2025/08/15 03:45

Sapien, a decentralized protocol for AI training, announced its token generation event.

Summary
  • Sapien will launch its own token on August 20
  • The protocol, built on Base, will reward human contributors to AI models
  • Rowan Stone, co-creator of Base, leads Sapien

Blockchain and AI are increasingly converging. On Wednesday, August 13, Sapien announced the launch of a token to reward humans who train AI. The decentralized AI data protocol, co-founded by Base’s (BASE) Rowan Stone, is set to launch the SAPIEN token on August 20.

The network’s goal is to create incentives that reward both human contribution and quality in AI models. By offering incentives to AI trainers, Sapien aims to develop models that consistently outperform others.

Sapien boasts 1.5 million human contributors

The network claims to have 1.5 million contributors, who have completed 180 million data tasks to date. Notably, Sapien records these inputs onchain, making the data used to train models transparent.

Blockchain technology offers significant synergies with AI. Crypto can provide the incentives to build AI models in a decentralized way, while also enabling greater transparency.

Sapien is led by Rowan Stone, who played a key role in developing Coinbase’s Base network, and Trevor Koverko, founder of Polymath. The firm has secured $10.5 million in investment from firms including Variant, Primitive Ventures, Yield Guild Games (YGG), and Orange DAO.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent Says U.S. Will Not Buy Bitcoin For Strategic Reserve: Fox News

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent clarified in a Fox News interview on August 14 that the U.S. will not be buying Bitcoin for its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. U.S. Bitcoin Reserve Won’t Be Bought, Scott Bessent Says Speaking with Fox News reporter Maria Bartiromo on Thursday, Bessent revealed that while the U.S. has its eyes on a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve “to get into the 21st century,” it will not be purchasing the cryptocurrency outright. “We’re not going to be buying that, but we are going to use confiscated assets and continue to build that up,” Bessent said. “We’re going to stop selling that.” “I believe that the Bitcoin Reserve at today’s prices is somewhere between $15 and $20 billion,” he added. Bitcoin Dips Despite Reaching New Heights Bessent’s latest commentary may be seen as a marked disappointment for pro-Bitcoin proponents who hoped the U.S. government would buy additional Bitcoin. Despite hitting an all-time high of over $124,000 on Thursday, Bitcoin’s value dropped to just $117,000 by the time of publication. U.S. President Donald Trump, who widely campaigned on enacting crypto-friendly regulations, signed off on at least two federal directives pertaining to the matter. In January, Trump signed an executive order that established a working group with, in part, the goal of establishing a national stockpile of cryptocurrency. In March, Trump signed an additional executive order that effectively established a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve “capitalized with bitcoin owned by the Department of Treasury that was forfeited as part of criminal or civil asset forfeiture proceeding.” Just a few minutes ago, President Trump signed an Executive Order to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.

This means it will not cost taxpayers a dime,” White House A.I. and Crypto Czar David Sacks said in a statement at the time.
