Open is a verifiable compute infrastructure project that bridges AI, DeSci, and blockchain applications through off-chain execution with on-chain result recording. Open's Twitter Score is 14 out of 1000 as of August 2026, ranking #68,967 among 487,620 tracked accounts.
Open was founded by Joshua Meng and operates under Open Foundation Limited. Its core technical component, the Open Virtual Machine (OVM), handles compute-intensive workloads such as AI training off-chain while committing results on-chain to preserve verifiability. This approach allows developers to run demanding processes without sacrificing the auditability that blockchain infrastructure provides.
Open draws on information abstraction from RSS3 and RSSHub to complement its compute layer. The project is also affiliated with the Open Information Initiative and Arbitrum. Its OpenAgent framework enables developers to launch AI agents backed by verifiable compute, targeting both DeFAI and DeSci use cases. Open has also introduced an ecosystem engagement-reward system called $OPEN points. Its most recent public communication was a Q2 2025 community letter published on June 30, 2025.
Open has published 536 posts and has been mentioned by 47 accounts a total of 72 times across the platform.
