I am proud to announce that I will be presenting AFS-UI (Agentic File System UI) as a keynote speaker and panelist at Harness4UI 2026, held in conjunction with ASE 2026 in Munich, Germany. Harness4UI is the inaugural workshop on Harness Engineering for Generative UI, bringing together researchers and practitioners working on the architectures, infrastructure, tooling, and engineering practices behind the next generation of AI-powered user interfaces. I’m excited to share our work on AFS-UI and discuss how LLMs, DID, blockchain, and agentic systems are reshaping software development and user experiences in the AI era. Looking forward to meeting researchers, builders, and practitioners from around the world in Munich this October.

One important point in the decentralization discussion is often misunderstood: A healthy ecosystem does not emerge simply because governance is decentralized. It emerges when more people can independently create real value on top of the protocol. Historically, this was extremely difficult. Building meaningful applications required: - strong engineering skills - deep protocol understanding - infrastructure knowledge - deployment and operational expertise As a result, most ecosystems remained heavily dependent on a small core developer group. AI changes this equation. For the first time, it becomes possible for almost anyone to become a capable builder with the assistance of AI agents. But there is also a major risk: Simple “vibe coding” alone will not create a sustainable ecosystem. Without proper structure, protocols, identity, memory, security, observability, and execution boundaries, the result quickly becomes: - low-quality AI slop - insecure applications - fragmented experiences - unmaintainable systems - incentive gaming instead of real products This is exactly the problem we have been trying to solve with AFS and our broader AI-native engineering efforts. The goal is not merely to generate code. The goal is to create an AI-native development framework where: - anyone can build with AI assistance - blockchain, DID, payments, and agents become naturally usable primitives - applications remain composable and maintainable - systems stay observable and governable - security and execution boundaries remain enforceable - builders can focus on intent and product value instead of infrastructure complexity In other words: The future is not “everyone becomes a programmer.” The future is: - everyone can become a creator, - while the underlying framework preserves structure, quality, and ecosystem coherence. We believe this may ultimately become one of the most important forms of decentralization: not just decentralized ownership, but decentralized capability creation.

Check out our latest Blockchain Explorer built on AFS (Agentic File System) and AFS-UI (Agentic File System UI). At first glance, it may feel familiar — but the underlying architecture is completely different. The new explorer currently exposes the exact same blockchain data as the previous one, so you can compare and explore it yourself. And no — this is not a simple reskin of the old explorer. This is the first public preview of our AFS-UI and Agentic Blockchain architecture. Right now you only see the same data. Soon, you’ll see a very different future.

ARC will supersede Blocklet Server. As the next step, we’ll open-source a fully documented and cleaned-up version of Blocklet Server — so developers can continue to use it if they choose. Going forward, all new development will move to ARC, while the Blocklet architecture remains. ARC Blocklets → ArcBlock.

Extending the analogy: What is blockchain in this system? Not just money or payments — though that’s part of it. It’s the VIN registry, license plates, ownership records, driver licenses, insurance — the system of identity, trust, and accountability. It’s the infrastructure that makes the whole system verifiable.

While Ethereum gradually evolved its “world computer” vision into a global public ledger, we at ArcBlock are reimagining what a true world computer could be. We call it the Agentic Realm Computer — ARC.

@ArcBlock_io will be at Google Cloud Next. We’ll unveil our next-generation agentic blockchain, along with Blocklet and DID — and most importantly, what we believe is the next big thing.
