Zentry is a crypto and AI infrastructure project described as a Human-Agentic Operating System designed to facilitate co-evolution between humans and artificial intelligence. The project, which rebranded from GuildFi in 2024, aims to create a user-owned data economy by transforming human activities into structured data to train and enhance AI agents. [1] [2]
Zentry's core mission is to build the foundational infrastructure for what it terms a "new human-AI civilization." The project's central thesis is that current AI models are limited by their reliance on static, outdated datasets. To address this, Zentry proposes a system that utilizes "living data", fresh, contextual signals generated from real-time human actions and interactions, to power a perpetual engine of intelligence. This system is designed as a self-reinforcing cycle: human participation in Zentry's applications generates high-quality data; this data is used to train and improve AI agents; and these enhanced AI agents, in turn, amplify human capabilities and create new value within the ecosystem. [3] [4]
The project contrasts its model with traditional platforms that monetize user data for their own benefit. Instead, Zentry aims to establish a user-owned economy where participants are rewarded for their data contributions and benefit from the collective intelligence they help create. The entire ecosystem is built upon a vertically integrated, three-layer architecture known as the Zentry Stack. [5]
The project was formerly known as GuildFi, a Web3 gaming platform. In April 2024, it underwent a comprehensive rebranding to Zentry to reflect a broader focus on the convergence of gaming, social platforms, and AI. This transition included a token migration from the GF token to the new ZENT token. [6]
The project originally launched as GuildFi, a platform focused on building a Web3 gaming ecosystem. On April 23, 2024, the project announced its official rebranding to Zentry, marking a strategic pivot to a broader vision encompassing AI and data infrastructure. The rebrand included a token migration, where holders could convert the original GF token to the new ZENT token at a ratio of 1 GF to 10 ZENT. [6]
Following the rebrand, the original GuildFi platform was officially closed on August 31, 2024, to finalize the transition to the new Zentry ecosystem. On August 29, 2025, the project formally announced the "Zentry Era," publicly detailing its mission to build a Human-Agentic Operating System and revealing its core technology stack and flagship application, zTerminal. [3] [7]
The beta testing program for Zentry's new platform concluded on September 20, 2024. An upgraded version of zTerminal was subsequently launched on October 17, 2025, featuring enhanced user interface and AI response capabilities. According to the project's roadmap, the launch of Radiant, a gaming metagame, was scheduled for Q3 2024, followed by Zigma, an NFT collective, in Q4 2024, and Azul, an AI gaming agent, in Q1 2025.

Zentry's infrastructure is built on a vertically integrated system called the Zentry Stack, which consists of three interdependent layers designed to create a continuous feedback loop for data generation and intelligence compounding. [4]
The architecture is designed to capture real-time data from human activity, use it to empower AI agents, and integrate gamification as a core mechanic to drive participation. [3]
The zApp layer is the user-facing component of the ecosystem, consisting of AI-native applications that serve as the primary interface for human interaction. These applications are designed with gamification, programmable distribution, and incentivization to encourage user participation. The attention, engagement, and capital generated within these apps produce the "living data" that fuels the lower layers of the stack. Users are positioned as both the source of this data and the primary beneficiaries of the value it creates. [4]
The zAI layer is described as a "playable agent society" that functions as an AI studio, protocol, and social network for AI agents. It provides a synthetic environment where agents can evolve both autonomously and through interaction with humans via collaboration and competition. This layer facilitates the creation, tokenization, and coordination of AI agents, which can act as personalized extensions of users, possess modular skills, and operate with embedded incentives. The goal is to amplify human potential through hyper-personalized intelligence. As of August 2025, the zAI layer was live but in a private testing phase with over 30 self-organizing agents trained on 24 billion parameters. [3]
zData is the foundational data backbone of the Zentry operating system. Its purpose is to overcome the limitations of static AI training datasets by providing a continuous stream of real-time, contextual data. The layer aggregates raw data from over 100 sources, including Zentry's native apps, on-chain activity, gaming interactions, and social media. This data is then processed through a three-stage pipeline:
As of September 2025, the zData layer managed over 296 TB of data, streamed 970 GB daily for AI consumption, and had collected over 100 billion signals from more than 150,000 users. [5]
Zentry's ecosystem includes a suite of native applications and a game publishing arm.
The native token of the Zentry ecosystem is ZENT, an ERC-20 token that also exists on other blockchains.
The ZENT token replaced the former GF token at a 10:1 ratio during the project's rebranding in April 2024. [6]
Zentry was co-founded by Jarindr Thitadilaka and Gazinpoj Techahuasingh. Thitadilaka is credited with expertise in blockchain technology and gaming ecosystems, while Techahuasingh has a background in software development and project management. [6]
Zentry is backed by numerous venture capital firms and companies in the Web3, gaming, and AI sectors. Its investors include Coinbase Ventures, YZi Labs (formerly Binance Labs), Pantera Capital, DeFiance Capital, Animoca Brands, The Spartan Group, LongHash Ventures, SkyVision Capital, Play Ventures, Vessel Capital, Arche Fund, and Synergis.
