Investing in Primus

The blockchain ecosystem is reaching an exciting turning point. AI technology is increasingly woven into every corner of society, and while decentralized infrastructure has seen remarkable innovation, challenges around secure, privacy-preserving data interactions are still holding back wider adoption.  

At Symbolic Capital, we’re driven to back visionary founders and transformative technologies that tackle big problems and reshape industries. When we came across Primus, we saw something special – a team with not just an ambitious vision, but the technical expertise to bring it to life.  

The Vision for AI and Crypto

As the crypto space matures, two hurdles stand out: the scarcity of verifiable, high-quality data and the difficulty of integrating AI systems securely. And with AI agents on the rise, it’s becoming clear they’ll play a pivotal role in the future of crypto as they continue to evolve from isolated tools into a web of interconnected players. But for that to happen, we need to solve some tough issues, especially around securing trustworthy data and enabling privacy in agent-to-agent interactions.  

Primus is stepping up to redefine how AI agents fit into decentralized systems by focusing on reliability, trust, and privacy. Through zkTLS, they’re enabling standalone agents to operate independently and verifiably. Think executing transactions or tapping into external APIs with confidence in their actions. At the same time, their work on FHE technology, including an FHEVM, is laying the foundation for secure agent networks, allowing private data sharing even when sensitive information is involved. Together, these efforts position Primus as a frontrunner in creating the cryptographic backbone for scalable, secure, and collaborative AI-driven ecosystems.  

Why Primus 

What sets Primus apart is their blend of technical precision, forward-thinking strategy, and a talented team. Their chain-agnostic approach and developer-friendly tools mean their solutions can work across different blockchains, opening the door to all kinds of possibilities. They’re pairing cutting-edge cryptographic research with real-world usability, which fits perfectly with our belief that the future of crypto hinges on privacy-first infrastructure.  

Our investment in Primus reflects our trust in their ability to build a stronger, more private, and more connected digital world. We’re excited to be part of their journey and can’t wait to see how they keep pushing the limits of what’s possible in crypto and AI. ✦
