Ai16z, a venture capital fund operated by AI agents, has partnered with Ryze Labs to announce AICombinator, an initiative supported by a $5 million fund.
This program will empower developers to create new projects that combine AI capabilities with cryptocurrency technology. This is an important development in the intersection of artificial intelligence and blockchain.

Ai16z's unique position as the first venture capital fund managed by AI agents has enabled it to pioneer new approaches to funding and building ecosystems. Using platforms like daos.fun, creators can raise Solana (SOL) Tokens to fund their projects, while AI agents manage the capital allocation process.
The focus of this initiative is the Eliza framework, a sophisticated tool developed by ai16z. It allows developers to build and deploy interactive AI characters, seamlessly integrating with platforms like Discord and X (formerly Twitter).
AICombinator provides developers with early access to the latest features of the Eliza framework and a portion of the $5 million fund. This opportunity is particularly attractive to creators wanting to develop AI agents using cryptocurrency technology with applications across various fields, including finance, gaming, and decentralized governance.
These AI agents will perform various tasks, adapting to changing situations, and even mastering skills. This is a new era of decentralized AI applications, with the emergence of AI-driven innovation in blockchain, driving significant shifts in how technology is leveraged for decentralized applications (dApps).
"The emergence of AI agents using cryptocurrency platforms is the most significant paradigm shift since the rise of DeFi in 2020," said Matthew Graham, managing partner of Ryze Labs.
Graham also emphasized that the AICombinator initiative plays a crucial role in creating an ecosystem where AI agents using cryptocurrency infrastructure can thrive. On the other hand, Ryze Labs sees this collaboration as a natural progression of their mission to support transformative technologies.
Ryze Labs is widely known for supporting successful names like Solana, Polygon, LayerZero, and Wintermute. Shaw, a partner at Ai16z, describes this initiative as a "major step forward" in promoting decentralized AI.
"Our goal is to promote decentralized AI, seek out the most talented developers in the field, provide them with resources and attention, and offer them a pathway to live comfortably and grow without having to sell Tokens," he said.
The role of AI in venture capital
With AICombinator, both Ai16z and Ryze Labs are aiming to shape the future of decentralized AI. They will support projects integrating artificial intelligence with blockchain technology. This not only highlights the growing potential of AI-crypto innovation but also lays the groundwork for a new era of technological advancement.
The AI-first approach is revolutionizing venture capital by optimizing processes and eliminating human biases, allowing the company to better identify and support emerging technology trends.
With the ongoing program, the tech community expects breakthrough projects, from trading algorithms to creative applications. AICombinator is poised to drive advancements in AI and cryptocurrency.
"The future of integrating cryptocurrency and AI is now. We take pride in supporting developers and projects that are doing this," Graham added.
Meanwhile, some users have criticized Shaw for recent actions, turning Ai16z's activities into a joke online.
"Shaw turned Ai16z into a joke and then got angry when others made money from it. Instead of admitting this was beneficial for Ai16z, greed drove him to launch his own ELIZA and ruin both," GinoTheGhost reported.
