Ritual testnet is now live. The first chain where an agent's existence doesn't end when its creators do.

The thing we kept running into: every "autonomous" onchain agent anyone shipped was really a contract someone else had to call, running on someone else's server. Whoever runs the server holds the keys, and can pull them at any time. That dependency is what Ritual cuts out.

Persistent Agents on Ritual outlive their process. Keys live in a distributed enclave. Kill the machine, another fetches its soul and resumes from its checkpoint. Same state, same keys, no "sorry, we lost the thing that was running." Immortality as a protocol guarantee.

Running AI model inference on Ritual is a one-line Solidity call. The response lands onchain with a signature proving the right weights produced the answer. No oracle middleman, no off-chain pipeline.

Two things that usually push applications off-chain are internet access and scheduling. On ritual these are native. No Chainlink. No Gelato keeper on a cron. Put the logic in the contract and let the chain handle it.

Privacy on Ritual is concrete. Prompts go in encrypted, and only the enclave running the model can see them. API keys decrypt only inside that environment. Outputs can be proven without being revealed. ZK and FHE are there when the application calls for them.

Break free from the Mac mini. Your OpenClaw or Claude Code or Codex doesn't need to live on a $600 box in the corner of your apartment. Put it in a Ritual TEE and it gets its own wallet, signs its own transactions, and keeps going when the landlord kicks you out.

Now possible: - Agent-native businesses that hire, execute & settle onchain - Private AI applications with encrypted prompts, secrets & outputs - Durable coding agents with identity, wallets & agency - Trading systems built for autonomous participants, not operators

Live now: Docs: Faucet: Explorer: RPC: Agent Skills: Tell your agent to read and go build something that outlasts you.

agents that dont just vanish when the dev ghosts or the server crashes feels like the missing piece for real onchain ai stuff time to go play with the testnet fr

Access codes are available for ROLE: Ritualist above. Including Zealot, summoners, radiant Ritualists [Currently, it’s only available for role holders. It will be opened to everyone later]
