Building Infinite AI: H1 2025 0G Ecosystem Update
0G began as a bold vision, and has since become the backbone of a thriving decentralized AI ecosystem. Since our last ecosystem report we’ve seen extraordinary growth, with 350+ integrations across 236 projects that are actively building on or have committed to integrating with 0G. This rapid adoption is a testament to 0G’s role as the go-to infrastructure stack for AI-native applications spanning DeFi, DePIN, and beyond.
Let’s take a closer look at which layers are seeing the most traction and what types of projects are leveraging the world’s largest, fastest growing AI L1.
0G Adoption by Layer: Where Builders are Integrating
All four of 0G’s core layers are seeing impressive adoption rates, with many projects integrating multiple layers to build more powerful, trustless AI-native applications.
- 0G Chain (130+ integrations): Our execution layer is increasingly used by DeFi protocols, gaming platforms, and agent frameworks in need of performant smart contracts tied to AI logic.
- 0G Storage (80+ integrations): AI and DePIN builders need high-throughput, decentralized storage for training data, proofs, and metadata—and 0G Storage delivers.
- 0G Data Availability (80+ integrations): Projects rely on 0G DA for scalable, verifiable, and cost-effective access to critical data to power everything from gaming state to dataset streaming.
- 0G Compute (60+ integrations): As one of our newest layers, 0G Compute has quickly attracted projects requiring GPU resources for inference, fine-tuning, and verifiable ML workloads.
This composability is exactly what 0G was designed for, and why the total number of integrations exceeds the number of individual projects building on 0G.
