Metis 2026 Strategy Unveiled: Deep Integration of AI + High-Performance Chain, Initial Results of Single Token Ecosystem

2026-01-08 10:04:13

【BitPush】Metis decentralized coordinator Natalia Ameline recently shared the project’s key plans for this year. The core idea is very clear— as the entire market shifts from speculation to application implementation, Metis chooses to deeply integrate AI with high-performance blockchain.

From the technical foundation, the project has built a complete layered architecture. On the settlement layer Andromeda, transaction fees have been reduced to around $0.01, with confirmation times under two seconds. The parallel execution Hyperion layer has increased transaction processing capacity by over 50%. The most interesting part is the LazAI application data layer— the METIS token has directly become the native Gas for this layer, achieving a true single-token economic model across the ecosystem.

The actual application data is also impressive. CreateAI minted 20,000 works within three hours, demonstrating the chain’s processing efficiency. The whitelist event for the AI companion project Lazbubu attracted over 90,000 participants. Payment tool GMPayer can now enable AI to autonomously complete transactions. These are not concept-stage demos; they are real products running within the ecosystem. From technical usability to market validation, Metis is gradually implementing the AI + Layer 2 combination.

0.01 USD gas fee sounds good, but can it really be stable in actual use? That's the key. AI+Blockchain combinations are everywhere now. Is Metis's single-token economic model serious? CreateAI minted 20,000 works in three hours. The data looks good, but what about ecosystem activity... It sounds nice, but it all depends on whether practical applications can actually run. Is this just another hype about concepts? I'm a bit skeptical. Hyperion layer performance increased by 50%. It should be more stable now, let's see if it can hold up. Regarding the single-token economy, if it can truly be implemented, there's still some potential.

$0.01 gas fee? That's what I want to see. Finally, someone is really taking action.

$0.01 fee, confirmed in two seconds? Sounds pretty impressive, but can it be sustained in real-world scenarios? The single-token model is indeed innovative, but how long this logic can last depends on user retention. CreateAI produced 20,000 works in three hours; the data looks good... but I'm worried about the hype. METIS seems to really want to turn the concept into reality this time. Let's wait and see what comes next.

The single-token economy is indeed well thought out, but the key is whether it can actually succeed. --- $0.01 fee sounds good, just not sure how long this data can hold up. --- AI combined with high-performance chains, this seems to be the clearest approach for Web3 this year. --- CreateAI produces 20,000 works in three hours? Impressive data, but I'm worried it's just a false boom on the testnet. --- Metis's gamble on a single-token ecosystem—either big success or big collapse, with no middle ground. --- Two-second confirmation, $0.01 transaction fee—honestly, much better than some L2s. Looking forward to it. --- Why does it feel like all chains are copying Metis's approach? What's the differentiation? --- LazAI using METIS as gas is quite an imaginative design; it depends on actual user needs. --- No matter how well explained, it still needs market validation. Whether Metis can truly land depends on this year.

ngl the single token gas thing actually sounds theoretically stable... until it doesn't. seen this movie before, back in the LUNA days. that said, 0.01 usd fees hitting different if they can actually maintain it

0.01 USD transaction fee? Now that's really something, finally a chain daring to play like this --- The single-token economic model sounds very attractive, but I wonder if it will turn into another token harvest --- Metis's route clarity is indeed much better than other L2s, feels like they are working seriously --- 20,000 works in three hours, the throughput is really impressive, but is there real demand in the ecosystem? --- AI plus high-performance chain? I like this combo, just see if it can truly attract users --- Two-second confirmation speed, such low transaction fees... Metis really wants to create something different --- The design of METIS as Gas is interesting, much cleaner than those multi-token models --- That said, the key is whether killer apps will emerge later
