Top level comment after stumbling on this and reviewing things: this is yet another crypto scam. Avoid touching any of this with a 10 foot pole.

Hi HN, I’m Alex — I lead AI development at Treasure.
Happy to answer any technical questions around our agent tooling, memory persistence approach, or broader AI architecture.
Also curious to hear any feedback or ideas on what we’re building — would love to learn from the community here.

> We’re exploring a different model: tokenized agents that travel across games, social apps, and DeFi, carrying their skills, memories, and personalities — and are fully ownable and tradable by users.
State. You're talking about state.
Blockchain isn't capable of storing state without transaction fees, and is expensive per-byte. It certainly isn't capable of executing AI queries like you describe, either: you're obviously and blatantly not using blockchain for any meaningful part of any of this. My guess is that you're using it solely for some kind of proof of ownership of an NFT so you can feed an LLM some basic RAG. Fine.
The state that you're describing includes previous queries. You're not storing this data on blockchain. This means that users are trusting you with their private data, and more importantly, trusting that if they "sell" their agent that you're properly going to cleanse it without race conditions. Failure to do so would introduce a privacy nightmare where previous owner's context would be accessible by new owners.
> Agents that autonomously play a crypto game and can earn rewards
This implies access to a blockchain wallet. You're suggesting that your state management has access to a blockchain wallet. Nobody, ever, should trust an AI agent with their wallet's private keys, and especially one that stores state off chain.
What you're outlining is a ticking time bomb where anybody who uses this is making themselves susceptible to complete privacy violation and potentially financial risk if you or your team makes any mistake on your internal source code or data management. This is fine, as long as you comply by established compliance laws for PCI. You're not, though. Are you?
None of this even touches on the basic flaw with this entire thing: you're also running and executing all of this stuff on your own hardware. If more than 20 people actually wind up pretending to care about any of this, your costs will exponentially increase to the point of uselessness because you haven't decentralized AI.
From what this post says, you haven't solved any problems. You've introduced several, and could ruin lives with it. This looks like yet another crypto scam.

I regret spending time on HN on this because you obviously are just trolling.
