Mira Network has recently been officially selected for the "Global Top 100 Emerging AI Startups (AI 100)" list for 2025 by CB Insights, becoming the only Web3 project focused on AI verification and reducing hallucination problems this year. This honor symbolizes that Mira's concept of "decentralized technology as a key infrastructure for AI reliability" is crossing industry boundaries and gaining widespread attention and recognition from the mainstream Web2 tech circle.
CB Insights is the world's largest startup and technology market research platform, with its reports used as decision-making references by 70% of Fortune 500 companies and top investment institutions. This list was strictly screened from thousands of AI startups, with assessment indicators covering technological innovation, market potential, and commercial impact. Mira's inclusion alongside Web2 leading enterprises like Figure, LangChain, and Crew AI demonstrates its established position in the mainstream tech circle beyond Web3.
Since its founding, Mira has consistently focused on solving hallucination, bias, and credibility issues in generative AI, establishing a verifiable AI trust layer based on blockchain technology. Its core mechanisms include validator nodes, open consensus mechanisms, and a decentralized content review model, emphasizing the consistency and authenticity of AI outputs through cryptoeconomic incentives.
In the official announcement, Mira stated: "Since our inception, Mira has been committed to creating blockchain-based AI reliability solutions. This mainstream recognition from CB Insights is a strong endorsement of our vision: decentralized technology has the potential to solve core challenges in AI applications across Web2 and Web3."
This recognition from a mainstream market intelligence institution symbolizes that "decentralized AI" is moving from concept to application, gradually becoming a viable solution to generative AI's large-scale adoption bottlenecks. As a leader in this field, Mira not only proves the value of Web3 technology but also indicates that AI infrastructure will evolve towards a more open, verifiable, and trustworthy direction.
The Mira team also previewed more significant announcements in the future, thanking the developer, creator, and node operator communities who have supported Mira's vision.

OpenAI is undergoing a major structural adjustment, with this reorganization now receiving clear support from key investor SoftBank. This reform not only concerns the company's governance direction but also the potential $30 billion investment.
Restructuring Moves Towards a "Dual-Track" Approach: Non-Profit Unit Retains Primary Control
OpenAI announced this month that it will no longer pursue complete commercialization, addressing social citizen and former employee concerns about "mission deviation". According to the new structure, OpenAI's non-profit organization still retains ultimate control, while the previously business-focused Limited Liability Company (LLC) will transform into a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC).
This means the business unit can still pursue profits while considering social value and public mission. This is a significant reversal from the original "removing non-profit control" proposal, which was criticized by many in the tech industry, including co-founder Musk.
SoftBank Publicly Supports for the First Time: Investment Promise Back on Track
In the latest financial report press conference, SoftBank CFO Yoshimitsu Goto publicly expressed support for OpenAI's new structural direction. He noted that this change was "within our expectations" and emphasized that "nothing has truly changed".
This statement is particularly crucial as SoftBank promised to invest $30 billion in OpenAI this year, with the condition that the company complete its restructuring by the end of the year. If not completed as scheduled, SoftBank had previously warned it might reduce the investment to $20 billion.
Microsoft's Attitude Becomes a Variable: Rewriting Cooperation Agreement Still Not Reaching Consensus
Although SoftBank has expressed support, Microsoft, another major stakeholder of OpenAI, has not yet agreed to this structural reform. According to Bloomberg and Financial Times reports, OpenAI is negotiating with Microsoft to rewrite their billion-dollar cooperation agreement.
The Financial Times further points out that Microsoft is currently the largest and most critical opponent, and whether it ultimately approves will directly impact the overall restructuring process.
Multiple Shareholders Need Coordination, Reform Path Still Faces Challenges
Goto from SoftBank stated that their position is based on the assumption that restructuring will proceed, "However, OpenAI involves many stakeholders, and some may intervene, which could make the process less smooth than expected." Nevertheless, he candidly admitted that this part is "beyond our control, we can only wait and see."
Non-Profit Still Leads, Investment Door Open, But Internal Differences Need to be Resolved
OpenAI's latest transformation plan attempts to balance "pursuing public welfare" and "attracting funds", with SoftBank's support providing a strong boost. However, unless Microsoft ultimately agrees, this restructuring drama of the AI giant may still have many chapters to be written.
