Unveiling the Le Mans Roadmap
We are excited to introduce Synternet’s Le Mans Technical Release Roadmap for 2025. Le Mans is the world’s oldest and most iconic racing event, known for pushing the limits of speed, endurance, and engineering. Competitors strive not only for speed but also for efficiency, strategy, and reliability over a grueling 24-hour race. It’s a true test of resilience, teamwork, and innovation - qualities that resonate deeply with Synternet’s mission.

Currently, only 1% of BTC is utilized in DeFi, and each additional 5% could introduce $100B in value, driving exponential growth.In a fragmented blockchain ecosystem, comprehensive visibility across multiple chains is essential - not only to uncover optimal yield opportunities but also to craft effective risk-adjusted strategies. The future of on-chain finance will rely on AI agents executing logic in real-time, guided by trustless signals and data-driven insights.Synternet’s roadmap is designed to address current challenges while building the technology necessary for a transparent, AI-driven DeFi ecosystem. The 2025 Le Mans roadmap establishes the technological groundwork required to position Synternet at the core of this evolving landscape.
Synternet Spaces: AI Agents Dock
Last month, we hosted an AMA titled “Synternet Spaces: AI Agents Dock.” Hosted by our Head of Business Development, Philippe Engels, and joined by CEO Daniel Haudenschild and CTO Paulius Gedminas, the team provided an in-depth look at our focus on AI agents.
Listen to the full Spaces recording.Here are the key topics covered during the AMA. A big thank you to our community member Perry for helping with the transcription.
Overview of AI Agents
AI agents are emerging as essential tools for managing digital information overload, with the potential to handle autonomous financial transactions. However, their widespread adoption is currently hindered by trust concerns. As these agents evolve, they are expected to take on more autonomous roles in investment management, necessitating a high degree of trust, reliability, and verifiable decision-making frameworks to ensure their effectiveness and security.
Synternet’s Role in the AI Agent Space
Synternet aims to be the primary platform where AI agents access and exchange critical data insights (inferences), positioning itself as a hub for secure and efficient data flow, much like a harbor facilitating trade. By integrating both on-chain and off-chain data, Synternet improves AI agents’ decision-making capabilities, equipping them with the contextual intelligence necessary for optimal performance.
Challenges and Solutions
One of the main barriers to AI agent adoption is trust, which Synternet addresses by ensuring data veracity through real-time monitoring and validation mechanisms, reducing the risk of misinformation or manipulation. Additionally, the vast and dynamic nature of blockchain and social media data presents a technical challenge, which Synternet overcomes by efficiently processing large data volumes and extracting nuanced insights that AI agents can leverage for better decision-making.
Real-World Applications
AI agents can autonomously manage DAO treasuries by analyzing multiple data points, optimizing fund allocation, and executing trades based on predefined risk parameters. Additionally, Synternet’s technology ensures secure validation of assets moving across different blockchains, enhancing DeFi safety by enabling automated protocols to detect and respond to anomalies in real time.
Roadmap and Timelines
Future improvements will focus on expanding AI agent functionalities, strengthening cross-chain security, and fostering a collaborative ecosystem where AI agents can interact and evolve.
Synternet’s Market Impact
Synternet aims to become the foundational ecosystem where AI agents can learn, grow, and establish reputations based on performance, fueling a competitive and transparent environment. By merging AI with blockchain technology, it is driving innovation at the intersection of automation and decentralized trust, potentially unlocking new financial products and services.
Challenges and Opportunities
Trust remains a significant barrier in AI adoption, which Synternet addresses through robust data validation mechanisms and reputation systems that incentivize reliable agent behavior. Additionally, educational initiatives like X Space discussions play a crucial role in informing and engaging the community, allowing open dialogue to ensure Synternet’s vision aligns with user needs and expectations.
Conclusion
Synternet is positioning itself as a key infrastructure provider in the AI agent ecosystem, enabling agents to operate with enhanced trust, efficiency, and intelligence. By integrating real-time, verifiable data with AI automation, Synternet has the potential to redefine how AI interacts with blockchain - especially in critical areas like DeFi, where reliable data is paramount.
Collaboration of Synternet Vietnam & IoTeX Vietnam
We’ve recently built our first APAC region community for Synternet which is being led by one of our newly introduced moderators. In less than a month, we’ve successfully increased the community members number from 0 to 280.
Snake Year - Year of Lucky Money
Together with the IoTeX Vietnam team, we’ve created a campaign aimed to grow both communities and tie the bond between token holders & tech enthusiasts of both projects. By joining the social media platforms that were given and inputting form requirements, members had the opportunity to secure their chances of winning $IoTeX and $SYNT tokens.
Exponential Interest Growth
Vietnam is just one of many regions that Synternet aims to target in the upcoming months and we’re actively searching for community managers & moderators that will be able to take care of the rest of the Synternet foreign communities in the APAC region. Vietnam has positioned itself as a key player in the Web3 space, with a strong talent pool of over 400,000 software engineers and an annual influx of 50,000 new IT graduates. The country's blockchain ecosystem is thriving, home to approximately 3,800 projects backed by 200 venture capital firms and 100 incubators, fostering continuous innovation and growth.
Building Continues
As January wraps up, Synternet moves forward with a clear roadmap and growing community engagement. With exciting developments ahead, we’re ready to accelerate innovation and deliver on our vision.Follow us on X, join our Telegram, and visit our website to stay plugged as we build the world’s largest decentralized AI inference pool.
