When I realized that robots need an "ID card": OpenMind shows me the future



The first time I heard the founder of OpenMind say that, I was stunned.

"When a passerby asks if you're afraid of robots, you can just show them the Ethereum contract address, proving that this robot complies with Asimov's laws."

This sentence struck me like lightning, completely changing my understanding of robots and blockchain.

Why do robots need an "ID card"?
Have you thought about this question?

Current robots are like small kingdoms operating independently—Tesla's robots only recognize Tesla's system, Boston Dynamics' robots live in their own closed world. A delivery robot encounters a cleaning robot, and they can't even say "hello" to each other.

This is absurd!

What OpenMind is doing, in simple terms, is issuing an "ID card" to all robots. With an identity on the blockchain, Company A's delivery robot can tell Company B's charging station: who I am, I need to charge, and here is my payment proof. No need for humans to fuss over it, no need to sign a bunch of agreements.

This isn't a social platform; it's a new era operating system
Many people compare OpenMind to those Web3 social platforms, but I think that's a complete misunderstanding of the direction.

It's more like Android back in the day—providing all phone manufacturers with a universal system so they don't have to reinvent the wheel from scratch. OpenMind's OM1 system is exactly that role; any robot can use it, whether it has four legs or two.

And the FABRIC protocol is the "trust network" that allows these robots to trust and collaborate with each other. Honestly, this is the real infrastructure!

But I still have some concerns
The technological concept is indeed cool, but execution? Ridiculously difficult.

Robots require millisecond-level responses, but blockchain confirmations take several seconds. How to solve this contradiction? Hardware from different manufacturers varies greatly—how can they truly collaborate instead of just pretending? Even more frightening, if hacked, a robot could go out of control and cause harm—who is responsible?

And don't forget, giants like Tesla and Google could crush this at any time.

But even so, I can't help but be excited about this direction. Because this might be the first time the crypto world truly enters the physical world—not just trading coins and NFTs, but enabling robots to build trust and collaborate like humans.

This is the future I want to see.
