About

Ryvo Network: The Payment Network for AI Agents on Solana

Ryvo is raising to build, operate, and scale the payment network that lets AI agents buy APIs, data, and services per request using stablecoins, settled on Solana.

$RYVO is the governance and ownership token of the network: it governs the DAO treasury, the monthly allowance, and every proposal, and the protocol's revenue generated from operating the payment network and/or any additional services built on top.

What we're building

Ryvo Protocol, payment channels with batched clearing on Solana. Millions of micropayments compress into a single settlement transaction.
Ryvo Gateway (PSP - Payment Service Provider), the payment hub routes payments from agents to providers, handles off-chain accounting, invoicing, and compliance tooling, so providers can sell their APIs to agents with ease.
SDKs & agent tooling, how the demand side pays: SDKs and MCP tooling that let any agent or developer discover an endpoint, pay per-call, and get the response at machine speed. No signup, no card, no plan.

Both sides compound: every provider on the gateway makes the network more useful to every agent, and every paying agent makes integration more attractive to the next provider.

Team Token Unlock

Term	Value
Raise	$150,000 for 10,000,000 ICO tokens
Team allocation	12,900,000 tokens
Unlock	Locked for 18 months from launch, no unlocks of any kind before then

For 18 months, the team holds zero liquid tokens. The only income is the published $8K/month allowance.

Treasury Policy:

The allowance covers recurring, itemizable costs only. Unspent funds stay in the treasury/wallet operated by the team.
Anything extra or working-capital goes through a futarchy proposal with quotes attached. Two are pre-announced:
1. Third-party security audit, after beta phase, scoped with quotes in the proposal.
2. Legal & compliance, licensing counsel for the PSP entity.
Monthly public KPI updates from day 1: spend vs. allowance, API calls served, USDC volume settled, providers live, revenue generated.

Roadmap & Milestones

Month 1 (August 2026), Mainnet beta. Protocol deployed and verified on Solana mainnet. Basic gateway live: an RPC aggregator with Helius, Alchemy, and Triton endpoints available per-call.
Month 2 (September 2026), Onboarding. Providers (5 committed), agents, and users onboard the network; AI inference added to the gateway (float proposal).
Month 3 (October 2026), Consumer & provider interfaces. Dashboards for both sides of the network: see what your agent is buying and spending, and track your revenue as a provider.
Month 4 and beyond. Onboard more providers and make more APIs available through the Gateway; expand the PSP itself; scale infrastructure with traffic. Security audit after beta exit.
Ongoing, monthly KPI updates, end of every month.

Track record

Colosseum Frontier hackathon, honorable mention
Supported by a grant from Superteam Georgia (early 2026) the project's only funding to date; this raise is the first outside capital.
Placed #3 at Ownership Roadshow hosted by Ownership.fm, before a judging panel.

Market & Differentiation

Target market: API, data, and inference providers on one side; AI agents and their developers on the other. Agents can't hold credit cards and don't want subscriptions, they need to buy exactly the data they need, the moment they need it at machine speed with zero friction. Providers currently capture $0 from that demand.

The problem with the status quo: subscriptions systematically overcharge (most users consume less than what they pay for) and simultaneously block machine buyers entirely - existing payment flows require signups, linked payment methods, and repeated authentication, creating too much friction for machine buyer. Per-use pricing fixes both, but only if payments run at machine speed and near-zero cost.

Differentiation: per-call on-chain micropayments can't achieve this. one transaction per API call is too slow and too expensive for an agent. Ryvo Network makes millions of calls settle in a single Solana transaction, so per-request pricing works at fractions of a cent.

Versus raw x402 facilitators: they settle per-call and subsidize transaction costs.

Versus web2 PSPs: minimum transaction fees make micropayments impossible.

How the approaches to agent payments compare:

	Standard x402 facilitators	Circle Nanopayments	Arc / Tempo (payment L1s)	Ryvo
Custody	Non-custodial	Non-custodial, but batching mechanism is gated	Non-custodial, but settlement depends on the operator's chain	Non-custodial
Censorship	Open standard, but per-call settlement routes through a facilitator	Runs on Circle's stack and rails	Permissioned L1s - validator sets gated by the operator	Batching settles on a public L1; anyone can integrate the protocol directly, no operator approval
Cost	One on-chain tx per call, fees dwarf micro-sized payments unless subsidized	Gas-free sponsored by Circle	Low fees, but every payment is still an L1 transaction	Millions of micropayments amortized into one Solana tx, settlement cost per payment effectively zero

As of July 2026, Arc and Tempo operate permissioned validator sets.

Go-to-market: Providers integrate the Gateway once and their endpoints become per-call revenue streams settled in stablecoins on Solana; agents pay through the SDK/MCP tooling. Multiple providers are committed for mainnet; each integrated provider makes the network more useful to every agent, and every agent makes integration more attractive to the next provider.

