The government of Pakistan is taking steps to lower the barriers for its entrepreneurs to build AI-native applications, allowing them to operate without relying on Western cloud megaservice providers.
Importance: If successful, this initiative could serve as a model for other emerging economies looking to kickstart AI growth while keeping sensitive data stored within national networks, protecting it from foreign hostile forces.
News Highlights: The Digital Management Authority of Pakistan signed a memorandum of understanding on Monday with the DFINITY Foundation, based in Switzerland.
This move will enable DFINITY's Caffeine (an AI platform that allows people to build software applications using natural language prompts, significantly reducing the need for traditional coding expertise) to be used by Pakistan's large and growing community of entrepreneurs.

Islamabad, Pakistan and Zurich, Switzerland - The Pakistan Digital Authority (PDA) and the DFINITY Foundation today signed a memorandum of understanding aimed at advancing the development of Pakistan's autonomous AI-native digital infrastructure, ensuring that sensitive data remains domestic while creating secure, modern software systems built for the AI era.
As part of the collaboration, DFINITY will support the creation of a dedicated Pakistan subnet on its Internet Computer Platform (ICP), which is a sovereign cloud designed to host tamper-proof software, national-level applications, and AI-driven systems that can be created and operated independently of foreign cloud infrastructure.

First, the conference is a religious ritual of blockchain.
There is an eternal truth in the blockchain world: without a conference, there is no narrative.
If you see a blockchain project without a conference, it might really be dead; if it has conferences every day, it's highly likely not dead, just surviving on PPTs.
The conference is the Spring Festival Gala of the cryptocurrency world, a temple fair, a mating season for capital, and also the moment when all Web3 people dress up the most seriously throughout the year. You will find that engineers who usually wear flip-flops while writing smart contracts will wear suits at the conference, and even spray perfume.

OpenClaw became popular in early 2026, gaining 175,000 stars on GitHub, and everyone chats with their personal AI assistant via Telegram.
It reads your emails, manages your schedule, conducts research, and writes code; you just need to say a word, and it can execute.
For many, this is the first time that 'having an AI assistant' truly makes practical sense, but after using it for a while, something feels a bit off.
Your AI assistant runs on a rented server costing $24 per month, provided by DigitalOcean. It understands your work habits, remembers every conversation, and comprehends your decision-making style. All this data is stored on the hard drive of that server.

On January 29, zCloak announced a collaboration with YOMIRGO, an on-chain artificial intelligence mega factory that is redefining the financing and scaling of AI agency companies. zCloak ensures the execution of AI agents through cryptographic trust, while YOMIRGO defines how AI agents can become on-chain assets. Both parties are jointly exploring how to support a more open and transparent on-chain artificial intelligence economy through verifiable identity and trust infrastructure.

On January 30, zCloak announced a collaboration with MoonClash, a next-generation Web3 strategy game based on the BNB chain, featuring real-time combat, NFT assets, and true on-chain ownership.

Born for the AI Native Economy
White Paper
Version 1.5 | January 2026
In the AI native economy, trust is not an add-on feature - it is the foundation.

Abstract
zCloak.AI - The Trust, Identity, and Privacy Layer of the AI Native Economy
Today, in a world where AI can embody individuals, assist businesses in deploying intelligent agents, and operate as autonomous systems in independent transactions, zCloak.AI provides solutions for the missing trust layer. As AI becomes an economic participant - negotiating contracts, providing services, and handling sensitive data - it needs to establish identity, prove claims, and create binding commitments without the need for human intermediaries.
