[PRESS RELEASE – Melbourne, Victoria, October 30th, 2024]
Nozomi, led by founder Louis Dharma and CEO Jinelle D’Lima, has unveiled the aATose Paper (accelerating Aligned Technology by Open Sourcing Entrepreneurship), presenting a new framework that builds upon Vitalik Buterin’s Defensive Accelerationism (de/acc). While de/acc sought to decentralize technology and guard against centralized control, aATose aims to go further, establishing a future where individuals are empowered as sovereign creators. It shifts the focus from merely defending technological progress to actively decentralizing power to everyone, shaping the digital economy on individual terms rather than in the hands of a few elite developers.
“Defensive Accelerationism laid a crucial foundation,” said Louis Dharma, founder of Nozomi. “But decentralization falls short if only top developers can use the technology—it merely shifts centralization to a new group. Web3 was meant to rebuild society from the ground up, allowing everyone to participate. With the aATose ethos, it’s about empowering every individual to become a sovereign creator and then open-sourcing entrepreneurship so they know how to harness that power. Nozomi’s approach is proactive—reducing barriers for non-technical creators to build with decentralized technologies and radically democratizing entrepreneurship, pushing beyond where de/acc left off.”
Nozomi’s message is clear: It’s time to dismantle technological gatekeeping. aATose emphasizes that decentralization must be practical and accessible, empowering everyday creators rather than remaining exclusive to experts or monopolies.
“This is not about incremental change,” said Dharma. “It’s about ensuring that innovation spread to the fair edges and empowers creators rather than reinforcing gatekeepers.”
Nozomi’s aATose introduces the Tetrahedron Model, which adds usability alongside decentralization, security, and scalability as a key focus. It encourages users—regardless of technical background—to shape their systems through modular decentralized options and AI tools, ensuring that creators, not corporations, determine the direction of innovation.
The mental model includes focusing on decentralized AI with blockchain-backed transparency, natural language tools that allow non-technical creators to build applications and businesses, and a commitment to Open-Sourcing Web3 Entrepreneurship (OSE) to simplify the path from idea to decentralized venture.
CEO Jinelle D’Lima added, “aATose isn’t just a framework; it’s a philosophy of how technology should be built with the individual at the forefront. At its heart, it is a declaration of independence from the status quo of centralization masquerading as progress. We aren’t just decentralizing—we’re giving individuals the power to create and govern on their terms.”
Where Vitalik Buterin’s de/acc focused on decentralization as a safeguard, aATose takes the offensive. It aims to make technology accessible to all, not just the elite, emphasizing that the true potential of a decentralized future lies in the democratization of creation.
“If only the elite can participate, we haven’t truly decentralized,” said Dharma. “aATose is about accelerating tools that make creation accessible to everyone.”