Revenue model: two streams, both flowing to the DAO treasury. (1) API & inference upsell: the Gateway resells inference at a ~5% margin, and the same model extends to any API sold through the Gateway. (2) Yield earned on stablecoin float - idle stablecoins generate yield that accrues to the treasury. Revenue is collected by the Gateway's operating wallets (DAO-owned, team-managed - see IP & Legal) and swept to the DAO treasury, with both streams reported in the monthly KPI updates.

Unit economics (illustrative, scales linearly):

Upsell: every $1M of monthly AI inference volume routed through the Gateway at a 5% margin generates $50K/month for the treasury.
Float yield: every $1M of average stablecoin float resting in payment channels earns $50K/year at 5% APY; at a 2-point protocol take (the rest passed to consumers and providers, assuming 5% APY), that's ~$20K/year per $1M of float to the treasury.

IP & Legal

Domain: ryvo.network, transferred to the DAO entity at launch, managed by the team.

X: @ryvonetwork, transferred to the DAO entity at launch, managed by the team.

GitHub: github.com/ryvonetwork (organization), transferred to the DAO entity at launch, administered by the team.

Brand & IP: The Ryvo name, logo, design language, and visual identity will be transferred to the DAO entity and owned by it for the duration of its operations. If the DAO entity is dissolved, liquidated, or wound down, ownership of the brand, domain, and social handles reverts to the founding team. The treasury and all deployed protocol assets remain with token holders through the liquidation process, and the code remains open source regardless.

Deployed contracts: No mainnet contracts yet. An earlier iteration of the protocol (Colosseum-era prototype) is deployed on Solana devnet. The mainnet program will be a fresh deployment of the finalized architecture. All mainnet programs, token mints, program upgrade authorities, and treasury wallets created post-raise will be owned by the DAO entity, managed by the team.

Hosting & infrastructure: All hosting, Gateway/PSP infrastructure, and operational wallets created post-raise will be owned by the DAO entity, managed by the team.

License: All code is open source under the MIT license. Anyone can use, modify, and redistribute it.

Operating entity: The operating entity is currently being incorporated.. Licensing and compliance counsel for the PSP entity is one of the three pre-announced futarchy proposals (see Use of Funds).

Total / runway	$8,000 / ~14 months

The salary line covers the development of the full product lifecycle - protocol, tooling/SDKs, Gateway (PSP), indexing, analytics, consumer & provider facing interfaces, branding, UI/UX. Any future hire is a futarchy proposal, not a quiet expansion of this line.

Runway: 15 months; at $8,000 a month from a $120,000 treasury

1A fifth of the goal is paired on a market at close, so the token can be bought and sold from day one. The team never draws it.

By contributing to the fundraise for tokens ("Tokens"), you acknowledge and agree to the Backable Terms of Service. Without limiting the foregoing, you also acknowledge and agree to all of the following information, terms and conditions:

The above descriptions, terms, and other content were created, determined, and supplied exclusively by prospective project contributors related to the ICO and are being republished on Backable for convenience of reference only, as third-party content. Backable is a technology platform being used by the prospective project contributors, and the owners and operators of Backable and their respective affiliates are not the persons creating, endorsing, sponsoring, or discretionarily operating the ICO. Backable and its owners and operators and their respective affiliates assume no (and by participating in the ICO or otherwise using Backable, you agree that they shall not have any) responsibility or liability for the accuracy or completeness of the above descriptions, terms and other content, or any other representations, statements, opinions, projections, terms, or information made by or on behalf of the prospective project contributors in connection with the ICO.

The following terms and conditions apply between you, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, both the owners and operators (and their affiliates) of Backable or MetaDAO and the prospective ICO project contributors and related legal entity(ies) and their respective affiliates:

