About Aventus

Aventus DAO is a non-profit dedicated to bringing enterprises onchain.

Today the project is governed as a non-profit DAO, registered in the UAE, with two products live in production: Aventus Cloud, a decentralised compute network open to any blockchain, and Aventus Enterprise Appchains, custom blockchains built on Substrate for businesses that need their logic in the runtime.

What we do

Two products. One ecosystem. Built for real businesses.

Aventus Cloud

A decentralised compute network open to any blockchain. Buying a node licence means running a light client on a normal computer and earning rewards in AVT and in the tokens of every appchain that uses the network for compute services such as oracle queries, business logic execution, and summary verification.

Enterprise Appchains

Custom blockchains built on Substrate, shaped to your business logic and deployed by Chain Reactor. Your runtime, your token, your governance, ready to plug into Aventus Cloud for decentralised compute, oracle services, and summary verification.

Our Story

Pioneering real-world blockchain since 2017.

Since 2017, Aventus has been pioneering real-world applications of blockchain, working with some of the largest enterprises in the world to bring production-grade infrastructure to market.

2017

Aventus Classic with onchain ticketing

Aventus' journey began in 2017 as Aventus Classic, providing blockchain-powered solutions to the ticketing industry. The goal was to give ticket issuers and ticket owners a more seamless experience through improved oversight, lasting communication, ticket standardisation, and reduced costs.

2018

Aventus Network begins

Aventus quickly realised the need for a scalable platform that would work for the original vision and for other use cases. The team began work on Aventus Network, a solution designed to achieve the required levels of scale and privacy without compromising on native security and independence.

2019

Polkadot parachain enables enterprise reach

Aventus Network became a parachain on Polkadot while maintaining the original capabilities developed for the Aventus Network, including its interoperability with Ethereum. This brought enterprise capabilities and transaction workloads into the Polkadot ecosystem and gave the team access to expanded user and developer communities.

From there, Aventus broadened the reach of its product and its expertise, providing growth to enterprises across aviation, energy, rewards, supply chain, and prediction markets.

2026

Aventus Cloud launches with community ownership

Aventus Cloud went live on mainnet in April 2026, opening the underlying infrastructure as a community-owned decentralised network. Up to 40,000 nodes will run the Cloud, executing decentralised compute work, oracle queries, and summary verification for any appchain that plugs in. The Founding Tranche sold out within weeks of launch, and the Genesis Tranche is now live.

How the DAO works

Governed by the community. Run by the DAO team.

Aventus DAO is a non-profit organisation governed by AVT holders. That means major decisions about the network, the products, the community treasury, and the roadmap are made through onchain proposals and votes.

Anyone holding AVT can vote. Proposals are submitted, debated, and voted on at gov.aventus.io.
