Following Quai’s recent $5 million strategic funding round and the launch of its Devnet, Quai Network, a scalable Layer-1 blockchain with a unique energy-backed digital currency, announced that renowned physicist and computer scientist Stephen Wolfram, Founder and CEO of Wolfram Research, has joined as an advisor.
“The more I’ve learned, the more impressed I’ve become,” said Stephen Wolfram. “This is an intellectually deep story... a far-reaching vision backed by a lot of good ideas... that have remarkable resonances with the fundamental science I’ve done.”
Stephen Wolfram—creator of Mathematica, Wolfram|Alpha, and the Wolfram Language—is one of the most influential figures in the fields of computation, AI, and theoretical physics.
Wolfram’s vast experience in complex systems, computation, and AI perfectly complements Quai’s mission to push the boundaries of blockchain scalability and real-world integration. His unique perspective will help shape Quai’s cutting-edge solutions, setting new standards for decentralized technology and thermoeconomics.
“We are thrilled to welcome Stephen Wolfram to the Quai Network team,” said Alan Orwick, Co-Founder of Quai Network. “Stephen’s insights into computational modeling and decentralized systems will be instrumental in guiding our mission of cryptocurrency adoption and setting new benchmarks in the industry.”
With support from investors such as Cogitent Ventures and MH Ventures, Quai is focused on expanding its team and enhancing its innovative capabilities, including dynamic sharding and energy-backed digital currencies.
Wolfram's advisory role at Quai Network aims to accelerate the convergence of blockchain technology with Wolfram’s pioneering work in computation and economic modeling, adding depth to Quai’s Proof-of-Entropy-Minima scalability solution and energy dollar design.
