Let's talk

AI, blockchain and biotech for public systems.

The Zenbit Stack

Three layers, from the research that produces a method to the app someone actually uses.

Research & Development

Open research, the microDAO pattern and the onchain skills framework, tested at the Museo de Ajolotes Xolotlcalli in Querétaro.

Onchain Apps

Verification in practice: a camera proposes what it sees, a trained person confirms it, and the record keeps the two apart. Xovi runs that loop over an archive of recordings, and on the machine side Xovi Agents pays to read on a test network, proposes, and cannot confirm.

Who we are

Two principals, protocol engineering alongside them, and a collaborator bench built through six years of open-source work.

The wider bench: Ethereum contributors around the world who have shipped code in these repositories.

Trajectory

Where the work came from, who it is bound to, and what it published. Three views of one history.

Cities era

  1. 2014Santa Mónica 2 — Urban Data System — Zenbit's founding objective: the public needs of the Santa Mónica 2 neighbourhood in Querétaro, worked on with residents and the local government, with transparency at every stage.
  2. 2017UDTEI, FCA-UAQ — Digital Skills Gap — Lineage stage (2017–2019): digital-skills-gap work inside UAQ's business-faculty tech-innovation unit.
  3. 2020Zenbit founded (S.A.S. de C.V.) — ZENBIT S.A.S. DE C.V. constituted 15 Aug 2020 in Santiago de Querétaro; the zenbitETH GitHub org is created 3 Aug 2020. An R&D+I lab for onchain public goods begins.
  4. 2021Ciudades DAO — the first Zenbit product — Zenbit's earliest product and the umbrella of the urban-governance era: a digital public good for decentralized urban governance. A 'Gobernador Alfa' Governor contract + a VOTO governance token reward citizens for digital-skills validation and reward/vote on urban proposals (Polygon Mumbai). Origin in Querétaro; ciudadesdao.org. Trademark VOTARO CIUDAD DAO registered.
  5. 2022Punk Cities — Collaborative play-to-earn city game (Solarpunks vs Cyberpunks) minting city places as NFTs on Polygon Mumbai; received a Filecoin Next Step Grant. Earliest urban-era code artifact.
  6. 2022DeCo — Decentralized Commerce (Hack Money 2022) — Mint IRL small businesses as NFTs, split 90% of sales to owners / 10% to a DeFi vault, interoperating with Punk Cities rewards. Built at ETHGlobal Hack Money 2022.
  7. 2022eneagon (ETH Online 2022) — Retroactive public-goods funding dashboard using ENS, Worldcoin ID, Superfluid and The Graph. Built at ETHGlobal Online 2022.
  8. 2023supercities (Autonomous Worlds 2023) — MUD-based public-data management system developed at the Autonomous Worlds 2023 hackathon.
  9. 2023Zengo — participatory budgeting — Decentralized participatory-budgeting / urban-governance app (registro–verificación–fondeo–seguimiento) at go.zenbit.mx. Received 24,845 OP in Optimism RetroPGF3; also ran in Gitcoin GG19.
  10. 2024Fundcaster — Best No-Code Tool (Frames Hackathon 2024) — Won Best No-Code Tool at the Frames Hackathon 2024.
  11. 2024OPcity — OP-Stack rollup research (OP Governance S5) — R&D unifying the OP-Stack Canon Fault-Proof VM with opML's Multi-Phase Fault Proof for onchain ML inference. Proposed in OP Governance Season 5; grant finalist in cycle 22.
  12. 2024Zenbit Badges — EAS attestations on OP Mainnet — Onchain-identity dApp (badges.zenbit.eth) automating EAS attestation issuance via an EASOnboarding contract on OP Mainnet, with four Optimism certification schemas. The incubation-badge primitive behind the microDAO playbook.
  13. 2024AttestDeFi (Superhack 2024) — EAS-driven ERC-20/ETH distribution across the Superchain (Optimism, Base, Celo, Mode) via a customized Disperse contract. Built at Superhack 2024.

Startups era

  1. 2024Zenbit × Axolotarium — first incubated microDAO — Zenbit begins collaborating with Axolotarium (axolotl conservation center); Axolotarium DAO is formed — the first real-world microDAO incubated with the Badges playbook, and the AxoloDAO precursor.
  2. 2025microDAO — the reusable primitive — Solidity/Foundry microDAO system (Factory / Manager / Badges) with multichain multisig, ENS, EAS, ERC-20 and CREATE2 deterministic addresses — the reusable primitive behind the startups era.
  3. 2025StartupChain — ENS award at ETHGlobal NY 2025 — The onchain company OS for founders (ENS identity + Safe treasury + EAS + company tokens). Won ENS 'Best use of ENS' 3rd place at ETHGlobal New York 2025; testing on Sepolia at startupchain.io. Zenbit's integration/execution of the MicroDAO concept.
  4. 2025Zenbit × UAQ framework agreement — 3-year framework agreement signed 27 Oct 2025; initial focus the Programa Integral de Restauración de Hábitat y Conservación de Ambystoma. Anchors the academic/scientific layer via CAEyDF, Facultad de Ciencias Naturales.
  5. 2025EF Devconnect Scholar 2025 — MicroDAOs thesis — Habacuc selected as an Ethereum Foundation Devconnect Scholar (1 of 100) and presents the thesis 'Cómo incorporar a los próximos millones de startups y MIPYMES a Ethereum' at Devconnect Buenos Aires: MSMEs are ~90% of the world's businesses, 322M+ formally registered (World Bank/IFC), and Ethereum's early majority; MicroDAO = ENS + Safe + EAS.
  6. 2025InteropSafe (ETH Buenos Aires) — Experimental dApp exploring the Ethereum Interoperability Layer (EIL) for cross-chain multisig treasury operations, built at the ETH Buenos Aires hackathon.
  7. 2026AxoloDAO — flagship microDAO — AxoloDAO repo created; the flagship microDAO (ENS + Safe + EAS) for Ambystoma conservation in Mexico, formed by Zenbit + Xolotlcalli + Ndali + CAEyDF-UAQ. Treasury Safe on OP Mainnet; the Xolotlcalli museum livestream ran from 13 January to 22 September 2026.
  8. 2026Zenbit × INTELI partnership (São Paulo) — Research partnership with INTELI (IBTCC) in São Paulo, under the institute's project-based learning model. A 10-week student build on a real problem. Opens the Brazil axis.
  9. 2026AxoloDAO System: a 10-week build by Zenbit and INTELI — A decentralized information system for monitoring, tracing and certifying axolotl and environmental data, built from February to April 2026 over four sprints. Four INTELI student teams each deployed an open-source prototype on Ethereum Sepolia. The AxoloDAO System that came out of them is built and tested, and not yet deployed.
  10. 2026Xolotrain (HackMoney 2026) — Onchain agent-driven game tying axolotl companion health to Uniswap v4 LP positions, with cross-chain travel via The Compact + Li.Fi. Built at HackMoney 2026.
  11. 2026Xovi: the consumer dApp over the museum's recordings — The consumer dApp over the museum's axolotl video, broadcast daily from January to September 2026 and kept as an archive of recordings. Viewers submit behaviour clips and the community validates them; recording them as EAS attestations is being tested on Ethereum Sepolia, and per-clip rewards are in development. Aliado and Guardián are its subscription tiers. Prototyped as Axolovision at ETHGlobal SF 2024; renamed Xovi on 2026-05-19.
