Dear InfinityAI Community Members,
This is the final message from the InfinityAI team.
TL;DR
- InfinityAI will cease operations as a standalone project and will be gradually phased out within the next few hours.
- A snapshot of user points & assets has been completed. Should InfinityAI ever relaunch in any form, we will honor these recorded snapshots for eligible users.
The Rise and Fall of InfinityAI
InfinityAI has been around for about a year. At its peak, we stood at a significant position—almost everyone in the Asian crypto space had heard of us. Many KOLs and investors approached us, hoping to be a part of what we were building. Back then, the team truly believed we were on a clear and promising path.
Therefore, we chose to raise minimal funding—just enough to cover our operational needs—while retaining more equity and future product potential for the team. That’s how confident we were in our product solution and its potential to become something big.
Ironically, the ecosystem that supported us also led to our downfall. The Fractal Bitcoin ecosystem never fully took off before it began to collapse, and as one of its top projects, we felt the brunt of that downturn. Our failure to pivot quickly enough was the most critical reason behind our current result.
Additionally, InfinityAI lacked a core user scenario. Over 90% of our users likely came for the airdrop incentives—it didn’t solve any fundamental problems in either the $BTC or AI ecosystems. That made it hard to retain users when the market got turbulent; people left, and they left completely. This was something we hadn't taken into consideration when we initially started working on this project.
Lastly, perhaps Bitcoin doesn't need an ecosystem—or at least that’s what the data currently shows. Projects like Merlin that issued tokens consumed a lot of user sentiment, misleading many into thinking $BTC’s ecosystem opportunities were finally here. As a pure application-layer product, InfinityAI struggled to deliver lasting value to users in that space.
A Few Final Thoughts
Shutting down a project is never an easy decision for any founding members. Just recently, we saw the news about Phaver shutting down—and we believe it shares a similar fate and core issue with InfinityAI. It failed to solve real problems in the crypto social space, and most users were there just for airdrops. Products like this will gradually be eliminated from the crypto market in the future. This has been our most important lesson: You must genuinely solve real problems—otherwise, the market will inevitably abandon you. Hollow user numbers bring no real value to a project, only endless costs.
Some users said, “This is just how crypto projects are.” Haven’t we all seen many so-called Layer 2 chains lose 90% of their user base right after token launch? We get it from a business standpoint—but that’s never why we started InfinityAI. We genuinely wanted to build something different for the $BTC ecosystem and solve real, unique problems.
Even if today marks failure, it doesn’t mean the project was meaningless. Timing, team, market—all must align for success. We lacked certain abilities and missed the best window, that's for sure. These are the costs of building a startup project. But we didn’t want to just issue a token, call it a day, and let later users bear the losses.
We have let down all users who believed in InfinityAI from financial perspective. In the current market environment, persisting would hardly yield positive outcomes for everyone. We sincerely thank every user who has supported InfinityAI over the past few months. With our remaining funds, we will continue exploring new directions in the field of AI. The mistakes we made will serve as lessons, driving us to push further.
If InfinityAI is ever reborn in any form, users with recorded snapshots will receive their due rewards.
Thank you for everything.
The InfinityAI Team
