Psy Protocol is building a new Layer-1 powered by Proof-of-Useful-Work — where real computation secures the network instead of wasting energy. Every user runs local ZK proofs, every block is verified by math, and each account can act as a programmable identity for humans or AI agents — forming the base of what Psy calls the trustless, decentralized internet.
The Psychonaut Incubation Program is your entry point 🧭 Complete quests, explore the testnet, and earn Psy Points — your reputation across the network. These points track your contribution and may later convert to $PSY token Airdrop rewards post-TGE once the mainnet goes live 🪂
About Psy Protocol
Psy Protocol combines zero-knowledge cryptography with a scalable system called PARTH — Parallel Ascending Recursive Tree Hierarchy — which splits the blockchain state into per-user partitions. This allows transactions to run in parallel instead of competing for space, enabling high throughput with full decentralization.
Each transaction is proven locally by the user, then combined into a single succinct proof per block. This replaces validator trust with pure mathematical verification. The network’s Proof-of-Useful-Work model turns computation into productive security, while Software-Defined Keys let wallets encode custom logic, time locks, and even AI behavior directly on-chain.
Psy builds on the research roots of QED Protocol, expanding its zero-knowledge architecture into a live, high-performance testnet designed for real-world scalability.
