MetaLeX is, above all, a team. We are cypherpunk lawyers, engineers, and anons aiming to solve the currently unsolvable problems in crypto, AI, and finance via cyBernetic ORGanizations (BORGs).
We believe autonomous technologies are forcing a complete re-imagining of both the societal and legal fabric of the world and morphing it into a fully cybernetic one. Our singular goal is to fuse on-chain protocols and off-chain legal arrangements to construct this new technologically augmented society, free of the corruption of the previous trust-dependent one.

We envision a world where autonomous technologies and human-level reality can co-exist and benefit each other mutually, rather than compete to exploit and destroy each other, thus we formed MetaLeX to create the tools and entities that will exist and thrive in this new world.
To assemble a team of who we think can bring this world into reality, the principle that MetaLeX used was to find both cypherpunk and multi-disciplinarian members, letting the team build on each other’s strengths and combining them together to make a stronger whole. The team is split into three groups, Legal, Technical, and Social, each interlinking with the other to create a BORG factory where techno-legal entities will emerge, exist and live out their function as they were designed.
We count ourselves among those who will make this new cybernetic world a reality
