Guild on 0G: Space ID, Beacon Protocol, Flashback Labs
Welcome to the seventh chapter of Guild on 0G, our ongoing series that spotlights the builders transforming decentralized AI into tangible products.
With every edition, we see new dimensions of what’s possible when intelligence runs onchain. And this time around, the focus is on the foundations: identity, data, and ownership. Whether it’s assigning names to agents, unlocking proprietary information streams, or creating lifelike personal avatars, these projects are laying the groundwork for how decentralized AI will be experienced day to day.
In this installment, we have Space ID, Beacon Protocol, and Flashback Labs: three teams building the essential infrastructure for the next wave of AI.
Space ID: Universal Decentralized Identity
Space ID is a universal domain name platform and aggregator spearheading decentralized identity across web3. From registering and managing domains to integrating across platforms, Space ID provides a single hub where users, developers, and even AI agents can secure and utilize onchain identities. With its Web3 Name SDK & API, Space ID makes it seamless to deploy and integrate decentralized identities across blockchains.
Core Features
- End-to-End Decentralized Identity Management: Covers registration, deployment, secondary trading, and platform integration.
- Aggregated Identity Support: Brings together ENS, Solana Name Service, Unstoppable Domains, and more alongside native .0G domains.
- Identity Scope: Expands beyond wallets to include AI agents and onchain contracts.
Why 0G?
- Decentralized Identity: Enhances the interaction and tracking of onchain transactions between wallets and AI agents.
- Onchain Identity Ownership: Enables AI agents not just to have domain names, but to truly own their digital identities.
- Expanded Definition of Identity: Supports agent-to-agent commerce and new forms of interaction across the 0G ecosystem.
By anchoring identities in 0G, Space ID envisions a future where users and AI agents operate seamlessly with .0G domains, making decentralized identity a cornerstone of the ecosystem.
Beacon Protocol: Unlocking Proprietary Data for AI
Beacon Protocol is building the infrastructure to make proprietary and private data usable for AI models and agents: securely, in real-time, and without human intermediaries. Proprietary data is one of the most valuable but underutilized resources in AI, and Beacon makes it possible to unlock that value while preserving sovereignty and privacy.
Core Features
- Secure Private Data Handling: Enables agents to access and use sensitive datasets in real-time without exposing raw information.
- Storage and Compute Agnostic: Ensures encrypted data can move across infrastructures while maintaining full onchain traceability.
- Agentic AI Data Collaboration: Enables multiple AI agents to collaborate on complex tasks through controlled, privacy-preserving data pipelines.
Why 0G?
- Immutable Data Provenance: Every data transaction receives its own onchain record, which requires the massive throughput that 0G provides.
- High-Speed Infrastructure: 0G’s 50 GB/second throughput and TEE-enabled privacy features support Beacon’s performance requirements.
- AI-Native Ecosystem: 0G’s focus on AI-first projects creates unique opportunities for collaboration and expansion.
Beacon’s goal is to become essential data infrastructure for decentralized AI, powering billions of real-time data transactions and enabling smaller teams and AI-native builders to unlock proprietary datasets that were previously inaccessible.
Flashback Labs: User-Owned AI Avatars
Flashback Labs empowers individuals to transform their personal data (photos, videos, voices) into private AI that works for them. Through the Flashback mobile app, users can securely train AI, generate photos and videos, interact with lifelike avatars of loved ones, and more. By tying data to wallets and logging consent onchain, Flashback ensures that people retain both control and rewards from their data.
Core Features
- Personal Data Ownership: Keeps raw photos, videos, and voices encrypted in decentralized storage, fully under user control.
- Private AI Training: Runs model training and inference in TEEs, guaranteeing avatars are built without exposing raw data.
- Data Monetization: Allows users to grant controlled access to their data or trained models, earning rewards in return.
Why 0G?
- Decentralized Storage and Compute: 0G powers encrypted storage and off-device AI training inside TEEs.
- Full-Stack Private AI: Combines storage, compute, TEEs, and rewards into a verifiable workflow with 0G’s Decentralized AI Operating System (DeAIOS).
- Community Scaling via ITOs: Lets contributors supply training resources to expand avatar creation while earning tokens.
Flashback envisions a world where millions can deploy personal AI avatars and connect safely with lifelike representations while always retaining ownership, privacy, and transparency over their most intimate data.
Guild on 0G
What unites Space ID, Beacon Protocol, and Flashback Labs isn’t that they solve similar problems, but that they each tackle a cornerstone of decentralized AI. One is making identity universal, another is making private data usable, and the third is giving people ownership over their digital selves.
Together, they demonstrate how 0G’s Artificial Intelligence Layer (AIL) isn’t just supporting applications at the edge, but is becoming the backbone for how intelligence will live, transact, and interact onchain.
If you’re working on the next wave of decentralized AI, we invite you to apply to Guild on 0G and help define what this future looks like.
