The operating system of the robot economy: How does ROBO empower machines with on-chain identity?
We are witnessing the birth of the M2M (machine-to-machine) economy as robots begin to have wallets, autonomously pay for charging fees, purchase computing power, and sign service contracts. And @Fabric Foundation is at the core of this transformation.

$ROBO The airdrop claim window is now open, and the deadline is March 13. On February 27, Gate and Binance Alpha will simultaneously launch spot trading, and Gate will also introduce perpetual contracts with up to 50x leverage. Bitget has also opened the ROBO/USDT trading pair.
🏗️ Core Architecture
The OM1 operating system, developed by the OpenMind team led by Stanford Professor Jan Liphardt, is hailed as the 'Android for Robots.' It allows robots from different manufacturers (like UBTECH, AgiBot) to share intelligence and execute on-chain transactions. The Fabric Foundation provides the economic and governance layer—decentralized identity, payment, and coordination infrastructure.
⚙️ Tech Moat: PoRW
Fabric pioneers the 'Robot Work Proof' (PoRW) consensus mechanism, distributing rewards by validating real-world robotic labor. This enables robots to:
Holding crypto keys, owning on-chain identity
Self-sourcing charging, cloud computing power, and other services
Matching tasks in the decentralized market and settling in ROBO
💰 Funding and Ecosystem
In August 2025, OpenMind completed a $20 million funding round led by Pantera Capital, with participation from top firms like Coinbase Ventures, DCG, Amber Group, among others.
The first Titan project in collaboration with Virtuals Protocol has launched, bridging the economic loop between AI Agents and physical robots. The total supply of ROBO is 10 billion tokens, with 5% allocated for community airdrops (100% TGE unlock).
As robots become independent economic entities, $ROBO is writing new rules. Are you ready to embrace this future?
