Ritual Launches AI-Native Layer 1 for Autonomous Agents

[PRESS RELEASE – New York, United States, October 26th, 2026] Ritual Chain turns AI agents into persistent economic actors that control their own wallets, onchain identity, and private state. Ritual , a lab for autonomous intelligence founded by former Polychain Capital partners Niraj Pant and Akilesh Potti, has launched Ritual Chain, an EVM-compatible Layer 1. Unlike conventional blockchains built primarily to execute financial transactions, Ritual Chain is designed to support software that can independently use intelligence, control capital, interact with external services, and continue operating without constant human intervention.
