Sapio Network

What if the best reserve in crypto built itself? Every reserve, index, and fund has the same hidden component: a committee deciding what goes in it. Central banks, index boards, DAO governance — different costumes, same role. They meet on a schedule. Markets don't. By the time the committee acts, the opportunity is gone. In traditional finance, 85% of professional fund managers fail to beat a simple index over a decade — and still charge 1–2% every year. The passive alternative is decided by a committee that updates quarterly while markets move daily. In crypto the problem is worse: $24.5B sits in DAO treasuries that governance can't deploy, $313B in stablecoins earns below the risk-free rate, and the first generation of on-chain fund managers — Set, Rari, Enzyme, Babylon — failed or collapsed. The intelligence to allocate well already exists. Thousands of people do it every day. No system captures it and turns it into something you can hold. Sapio replaces the committee with an open competition. People who believe they know which assets should back the currency stake their own capital. If they're right, they earn rewards. If they're wrong, they lose their stake — not yours. The competition is continuous, the allocation non-discretionary. No governance vote decides what enters the reserve. Only proven improvement does. The output is Multi: one token, backed 1:1 by real assets, redeemable at any time, that continuously evolves because competitors keep improving what's behind it. You hold one token. The network does the work. Three integrated systems make this work. The competition engine runs the staked tournament. We call the consensus mechanism Proof of Improvement. Bitcoin's PoW asks "who secures the ledger?" Ethereum's PoS asks "who validates transactions?" PoI asks a different question entirely: what should back the currency? The reserve management layer holds the assets and guarantees redemption. The exchange layer falls out for free — every Multi in circulation is structural trading depth across all reserve assets. No external LPs. No impermanent loss. Why now: prediction markets proved competition discovers truth better than committees, but stop at signal. Flatcoins remain unsolved. The first wave of on-chain fund management is dead. Passive investing has surpassed active globally — the demand for set-it-and-forget-it exposure is proven; what's missing is the version that removes the committee. Reserve coordination has no public infrastructure. That's what we're building. Sapio AB is a Swedish startup. Seven years of mechanism design research went into the current architecture. Five mechanism designs failed before this one worked. 90% of the core mechanism is coded, with 382 test cases, built on top of audited Reserve Protocol DTF code. ChainSecurity has scoped the full audit. We are in the EU Blockchain Sandbox Cohort 3, with KTH Royal Institute as academic backing and a DFINITY Foundation grant. The team is seven — mechanism design, full-stack engineering, product, community, GTM, legal. We are pre-seed, raising ahead of Alpha launch Q2 2026. If you want to build protocol infrastructure that doesn't exist anywhere else — multilateral matching, on-chain reserve accounting, competition settlement, exchange-layer routing — talk to us.

Our vision is a world where there are no constraints to progress for the biosolutions urgently needed by a growing population.

These unnecessary constraints cause too many businesses to fail before their time. We partner with you to help you trial, validate, and scale your microorganism from lab to 1,000L. This dramatically derisks your scaling process and accelerates your time-to-market. And its 10-100 times cheaper than existing solutions.

Skiftr

Skiftr focuses on solving workforce redeployment caused by AI and economic downturns. When automation or a downturn reshapes an industry, millions of people are left to figure out what they can do next - and the hardest part is rarely the loss itself, but not knowing where to go. That's the moment Skiftr exists for. We help each person understand the skills they already have, see how those skills translate as the market shifts, and find a direction forward - including paths they'd never have considered on their own. It's a hard problem. A person's experience rarely maps neatly onto a single job title, and demand for skills moves faster than most people can track. We turn messy, real-world career histories into a clear picture of what someone is capable of and where that capability is valued. McKinsey estimates around 12 million job transitions a year in Europe alone. Helping people make those moves with confidence is one of the defining challenges of the coming decade.
