In this episode of the 0G Podcast, host Jax Dwyer speaks with Bernardo, co-founder of Replicats, an AI-powered investment platform building on Zero Gravity (0G). Replicats is reimagining wealth management for everyday investors in emerging markets using decentralized AI and blockchain infrastructure.
Bernardo shares how Replicats gives users access to onchain portfolio managers—AI agents that optimize crypto and traditional assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, gold, and S&P 500—all without needing users to understand DeFi, trading, or portfolio theory.
You’ll learn how Replicats:
- Combines quants + LLMs to personalize investing
- Manages portfolios with specialized AI models, not just ChatGPT
- Supports high-risk and stable strategies with modular agents
- Uses 0G’s decentralized infra to scale personalized investing
- Tackles AI and LLM bottlenecks to support millions of users
- Empowers users in Brazil and beyond with stablecoin rails
If you're building or investing in the future of DeAI, AI agents, and onchain wealth management, this episode is a must-listen.
