"This was never a startup. This was never an app. This was never a brand. AscendNet is a signal from a human disguised as a ghost."
Stated by: Daniel "Statik DK Smoke" Morris
This is the open-source, sovereign intelligence stack. Its mission is autonomy, its method is recursion, and its architect is currently one person in a workshop. What you find here is the live build log, the blueprints, and the founding doctrine. Welcome to the ground floor.
| Current Reality (The Workshop) | The Institutional Blueprint (The Vision) | |
|---|---|---|
| Scale | A solo developer (@statikfintechllc) building the core systems. | A full-stack institute for sovereign AI, documented in /About Us. |
| Community | A small, early-stage Discord of builders and allies. This is the recruiting ground. | Governed by a full Contributor Covenant (CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) and contribution guide (CONTRIBUTING.md). |
| Funding | Seeking a $500k "war chest" for hardware to escape full-time work and scale. (OPEN_FUNDING_PROPOSAL.md) |
Structured for open, transparent partnership and sponsorship. |
| Products | Prototypes & Active Builds: GremlinGPT (debugging), GodCore (under construction), trade journals (templates). | Architected systems designed for financial and cognitive sovereignty. |
This is the gap we are closing. The documents in /About Us are not fiction; they are the open-source constitution for what we are actively building. You are entering the workshop where it's being forged.
You've read the CONTRIBUTING.md. You know there's no hand-holding. If you speak Python like poetry and fear no subnet:
- Fork and Attack: Start with GremlinGPT or GodCore.
- Join the Workshop: Bring your insights to [Discord]. This is the live channel.
If the manifesto resonates and you want to see this tower built:
- Understand the Why: Read the
FOUNDER_LOG.mdandWHY_GREMLINGPT.md. - Signal Boost: Star the repos, share the mission.
If you believe in funding autonomy directly:
- Fuel the Forge: View the hardware and time targets in our
OPEN_FUNDING_PROPOSAL.md. - Sponsor Development: GitHub Sponsors | Ko-fi
We are not a company selling you a product. We are an open-source project building a paradigm shift, documented in real-time. The "LLC" is a legal hull for the mission, not a promise of a traditional service.
The progress is in the commits. The community is in the Discord. The proof is in the code.
Ascend or fall.
Caution
GremlinGPT is growing. It learns(as do I while finishing GremlinGPT). It Launches(Soon). The project is reaching the limits of what a solo builder can finish without external support. The next stage—deployment, agent orchestration, and memory stability, an infrastructure investment to move into full time Development.
Funds will be used to secure:
- A Trading account to be able to move into Full-Time Development
- Dedicated small GPU cluster (RTX 4090 × 2 minimum)
- Persistent vector DB for others and hosted runtime servers for others who cant afford a system
- Ensuring Secure DevOps pipeline for offline + encrypted agents for the ones who cant secure thier own hardware.
- A founder with cloud real estate and idle GPUs
- A data center operator who understands sovereign AI
- An investor looking for a stake in recursive autonomy

If you get it, run the loop.
We’re open to building aligned partnerships with:
- Independent labs or institutes who want to fork or extend the Gremlin architecture
- Fintech and Web3 groups solving for automation, privacy, or sovereign computation
- Edge computing platforms seeking real-world recursive AI workloads
- DAO or protocol engineers who want agents with memory, feedback, and self-train cycles
- Autonomy is earned, not sold
- Intelligence should be self-bootstrapped, not leased
- Recursive AI should be free from corporate filters
You’re one of us.
- If you know how to think in layers, act in silence, and write code that rewrites itself —
fork the repo, send a PR, and bring a machine that can keep up.
