The first wave of the Genesis Auction sold out faster than expected, setting a new benchmark for the XMAQUINA DAO.
Beyond the initial contributions to seed the DAO’s treasury, this was a defining moment in decentralizing the future of robotics and Physical AI, ensuring that control over the machine economy is placed where it belongs: in the hands of the people.
The DEUS Genesis Auction set a precedent, breaking away from the typical VC-dominated model and allowing anyone to participate on equal terms.
With 1,045 contributors and new DAO members, this auction proved that the future of robotics and automation doesn’t need to be dictated by a select few—it can be built from the ground up, by a network of aligned visionaries who see the opportunity ahead. The system is changing, and those who recognize it early are already taking part.
With 3.704M PEAQ contributed, this first wave has laid the foundation for what comes next. The level of support from both institutional investors and grassroots contributors highlights a shifting tide—one where DePAI (Decentralized Physical AI) is emerging as a force to watch.
Among other top investors in Web3, this movement is backed by MH Ventures, Mulana Capital, and Signal Ventures, reinforcing the growing demand for decentralized automation.
Notable angels include Anil Lulla, Co-founder of Delphi Digital, and Markus Ogurek, former Vice President of Enterprise Growth at Cisco. Their expertise in technology, and decentralized networks adds strategic value to the DAO’s mission.
The participation of both retail investors and institutional players on equal terms is unprecedented in the robotics and AI space.
The first 1,045 contributors represent just the start. Future auctions will further distribute $DEUS, expanding governance and ensuring decision-making power remains decentralized.
The machine economy is no longer a concept; it’s actively being built, and those who recognize the shift are taking part.
“Watching over 1,000 new DAO members join Wave 1 has been incredible. Just a year ago, decentralized robotics was an ambitious idea—now, DePAI is becoming a global movement with contributors actively participating in the future of automation. With Wave 2 ahead, even more contributors will have the opportunity to help define what comes next.” — Jessica Alvarez, Founding DAO Member, XMAQUINA
