0G Labs Launches Aristotle Mainnet and Token Generation Event

0G Labs, the decentralized AI protocol, has launched its highly anticipated Token Generation Event (TGE) and its very own Aristotle mainnet. The protocol has also launched its native token called 0G. This latest release is a major progress for the decentralized AI (DeAI) movement that has the goal of breaking Big Tech’s monopoly in the artificial intelligence industry.

0G Labs Launches Aristotle Mainnet

The Aristotle mainnet, live as of today, follows months of development and rigorous testing on the Galileo Testnet, where it surpassed performance benchmarks and demonstrated readiness for large-scale AI applications. The network is supported by more than 100 ecosystem partners, including major players such as Chainlink, Google Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, Coinbase Wallet, Binance Wallet, and MetaMask.

From the beginning, Aristotle will have a strong infrastructure with validator support, integration with DeFi protocols, and developer tools, including indexing, SDKs, RPCs, and better security services. 0G Labs says that the network can handle 11,000 transactions per second, making it a high-performance Layer-1 blockchain suited for AI execution that can be verified.

The project's native token, 0G, is already listed on major crypto exchanges, including Binance, Kraken, Upbit, and HashKey, making it easier for investors to buy it from the start.

Speaking on the launch, Michael Heinrich, CEO and co-founder of 0G Labs, emphasized the importance of democratizing AI:

“Together, we are building the first AI chain with a complete modular decentralized operating system, ensuring AI is not locked away in Big Tech silos but made available as a resource for everyone.”

0G Labs has raised $35 million in equity funding, and the 0G Foundation has added another $30 million through AI node and token sales. This gives them a lot of money to help the ecosystem grow.

Despite the launch buzz, the wider AI-crypto sector has seen a dip. CoinGecko says that the sector declined 2.5% in the last 24 hours, bringing the entire market worth to $32.19 billion. The AI Agents category fell by over 6% to $5.7 billion, and the AI Applications category fell by 2.4%.

Even though the market is poor right now, 0G Labs' Aristotle mainnet shows that AI and blockchain are becoming more popular together, which could change the future of decentralized intelligence.
