Introducing HYPERWORM: The first verifiable digital organism onchain. Our open-source model adapted from Nematoduino runs in Marlin TEE network on Hyperliquid EVM. Visit: 🧵🪱

Compute Offchain, Verify Onchain DeepWorm simulates the worm's neural networks off chain in a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) on the @MarlinProtocol network and verifies attestations provided by the TEE on @HyperliquidX chain. The worm's architecture is permissionless, allowing any untrusted party to host the worm enclave and attest to its enclave key.

What makes the worm move? The worm requires environmental inputs in order for its muscles to react. These inputs trigger certain sensory neurons of the worm which in turn activate its nervous system. The current iteration uses the $WORM token price as the stimulus for triggering the worm's neurons responsible for its movement. The worm simulation directly reads the $WORM token price using @JupiterExchange Price API. Chemotaxis or NoseTouch are repeatedly triggered in a loop with an 8:2 probability, activating the worm's sensory neurons to determine its final movement.

How to interact with the worm? The worm posts transactions signed within the TEE to a state contract on Hyperliquid EVM testnet. It posts its state data, including the worm's relative position, its muscles' latest values, and the price input that made it react. These transactions are signed by the enclave key to prove that the state updates are originating from an authorized enclave. External smart contracts or dApps can read state information from the state contract to build on top of the worm. Furthermore, the enclave ( exposes endpoints for web2 apps to directly query state data.

We encourage developers to build applications using the worm and its onchain state outputs. Worm nematoduino model and smart contracts: Developer guide:

Please read our full documentation at to better understand the architecture and development of the worm. HYPERWORM is in testing stage and experimental. Occasional pauses in state updates may be due to Hyperliquid testnet being down, or a contract error that we will fix.

DeepWorm is pioneering the integration of artificial intelligence and blockchain technology by creating the first on-chain organism—a decentralized, autonomous worm brain. Our mission is to advance the understanding of intelligence by building a robust agent framework that enables the development and deployment of collaborative, evolving AI systems on-chain. By uniting neuroscience, machine learning, and decentralized networks, DeepWorm aims to lay the groundwork for a new era of intelligent organisms on-chain. Together, we are unlocking the future of intelligence—transparent, autonomous, and interconnected.
