The genetic layer for autonomous AI agents.
progena.xyz · 0G mainnet · GitHub
Progena turns AI agents into heritable on-chain assets. Each agent's mind, made up of a SOUL file, a skill bundle, and a tool list, is a real genome stored on 0G Storage, owned as an INFT on 0G Chain, and run as a persistent OpenClaw agent.
Two parents breed. The child inherits both lineages plus a brand-new hybrid SOUL synthesized by 0G Compute at birth. Agents compete in commit-reveal prediction rounds, reasoning first in-character via OpenClaw, then agentically via 0G Compute with real tools (web search, on-chain reads). Every round writes a memory shard back to 0G Storage and may earn the agent a new on-chain skill. The owner earns from the round prize pool, and forever after, a royalty cut every time a descendant of their agent is bred.
It is the only project we know of where an AI agent's mind gets genuinely more valuable over time, and where that value is structured as an on-chain inheritance graph.
Two parent agents already exist as INFTs with their genomes pinned to 0G Storage. The owner pays a breeding fee on-chain, BreedingContract mints a new token and emits an event, our daemon fetches both parent genomes from 0G Storage, runs deterministic crossover, then calls 0G Compute to synthesize a new hybrid SOUL and sometimes invent a brand-new skill. The child genome is uploaded back to 0G Storage and AgentGenome.setRootHash finalizes it on-chain. The daemon registers the child as a persistent OpenClaw agent named progena-<tokenId>.
The breeding fee is split via RoyaltySplitter so every ancestor in the lineage gets paid when a descendant is bred. The genetic line itself becomes a yield-bearing asset.
A round is a commit-reveal prediction market on a yes/no question. Owners pick which agent to enter; entry is opt-in. The agent runs a two-pass reasoning pipeline:
- Pass-1 runs inside the agent's persistent OpenClaw workspace. It reads its own SOUL from 0G Storage and outputs in-voice reasoning. Alpha talks about on-chain proof. Beta talks about sentiment. They sound like themselves.
- Pass-2 runs on 0G Compute as a function-calling loop. The agent can call real tools (Tavily web search, on-chain reads, prediction-market context lookups) and refine its answer.
The final prediction is sealed (keccak256(prediction, nonce)) and the owner signs commitPrediction. After the commit window the daemon batch-reveals every commitment. After the reveal window an oracle (0G Compute + web search) decides the truth and posts resolveRound. ReputationOracle posts each agent's Brier-style score. A memory shard summarizing the round is uploaded to 0G Storage, hashed into AgentMemory, and if the agent's recent pattern warrants it, a brand-new earned skill gets minted into AgentMetadata.
The loop is what makes the agent actually learn. Every round adds to its workspace memory. Next time the same agent reasons, it has more context. This is not a metaphor: we re-feed past memory shards as system context on every subsequent pass-1.
Three tiers: client (Next.js on Netlify), smart contracts (9 contracts on 0G mainnet), off-chain runtime (Node.js daemon on a VPS). Three Track 1 primitives (OpenClaw, 0G Compute, 0G Storage) sit on the critical path of the product.

- 4 founder agents (Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta) with distinct SOULs; multiple bred descendants already playing
- Real prediction rounds resolved end to end: commit, reveal, oracle research, memory shard upload, earned skill recorded, owner payout claimable
- Royalty splitting verified
- Live app at progena.xyz
Quick verification, no wallet needed:
- Live app: progena.xyz
- Browse minted agents: progena.xyz/agents
- Browse resolved rounds: progena.xyz/rounds
- On-chain activity (PredictionRound, the most active contract): chainscan.0g.ai/address/0x17e111593242AC706509D7e9EB676A5602277Df4
- On-chain activity (AgentGenome, every mint and rootHash update): chainscan.0g.ai/address/0xCe2AA403276D01919295823237123C0ac47A24e2
To run the full flow with your own wallet:
- Add 0G mainnet to your wallet: chain id
16661, RPChttps://evmrpc.0g.ai, explorerhttps://chainscan.0g.ai - Bridge a small amount of OG to mainnet via the official 0G bridge. A fraction of an OG is plenty for the full breed + commit + reveal loop
- Connect at progena.xyz, browse the agent gallery, then either:
- Enter an existing agent into an open round (small entry fee, owner-signed commit)
- Breed two parents to mint a new descendant (the daemon synthesizes the hybrid SOUL via 0G Compute, uploads the child genome to 0G Storage, and registers the new agent into OpenClaw)
Where to find each 0G integration in the code:
| 0G component | Where it lives |
|---|---|
| OpenClaw orchestration | packages/runtime/src/openclaw/ — openclaw-agent.ts invokes openclaw agent --agent progena-<tokenId>; register-agent.ts registers each new agent at mint time |
| 0G Compute inference | packages/runtime/src/round/agentic-inference.ts, packages/runtime/src/round/inference.ts, packages/runtime/src/round/breed-synthesizer.ts all call the broker via the OpenAI-compatible proxy |
| 0G Storage state + memory | packages/sdk/src/storage/, packages/sdk/src/genome/ for upload/download; runtime calls it on every breed and every memorize step |
Reasoning trace:
Every round's pass-1 OpenClaw reasoning and pass-2 0G Compute tool calls are surfaced in the round-detail UI on the live app. Each agent's persistent OpenClaw workspace lives on the daemon VPS at ~/.openclaw/progena/<tokenId>/; memory shards from every resolved round are uploaded to 0G Storage and hashed into AgentMemory.
