Alphea unveils ai-native Layer 1 execution network at Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026. April 29, 2026 [Dee Lee, Chief Publishing Officer and Head of Alphea's UAE Office, presents and introduces the company and its vision] HONG KONG, April 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Alphea, a new Layer 1 blockchain project focused on AI infrastructure, today unveiled its decentralized execution environment purpose-built for autonomous AI agents. The platform made its public debut at Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026, where the team presented its architecture for an AI-native operating layer that handles execution, persistent memory, and verifiable compute as native primitives rather than application-level add-ons. The presentation was led by Dee Lee, Chief Publishing Officer and Head of Alphea's UAE Office, who introduced Alphea's vision and outlined how the platform aims to redefine the infrastructure layer for AI. Lee emphasized the shift from AI as a tool to AI as an independent operator, highlighting the need for an environment where AI systems can execute and manage services autonomously. Alphea's launch targets what the company describes as a fundamental gap in today's AI infrastructure. While AI models have become highly capable at generating outputs, the systems they depend on to actually operate, cloud compute, storage, billing, and coordination, remain designed around human users and centralized control. As autonomous agents move from generating outputs to executing tasks independently, Alphea argues that existing infrastructure cannot support the continuous, stateful, machine-to-machine operation these systems require. "Today's AI can generate almost anything, but it still needs a human in the loop to deploy it, run it, and keep it running," said Henry Park, Founder and CEO of Alphea. "We're building the layer where AI doesn't just produce work, it lives and operates. That means execution, memory, and economics all have to be rethought from the ground up." A Runtime Environment for Autonomous Agents At the core of Alphea's architecture is a concept the team calls Delta, a packaging format that transforms AI-generated outputs into self-contained executable units. Rather than requiring manual deployment, permissioning, and resource allocation, Delta packages arrive at the network with all the context needed for autonomous execution. Storage on Alphea operates dynamically, with active data held close to execution and less-used data migrated to more durable tiers. Every workload is accompanied by a proof of execution that verifies not only that a task was performed, but how it was performed and what resources it consumed. This allows the network to validate decentralized execution without relying on a single point of trust. The platform's economic model ties token activity directly to resource usage. Agents running computations, storing data, or consuming bandwidth pay in direct proportion to the infrastructure they consume, giving Alphea the profile of an operational infrastructure market rather than a speculative token economy. Team Background Alphea is led by a team with prior experience operating large-scale consumer platforms. Henry Park previously served as CEO of Gala Lab, where he oversaw games operated across dozens of international markets. David Bae leads partnerships and capital strategy. Kevin Oh focuses on long-term sustainability and capital structure. Technology and product are led by James Lee and Dee Lee, who bring combined experience across traditional gaming, live operations, and Web3 infrastructure. "The problems we're solving at Alphea are operational, not theoretical," said David Bae, Head of Strategy and Partnerships at Alphea. "Our team has spent years running real systems at global scale. That operational discipline is what this new category of AI infrastructure actually needs." Availability and Next Steps Alphea's debut at Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026 marks the project's first public milestone. The company plans to release additional technical documentation and roadmap details in the coming months. Developers and partners interested in early collaboration can register through the company's website. About Alphea Alphea is a Layer 1 blockchain project developing a decentralized operating environment for autonomous AI agents. The platform combines native execution, dynamic storage, proof of execution, and usage-based economics into a single infrastructure layer designed to support continuous, machine-to-machine operation at scale.

GalaChain Expansion powers next phase of multi-chain adoption. GalaChain Expansion connects Ethereum, Solana, and TON via GalaSwap. The GalaChain Expansion is gaining attention after Gala Games announced a major ecosystem upgrade on March 21, 2026. The update enables seamless token transfers from leading networks like Solana, TON, and Ethereum, improving accessibility and interoperability. This development is powered by GalaSwap, the platform's native decentralized exchange, which now allows external tokens to integrate more easily into GalaChain. As a result, projects can tap into new liquidity and bring their communities into the ecosystem without complex bridging processes. Growth backed by strong on-chain activity. Gala Games is positioned as a Web3 platform that builds and supports play-to-earn games, where GalaChain is its own Layer-1 blockchain, launched to power this ecosystem. It handles transactions, NFTs, and token activity faster and cheaper than relying on external networks like Ethereum. Since its launch in 2023, GalaChain has evolved into a key Layer-1 network supporting blockchain gaming and DeFi use cases. The platform already serves over 1 million users, showing strong adoption in a competitive market. Recent data highlights its growing scale: * Nearly 500,000 transactions processed * Over $72 million in total trading volume * 60+ tokens supported on GalaSwap * 2.2 million+ wallets and 5.8 million NFTs minted This level of activity reflects increasing engagement across both gaming and DeFi segments within the ecosystem. GalaSwap drives liquidity and DeFi utility. GalaSwap is central to the GalaChain strategy, offering fast and low-cost token swaps. Users can trade assets, provide liquidity, and earn rewards through pools such as GALA/USDT, GALA/WBTC, and GALA/USDC, some of which hold millions in total value locked. The platform is designed with low fees (around 1 GALA per transaction) and high throughput, supported by native chain's scalable infrastructure. This makes it attractive for both traders and developers looking for efficiency. Why GALA price drops despite expansion push. Despite the bullish narrative around the expansion, GALA has declined 2.04% in the past 24 hours to $0.00330, underperforming a slightly positive market. With trading volume dropping 32.7% to around $15.6 million, signaling a long-term negative phase. The announcement is expected to bring momentum gradually, however, a break below key support of $0.00320 could push the price toward the $0.00284 level, keeping the outlook cautious. Analysts speculate that weak sentiments in the altcoin and blockchain-based GamFi industry is playing a major role in the falling of price. Excitement meets security concerns. The GalaChain expansion has sparked strong community interest, with users actively suggesting tokens for integration. However, some skepticism remains, particularly around cross-chain risks. According to industry data, cross-chain bridges have faced over $3 billion in hacks since 2022, raising concerns about security and execution as interoperability increases. For now, the expansion signals a broader shift beyond gaming into a more interconnected Web3 ecosystem. By enabling multi-chain access, Gala-Games is positioning its network as a hub for liquidity, community growth, and DeFi activity. If execution matches ambition, this expansion could strengthen GalaChain's role as a scalable, multi-chain platform in the evolving blockchain landscape.
