ProofPost is an AI x Web3 SocialFi protocol built in the 0G APAC Hackathon where users stake tokens on content and use AI agents on 0G Compute to detect synthetic media and enforce accountability.
ProofPost is an AI x Web3 SocialFi protocol built during the 0G APAC Hackathon, designed to solve the growing problem of synthetic and misleading content in the AI era.
Instead of relying on unreliable AI detection alone, ProofPost introduces an accountability-based model where users stake tokens behind every post.
Users connect a wallet and create posts (text, image, or video)
Each post is signed and backed by a token stake
AI agents running on 0G Compute (GPU layer) analyze uploaded media and provide a confidence score for AI-generated or manipulated content
If content is flagged as high-risk:
The stake is moved into a vault (escrow)
The post enters a dispute state
The system allows challenges and simulated resolution
If content is confirmed misleading:
Stake is slashed and redistributed
Users build long-term on-chain reputation
Combines AI analysis + economic incentives
Moves from “detecting truth” → to enforcing accountability
Creates a system where:
Posting false content has a real economic cost
ProofPost leverages the 0G stack:
0G Compute → AI agents analyze images/videos using GPU inference
0G Storage → store media, metadata, and provenance
0G Chain → handle staking, slashing, and reputation logic
This enables a scalable and verifiable infrastructure for AI-native social applications.
Wallet-based identity (mocked for demo)
Post creation with staking
AI content analysis (simulated)
Feed with trust signals
Challenge / slash / trust interactions
Vault mechanism for flagged content
ProofPost aims to become the trust layer for content in the AI era, where credibility is not assumed — it is economically enforced and transparently verifiable.
Progress as of 13/04/2026:
- Defined core concept and pivoted from AI detection to an accountability-based model using staking and reputation
- Designed system architecture leveraging 0G Compute (AI inference), 0G Storage (media/provenance), and 0G Chain (staking logic)
- Built frontend MVP with social feed, post creation, and staking interaction
- Implemented simulated AI analysis for uploaded media (image/video) to demonstrate detection flow
- Designed vault/escrow mechanism for flagged content and dispute flow
- Integrated wallet-based identity (mocked for MVP)
- Implemented basic user actions: post, stake, challenge, slash, and trust (simulated states)
- Currently preparing integration with 0G Compute for AI agents and 0G Storage for media persistence
📌 Next milestone: connect real 0G modules (Compute + Storage) and replace simulated AI pipeline with on-chain verifiable flow
Pre-seed / Idea stage
Currently focused on product development and validation during the 0G APAC Hackathon. Open to future funding and ecosystem support.
