Humans.ai

Humans.ai — 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).

Humans.ai — an AI/Agents | Infra “AI & Blockchain” ecosystem that includes its own L1 blockchain (Humans Blockchain) and an AI direction (EVA / AI agents). The ecosystem’s native token: HEART (also represented by an ERC‑20 contract on Ethereum).

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: its own blockchain + a product layer positioned as a platform for creating/using AI agents (EVA) and “AI on blockchain”.
  • Who it’s for: developers and teams who want to build dApps/agents on the Humans.ai network (Cosmos + EVM compatibility) and ecosystem users.
  • Why onchain/token: the blockchain is a PoS network with validators and EVM contracts; the HEART token is the native asset for fees, staking/rewards and governance (per Tier‑1 sources).
  • What you can actually touch (Tier‑1): Humans.ai Docs (EVM contracts, validators, explorers) — https://docs.humans.ai/; public explorers — https://docs.humans.ai/developer/block-explorers

How it works (very briefly)

  1. The user does: deploys a node/validator or uses the network via a wallet (MetaMask/Keplr) and dApps; a developer deploys EVM contracts.
  2. The system does: validators (CometBFT) produce blocks; the network provides an EVM environment and (per the docs) extensions/precompiles for operations such as staking/governance.
  3. The user gets: onchain transactions/contracts and the ability to participate in staking/governance; the product layer is positioned as “AI agents / EVA”.
  4. Where the blockchain is: Humans.ai is a sovereign PoS L1; data is available via Cosmos/EVM explorers (Mintscan and others).
  5. Token role (if any): HEART is used for fees, staking (validators/delegators), rewards and governance; fees are paid in HEART even if the payment is initiated in fiat/another crypto (per the Tier‑1 $Heart page).

General project overview

Humans.ai describes itself as an “AI & Blockchain ecosystem”: its own blockchain (Humans Blockchain) and a product layer around AI agents/tools, where the blockchain is used for governance/verification and the economy (fees/staking/governance). The Tier‑1 Humans.ai documentation emphasizes that the network simultaneously supports the Cosmos stack and EVM compatibility (JSON‑RPC and smart contracts), and that validators are selected based on their stake of the HEART token and receive rewards/fees.

Per the Tier‑1 pages of the website, the project also claims an AI component (EVA: “AI that creates AIs”, a conversational tool) and a set of applied scenarios, “AI agents for community/company/government”. At the same time, no detailed technical description of models/metrics was found at Tier‑1 levels within this card.

Features/modules

  • Humans Blockchain (L1): a sovereign PoS network, the “blockchain of AIs”, mainnet since 2023‑05‑29 (per the website).
  • EVM compatibility: deployment of Solidity contracts, Ethereum JSON‑RPC, EVM tooling.
  • Validators/staking: validators and delegation of HEART, rewards and slashing (per the docs).
  • AI layer (positioning): EVA / AI agents (per the website), AIverse materials (partially available).

Typical scenarios

  • Scenario 1 (user): connects a wallet (MetaMask/Keplr) → makes transactions/interacts with dApps → pays fees in HEART.
  • Scenario 2 (validator/delegator): a validator runs a node → receives rewards/fees; a delegator stakes HEART → shares in the validator’s income; slashing is possible for violations.
  • Scenario 3 (developer): deploys an EVM contract on Humans.ai → uses Cosmos interoperability and EVM tooling.

Getting started (wallet/network)

  • What you need: a wallet (MetaMask for EVM, Keplr for the Cosmos part) and HEART tokens for fees/staking.
  • Network/chain: Humans.ai mainnet; the available explorers are listed in the documentation.
  • Fees: network fees and part of the validator rewards are paid in HEART (per the validator docs and the $Heart page).

Architecture/tech (non‑AI)

  • Components: a PoS L1 network (CometBFT), an EVM environment, a set of explorers/indexers, SDK/CLI, validator infrastructure.
  • Participant roles: validators, delegators, EVM contract developers, dApp users.
  • Where logic runs: onchain — consensus, staking, governance and smart contracts; offchain — frontends/wallets and possible AI services (the details of AI computation are not disclosed in Tier‑1 sources).
  • Dependencies: JSON‑RPC, wallets (MetaMask/Keplr), explorers/indexers.

Token/economics (expanded, no forecasts)

  • Token utility: network and platform fees are paid in HEART; the token is used for governance; validators/delegators receive rewards and fees in HEART.
  • Protocol necessity drivers: HEART is described as the “native token” and “fuel” of the ecosystem, and validators are selected by stake; without the token, PoS security and the fee mechanics are impossible.
  • Who pays fees: users who make transactions/interact with contracts.
  • Where fees/rewards go: to validators and their delegators (taking the validator commission into account).
  • Security/incentive mechanisms: staking and slashing (double sign/offline/non‑participation in governance).
  • Issuance/burn/distribution: detailed tokenomics/vesting are not established from the Tier‑1 pages available for this card → —.

Governance

  • Who makes decisions: governance via stake/votes (mentioned in the docs and on the $Heart page).
  • How protocol parameters change: via onchain governance (details are not disclosed within this card).
  • Where decisions are discussed/made: GitHub/social media + onchain governance (link not established).
  • Keys/multisig: —.

Security and incidents

  • Audits: the Etherscan token page lists a security audit (Hacken, Dec 6th, 2021) for the ERC‑20 contract; there is also an audit-reports repository.
  • Bug bounty: no Tier‑1 found → —.
  • Incidents: not established per Tier‑1 → —.
  • Threat model: validator risks (slashing/downtime), risks of EVM contracts and bridges, risks of the “AI layer” (promises without technical details/metrics).

Project status and timeline

  • Current status: mainnet (the Humans Blockchain page says “fully operational”; a “mainnet-alpha stage” is also mentioned).
  • Key releases/milestones: mainnet launch 2023‑05‑29 (per the website); public releases of humansdotai/humans (GitHub Releases).
  • Roadmap: the roadmap page requires membership/login; public Tier‑1 content is unavailable.

Ecosystem/integrations

  • Integrations: wallets (MetaMask/Keplr/WalletConnect), public explorers (Mintscan/BigDipper and others), EVM tooling (Solidity/Remix/JSON‑RPC).
  • Partners: — (in this card we do not record them without separate Tier‑1 confirmation of specific integrations).
  • Where it’s actually used: public explorers and the documentation on deploying EVM contracts and validation.

AI component of the project

  • What is real AI here? Per the Tier‑1 website, AI agents/EVA are claimed (“AI that creates AIs”, a conversational tool). However, the Tier‑1 sources available for this card contain no detailed technical description of models/versions/metrics.
  • What is truly onchain? Humans.ai is a PoS L1 network (CometBFT) with validators, EVM contracts and public explorers.
  • Why is a token needed? HEART is the native token for fees, staking/rewards and governance; the docs describe staking/slashing mechanics.
  • Red flags (based on the information found): a lot of marketing about “AI” without technical artifacts; conflicting supply data between the website and the Ethereum explorer; the security page in the docs is still “Coming soon”.
