Odaily Odaily reports that Metis' decentralized coordinator, Natalia Ameline, released a community letter today outlining the project's core strategic direction for 2026. The letter emphasizes that as the market shifts from speculative to real-world applications, Metis will focus on promoting the deep integration of AI and high-performance blockchain.
It is reported that Metis has built a unified stack including the settlement layer Andromeda, the high-performance layer Hyperion, and the application data layer LazAI. Andromeda offers transaction fees of approximately $0.01 and confirmation times of less than two seconds, while Hyperion improves transaction processing capacity by more than 50% through parallel execution. The METIS token has now become the native gas token of LazAI, realizing a single token economy for the entire ecosystem.
At the application level, CreateAI created 20,000 works within three hours, and the AI-assisted DAT Lazbubu whitelist event attracted over 90,000 participants. The payment product GMPayer has achieved AI-assisted autonomous transactions.
