Chasm
Chasm — a reference card for a crypto project: what the product does and how verifiable the project’s key claims are; also — alignment with the Decentralized AI thesis (DecAI Fit).
Chasm — an AI/Agents | Infra project on the Ethereum network, token (symbol: CAI).
Disclaimer
Important: this page is a reference overview of the project. Within DecAIHub, we separately record a verification based on open sources within the AI thesis (what is real AI/onchain/why a token, and which sources this is based on).
This is not financial advice and not a recommendation to buy/sell/hold any asset. We do not assess price, returns, or entry/exit timing.
Conclusions are based on publicly available materials found as of the verification date. The absence of confirmation does not imply the absence of the technology.
TL;DR (for readers who are not into AI)
- What it is: an ecosystem/platform for creating and launching AI agents that work on tasks around onchain data and Web3 actions (per the project’s claims).
- Who it’s for: users who want to run “agents” for their own tasks, and developers/creators of agents.
- Why onchain/token: the CAI token is claimed as the utility token of the ecosystem (access/payments/rewards/registration), while the onchain part is confirmed by the presence of an ERC‑20 contract and claims about the network/protocol.
- What you can actually touch (Tier‑1): the public Scout interface:
https://scout.chasm.net.
How it works (very briefly)
- The user does: uses the ecosystem’s interface/services (for example, Scout) or creates an agent for a task.
- The system does: runs/coordinates the work of the “agents” and their interaction with data/resources (per the project documentation).
- The user gets: a result in the form of actions/analytics/agent scenarios (the format depends on the specific agent/module).
- Where the blockchain is: the onchain artifact in the current set of sources is the ERC‑20 contract of the CAI token on Ethereum; verifiable addresses/contracts of the protocol’s onchain logic (other than the token) are not identified.
- Token role: the documentation claims the roles of CAI: access/payments/rewards/registration/governance (see Evidence).

General project overview
In Tier‑1 sources, Chasm describes an ecosystem for creating, deploying and “monetizing” AI agents, as well as a set of related modules (for example, Scout and the IDE/builder Weave). The main value claimed in the documentation is to give the user/creator of “agents” an interface and infrastructure where agents can interact with resources and with each other.
At the same time, per Tier‑1 no separate set of onchain contracts/addresses of the “protocol” (other than the ERC‑20 CAI token) is identified, so the onchain part of the assessment remains conservative: the token on Ethereum is confirmed, while the rest requires additional verifiable artifacts.
Features/modules
- Scout: the public interface/surface of the product (see links_*).
- Ecosystem documentation: description of participant roles and the claimed functions of the CAI token.
- Weave (claimed): a builder/IDE for AI agents and for working with resources.
Typical scenarios
- Scenario 1: a user launches a Scout session → receives results/answers from an agent for the task.
- Scenario 2: a creator/developer studies the docs and builds their own agent/integration → publishes/uses it in the ecosystem (per the project’s claims).
- Scenario 3: a network participant performs the “scout/worker” role → receives rewards in the CAI token (per the documentation).
Getting started (wallet/network)
- What you need: access to the Scout interface and (if interaction with the token is required) an EVM wallet.
- Network/chain: Ethereum (for the CAI token as ERC‑20).
- Fees: Ethereum network fees for ERC‑20 operations (if the user performs them).
Architecture/tech (non‑AI)
- Components: the Scout web interface; ecosystem documentation; the CAI ERC‑20 contract on Ethereum.
- Participant roles (per the docs): users, “builders”, “scouts”, “orchestrators” (terms from the documentation).
- Where logic runs: the operation of the AI agents/service is not confirmed as onchain; the onchain artifact in the verified sources is the CAI token.
- Dependencies: — (not singled out as verifiable “protocol dependencies”, other than Ethereum for the token).
Token/economics (expanded, no forecasts)
- Token utility (per the docs): access to resources/services, payments within the ecosystem, registration fees, rewards to participants, participation in governance.
- Incentive mechanisms (per the docs): a “scout reward system” and the issuance/distribution of rewards are described (the parameters are claimed as changeable).
- Issuance/distribution: the documentation gives the shares (investors/team/treasury/scouts) and vesting caveats, but with a note about possible changes.
Governance
- Who makes decisions: the Tier‑1 documentation claims participation of CAI holders in governance; a separate governance process/page and verifiable onchain governance mechanics are not singled out as confirmed artifacts.
Security and incidents

Project status and timeline
- Current status: an active product/ecosystem (based on the presence of a public interface and documentation).
- Roadmap: —.
Ecosystem/integrations
- Integrations/partners: — (we do not record them without verifiable Tier‑1 confirmations).
AI component of the project
- What is real AI here? the project describes an ecosystem of AI agents and tools for creating/using them (Scout/Weave) per the Tier‑1 documentation.
- What is truly onchain? the ERC‑20 contract of the CAI token on Ethereum is confirmed; separate onchain contracts of the “protocol” (other than the token) are not established per Tier‑1.
- Why is a token needed? in the Tier‑1 documentation, CAI is claimed as a token for access/payments/rewards/registration and participation in governance.
- Red flags (based on the information found): mixing “descriptions of future capabilities” with “already working mechanisms”; absence in this card of a set of verifiable onchain addresses/contracts of the protocol (other than the ERC‑20); absence of AI/agent quality metrics (AI_3=0).

Details
AI reality
AI_0 — AI intent (Tier‑1 roadmap) (1/0)
- AI_0 (decision): 0

- “Replace the blockchain” test: it is not established that the product “breaks down” without the blockchain (only the token is confirmed in the verified sources).
- Evidence: Tier‑1 — https://network-docs.chasm.net/
- Why sufficient / why not (one line): OC_3=1 requires a Tier‑1 justification “why a key property breaks down without onchain” + verifiable artifacts.

- TK_3 (decision): 1
- Claim (one line): The documentation claims participation of CAI holders in governance.
- Evidence: Tier‑1 — https://network-docs.chasm.net/entering-chasm/cai-token
- Why sufficient / why not (one line): The Tier‑1 source directly describes the governance utility of the token.
- Conflict note (if any): —
TK_4 — token is replaceable (1/0)
- TK_4 (decision): 0
- Claim (one line): The replaceability of the token is not established (the docs list functions, but “replacement without loss of meaning” is not separately justified).
- Evidence: Tier‑1 — https://network-docs.chasm.net/entering-chasm/cai-token
- Why sufficient / why not (one line): TK_4=1 requires a direct justification/comparison with an alternative (for example, “the same can be done with USDC/a subscription without loss of meaning”).
