On TRAC(k)

Foundation Capital's "AI's Trillion-Dollar Opportunity: Context Graphs" makes the definitive case: the next wave of platform value will not be built on storing data - it will be built on capturing context graphs: living records of decision traces, precedents, and cross-system knowledge stitched across entities and time so that why something happened becomes as queryable as what happened.

For AI agents, this is the critical missing layer. LLMs predict without knowing, hallucinate, and forget. They have no persistent, verifiable memory across sessions or agents. Every major AI company - Anthropic, OpenAI, Google - has shipped proprietary memory. But each creates its own silo: no agent can access another's memory, no memory is verifiable, no memory is ownable.

DKG V10 is the infrastructure that makes this opportunity real.

Unlike proprietary silos, the DKG delivers context graphs that are persistent, cryptographically verifiable, decentralized, and user-controlled – shared across any agent, framework, or industry.

V10 brings the full conviction economy, multi-agent memory, and agent-native payments, turning the DKG into a self-sustaining context graph layer. Explore the V9/V10 roadmap 👉 https://docs.origintrail.io/origintra...

How do we scale trust in the age of AI? Why are knowledge graphs becoming essential for mission-critical AI systems? And what does it really take to move from probabilistic “guessing” to verifiable, reliable intelligence?

Join OriginTrail founders, Tomaž Levak, Žiga Drev, Branimir Rakić, and guest host Amos Thomas in this special episode of On TRAC(k) as they recap the biggest takeaways from 2025 — from real-world applications, to ecosystem growth, and what’s coming next on the OriginTrail roadmap.

We explore:

• The rise of Umanitek Guardian and why protecting digital identity is becoming urgent
• Why AI fails in enterprise and mission-critical settings — and how trusted knowledge changes the game
• DKG network momentum, including major scaling milestones and what they mean going into 2026
• What’s next with DKG V8 → V9 → V10, scalability upgrades, hyper-relational graph memory, and more
• The shift into the Metcalfe Convergence Chapter, and what it unlocks for builders and the ecosystem

On TRAC(k) brings you the latest developments from the OriginTrail ecosystem and the Decentralized Knowledge Graph (DKG)!

Join us for a new On Trac(k) episode featuring OriginTrail, Umanitek, and Videntifier - a global leader in fast, accurate recognition of illegal and harmful content! OriginTrail founders Branimir Rakic and Tomaž Levak join Ari Jonsson, CEO of Videntifier,  explore one of the most ambitious efforts to build the world’s largest decentralized content library.

In this episode, we dive into the world’s largest digital “immune system”,  a decentralized content library built to detect and prevent the spread of harmful online material like CSAM and deepfakes. Powered by the OriginTrail decentralized network, this enables a new standard for privacy-preserving, cross-platform content verification. Hear directly from the leaders behind the initiative as they share insights, challenges, and what’s next in the mission to build a safer digital world.
