with digital systems. At the forefront of this are AI agents: autonomous entities capable of performing actions in both Web2 and Web3 ecosystems without human intervention. Together, they can rewrite the rules of what’s possible.
Imagine this: An AI agent autonomously moderating content on decentralized social platforms, or collaborating with researchers globally, securely training on anonymized medical data to uncover patterns and suggest treatments for rare diseases – all while keeping patient privacy intact. Or an agent in DeFi, working tirelessly to rebalance portfolios and optimize liquidity based on real-time market trends. These are some of the realities that AI agents are beginning to make possible.
But these breakthroughs don’t come without challenges. Privacy concerns, computational limitations, and trust issues loom large before greater adoption of AI agents. Partisia Blockchain is tackling these obstacles head-on, using its cutting-edge Secure Multi-Party Computation (MPC) technology to pave the way for secure, scalable, and private AI agents.
AI agents are uniquely suited to Web3, where they can act autonomously within decentralized, trustless ecosystems to deliver transformative benefits. Here are some of them:
AI agents can securely train on encrypted datasets without revealing sensitive information. This capability supports applications like:
AI agents can monitor market trends, execute trades, and manage liquidity pools—operating 24/7 to maximize efficiency without human oversight.
AI agents autonomously moderate content and curate user experiences in decentralized communities. For example, an AI agent identifies and flags harmful content for community review, ensuring fair moderation without centralized oversight.
AI agents autonomously moderate content and curate user experiences on decentralized social platforms. For example, an AI agent identifies and flags harmful content for community review, ensuring fair moderation without centralized oversight.
DAO participation is often a challenge as significant amounts of users fail to participate in the governance of projects. AI agents can act as intelligent advisors or representatives in DAOs, simplifying governance. For example, an agent summarizes DAO proposals and recommends votes based on a member’s goals and historical decisions.
In Web3 gaming, AI agents enhance user experiences by acting as intelligent NPCs or personalized assistants, tailoring gameplay to individual preferences.
These opportunities highlight the transformative potential of AI agents. But their success depends on solving critical challenges:
To function effectively, AI agents require access to large datasets, which raises privacy concerns around sensitive information like financial records or medical histories. Robust privacy-enhancing technologies are essential.
Many current AI systems rely on centralized infrastructures, introducing single points of failure and security vulnerabilities.
AI computations are resource-intensive, and traditional blockchain networks often struggle to handle these workloads efficiently, resulting in high costs and congestion.
Users need confidence that AI agents are operating fairly and securely. Transparency is key, but it must coexist with strong privacy protections.
Partisia Blockchain is pioneering solutions that address these challenges, leveraging its privacy-first infrastructure and cutting-edge MPC technology to enable AI agents to thrive in Web3 ecosystems:
Partisia’s MPC technology allows AI agents to train on encrypted datasets without ever exposing sensitive data.
Partisia Blockchain’s decentralized node network eliminates reliance on centralized servers, ensuring AI agents operate autonomously within trustless environments.
Advanced sharding and real-time finalization enable Partisia Blockchain to handle even the most resource-intensive AI computations.
Partisia’s cryptographic protocols ensure that AI agents operate without bias while maintaining data confidentiality, building trust among users and developers.
Partisia Blockchain offers a uniquely robust foundation for AI agents in Web3:
AI agents are poised to redefine decentralized systems, bringing intelligence, automation, and adaptability to Web3. Their success, however, depends on the right infrastructure – one that prioritizes privacy, scalability, and trust.
With its innovative Secure MPC technology, Partisia Blockchain is building this foundation. Together, we can realize the promise of AI agents: smarter systems that respect privacy, foster collaboration, and empower innovation.
