Building the decentralized data layer with Powerloom’s Swaroop Hegde
Swaroop Hegde, CEO and Co-Founder of Powerloom, joined CryptoSlate’s Editor-in-Chief, Liam “Akiba” Wright, and CEO Nate Whitehill on The SlateCast to discuss the future of decentralized data layers. Backed by notable names like Blockchain Capital and Filecoin, Powerloom is setting a new standard for composable and decentralized data solutions, reshaping how users interact with on-chain data and fostering innovation across web3 applications.The Challenge of Reliable On-Chain DataSwaroop began by highlighting the current inefficiencies in accessing and verifying on-chain data. Traditional methods rely heavily on centralized sources, such as CoinMarketCap or specific blockchain dashboards, leading to potential data manipulation and outdated information.“Most of the usage when it goes outside of the dApp is actually coming from some sort of centralized indexer,”Swaroop noted, emphasizing the vulnerabilities inherent in such a setup.Powerloom addresses these issues with a decentralized node network, enabling real-time data computation without the need for a centralized intermediary.“With over 5,300 nodes, even non-technical users can contribute to the network, ensuring verifiability and reliability,” he explained.Powerloom’s Unique Approach to Data CompositionUnlike traditional indexers, Powerloom operates on a demand-driven system that aggregates data atomically. Swaroop explained,“We don’t sit and index all the data. Instead, we focus on composing data dynamically based on demand.”This approach allows Powerloom to cater to a variety of use cases, from trading data to lending rates across multiple chains.The platform’s composability extends beyond Uniswap and Aave, creating “data markets” that empower users to craft personalized queries and insights. These markets are decentralized and verifiable, ensuring users can trust the integrity of their data.Introducing Generative Prediction Markets (GPM)A standout feature discussed was Powerloom’s Generative Prediction Markets

Jesse Glass explains Decide AI’s push for on-chain AI agents and privacy-first LLMs.
In a recent episode of the SlateCast, CryptoSlate’s Editor-in-Chief Liam “Akiba” Wright and CEO Nate Whitehill sat down with Jesse Glass, Lead AI Researcher at Decide AI. The conversation delved into Decide AI’s groundbreaking efforts to merge artificial intelligence (AI) with blockchain technology, focusing on privacy-preserving identity verification, the role of decentralized AI in advancing AGI (artificial general intelligence), and the future of data ownership.Revolutionizing Identity VerificationJesse Glass opened the discussion by explaining Decide AI’s core mission: to create AI-driven applications that verify human identity without storing sensitive data on-chain. This approach enables "civil resistance" and ensures higher data quality while maintaining user privacy.“Decide AI is a set of AI applications and integrations for LLMs and identity. For ID, we use AI to verify that you're a human without storing that data on-chain,” said Glass.The system integrates with both blockchain and Web2 applications, offering a novel solution to data protection. With increasing scrutiny on how personal data is handled by centralized entities, Decide AI’s strategy could serve as a blueprint for privacy-first verification protocols.AI on the Blockchain: Challenges and PossibilitiesDeploying AI on-chain is a significant challenge, but one that Decide AI is actively addressing. Glass shared insights from his experience deploying GPT-2 on the Internet Computer (ICP) blockchain. He highlighted the technical hurdles posed by blockchain’s computational constraints, noting that traditional AI workflows rely on off-chain compute resources provided by large corporations.“When I experimented with deploying GPT-2 on the Internet Computer, it exposed how spoiled we’ve become outsourcing compute to megacorporations,” said Glass. “On-chain AI presents challenges like quantization, CPU cache vs. instructions, and WASM compilation, which requires optimized data structures.”Glass’s perspecti
