Michael Heinrich, CEO and co-founder of 0G Labs, addressed the risks of autonomous AI systems at the Token2049 conference in Singapore. He noted that while security incidents remain limited, the increasing autonomy of AI agents necessitates more robust, auditable infrastructure to prevent future threats.
0G Labs operates as a decentralized AI operating system and a Layer-1 blockchain. The company, founded in 2023, launched its Aristotle mainnet in September 2025. Its modular technology integrates blockchain with decentralized storage and compute capabilities to ensure transparency in AI operations.
The network utilizes the native 0G token, which has a total supply of 1 billion. The token is used for gas fees, staking, and service payments, and it incentivizes alignment nodes. The company has secured over $350 million in funding from crypto-focused investors.
Since the launch of the Aristotle mainnet, 0G Labs has reported more than 400 integrations. The company aims to provide verifiable alternatives to centralized AI models, particularly for sectors like healthcare and logistics, where data privacy and auditability are critical.
