The event hosts Lunar Strategy & Neo were able to organize and drive the event all through the support of its sponsors, including ChainGPT, Internet Computer, Caliber, and Wisdomise. The event was also taken a level up with partners like RZLT, BeinCrypto, and Outlier Ventures. These organizations recognized the value of uniting key players in the crypto and AI ecosystems.

A Highlight of TOKEN2049 Week

Held during TOKEN2049 Week (April 28–May 4, 2025), with the main conference taking place on April 30–May 1, the Crypto AI Evening @ KYMA stood out as a standalone event. 

The highlight of this event was the keynote by Neo Blockchain unveiling SpoonOS. This is significant because SpoonOS represents a new operating system designed for AI agents in decentralized environments, aiming to empower developers to build and scale on-chain AI applications. 

This launch, which took place on the Neo blockchain, was backed by a $2M developer incentive fund and aligns with Neo’s vision of transitioning from a “smart economy” to a “sentient economy,” as noted in related web results. 

The unveiling was a focal point of the event, emphasizing the convergence of AI and blockchain technology, which was a key theme of the evening.

It exemplified the innovative spirit and collaborative energy that define the crypto and AI communities.