No Guarantees. The Tokens are provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis. Participation in the fundraise does not come with any guarantees, promises, or assurances of any kind, including, but not limited to, financial return, performance, future utility, or access to any platform, product, or service.
Not an Offer of Securities. The Tokens do not represent a security, equity, loan, or ownership interest in any entity or project. Participation in this fundraise is not intended to be, and shall not be construed as, an offering of securities, nor does it constitute an offer or solicitation in any jurisdiction where such activity is unlawful. You are responsible to refrain from participation in the ICO if your jurisdiction does not permit such participation.
Final Sale, Except As The Program Provides. Except for the amounts the escrow program itself makes claimable as described in paragraph 7, contributions made as part of the fundraise are final. No party has the discretion to refund you, and you will not be entitled to a refund or compensation on any other basis, including loss of value or inability to use the Tokens. Where the program does make an amount claimable, no party has the discretion to withhold it either.
No Liability for Losses. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, neither the organizers of this fundraise nor any of their affiliates, agents, advisors, officers, or representatives shall be liable for any direct or indirect loss or damage you may suffer, including without limitation: trading losses, loss of data, revenue, profit, or opportunity; or any errors, delays, or technical failures related to the fundraise or the Tokens.
Nature of Token MetaDAO Platform ICOs. You acknowledge and agree that the ICO is a transaction entirely by and among ICO participants, in which such participants contribute certain blockchain tokens into the sole control or custody of Solana-based "smart contracts" or "programs" as a method of establishing a decentralized autonomous decision market oriented toward the research, development, promotion and/or utilization of the above-described project. The ensuing market oracle–sometimes also referred to as a type of "DAO"-- is intended to govern both the deposited tokens and aspects of the related project, using "Futarchy". These smart contracts or programs exist independently of Backable or MetaDAO, on the Solana blockchain, and do not have a legal "owner" or "custodian", but instead will be controlled by the market-based governance process embedded in the decision market protocol, as expressed in the code of the smart contracts/programs. The deposited tokens do not represent a capital investment in any legal entity (including the legal entity referred to in the following paragraph) or group of managers or entrepreneurs, and the decision market may revoke funds out of the pool at any time, or may cease using the funds for the currently contemplated project or using them to pay the currently contemplated prospective project contributors, and may instead use them for other purposes, as determined by the decision market oracle aka "DAO." The current prospective project contributors will not immediately own or have any discretionary or managerial control of the deposit pool, and any related services such prospective project contributors provide will be on an independent contractor basis to the community, as determined on an ongoing basis by the decision market oracle aka "DAO." The tokens issued by the program/smart contract in exchange for deposited funds are not initially owned by, and are not being sold or offered by, Backable or MetaDAO or the prospective project contributors or any related entity(ies), but rather are issued by the smart-contract/system itself to enable ongoing functionality of the related decision market oracle aka "DAO". Any funds received from the deposit pool by the current prospective project contributors or future project contributors represent retroactive or prospective compensation for work done or to be done by such project contributors that is approved by the related decision market oracle aka "DAO", on the initiative of, and based on the managerial or entrepreneurial efforts of, participants in that market aka "DAO participants".
DAO-Adjacent Entity aka BORG. One or more members of the prospective project contributors may have established a particular type of legal entity related to the project. These entities, known as cybernetic organizations, aka 'BORGs", hold intellectual property related to the project and may receive the funds, if any, determined by the decision market oracle to be paid to the prospective project contributors as compensation for work done or to be done related to the project. BORGs contain special rules designed to provide accountability of project contributors to the community, including prohibiting the issuance of equity securities and requirements to consult the decision market oracle (sometimes on a signaling basis, sometimes on a binding basis) for decisions related to their work on the project and the related intellectual property and assets. Many of these entities are "segregated portfolios" of a Cayman Islands entity called Futarchy Governance SPC. Segregated portfolios provide separate layers of assets and liabilities within this entity, and each particular segregated portfolio is managed in the sole discretion of its "Manager(s)", subject to the terms and conditions of Futarchy Governance SPC and the Operating Agreement of that specific segregated portfolio. The ICO does not represent an investment in the SPC or segregated portfolio, and participants in the ICO and holders of the tokens being issued in the ICO do not have any legal rights in or ownership of the SPC or segregated portfolio, and are not owed any fiduciary or other duties by the participants in the SPC or segregated portfolio, but the SPC, in respect of the segregated portfolio, is legally required to abide by certain determinations of the decision market created by the ICO. Please review the project description above to determine the specific legal entity(ies) or other arrangements identified by the prospective project contributors. You hereby acknowledge and agree that you have reviewed, or had the opportunity to review, the information and documents presented or linked to from that description and acknowledge, consent to and accept the risks of all related legal entities and arrangements.
Understanding the Mechanism. This is an onchain fundraising mechanism with a fixed token supply and a stated funding goal. Commitments are not capped, but the amount the project receives is: everything committed above the goal remains the property of the participant who committed it. If the funding goal is not reached by close, every participant may reclaim the whole of their contribution. If the goal is exceeded, each participant may reclaim whatever part of their contribution did not convert into Tokens. These amounts are claimed, not sent. They are released by the program when you submit a claim transaction from the wallet that made the contribution. Nobody can approve, condition, delay or refuse that claim, there is no deadline for making it, and equally nobody can make it on your behalf. The same is true of the Tokens themselves in a funded raise. By participating, you confirm that you understand the program and have reviewed the relevant documentation available at https://docs.metadao.fi.

By contributing or attempting to contribute to the fundraise for Tokens, you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted the terms above.
