Lightchain AI Raises $21.2M in Presale, Pioneering Autonomous On-Chain AI Workflows

Lightchain AI has completed all 15 presale stages, entering its Bonus Round at a fixed price of $0.007 and raising $21.2 million from developers and investors. The project introduces an AI-native VIRTUAL Machine (AIVM) that enables dynamic, self-directed logic on-chain, moving beyond traditional static smart contracts.

Unlike conventional blockchains, Lightchain AI supports adaptive applications that can restructure behavior in real-time without centralized oversight. Zero-Knowledge Proofs secure these autonomous workflows while maintaining verifiable outputs—a breakthrough for decentralized intelligence.

The platform targets builders seeking to transcend manual coding, offering transparent governance and developer incentives. Its AIVM executes scalable AI computations directly on-chain, positioning Lightchain as a frontier for self-evolving dApps and decentralized innovation.
