The AUVIN public chain mainnet officially launched today, introducing an AI self-growth and hardware-level security constraint architecture.

According to Mars Finance, on June 30th, Auvin Chain, a self-growing high-performance AI public chain, officially launched mainnet. The chain aims to address the challenges faced by AI agents in traditional financial systems, such as the lack of on-chain identity, payment limits, and a trusted execution environment. Auvin Chain integrates "AI self-growth" capabilities at the protocol layer, allowing for adaptive parameter adjustments based on data feedback. Simultaneously, it natively integrates Account Abstraction (AA) and TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) hardware isolation technologies, establishing strict consumption limits and contract whitelists for AI agents at the cryptographic and hardware levels to achieve secure and controllable machine-driven autonomous financial interactions and RWA asset management.
