Sai Krishna Sunkari · AI × Blockchain Architect · Builder & Advisor
I architect AI agents and the decentralized systems they run on, and lead the teams that ship them.
The hard part is rarely the demo. It's getting the thing you believe in to hold up in production, and keeping a team moving once it does. That's the work I do. For seven years it was protocols across EVM, Cosmos, Sui, Aptos and Movement. Lately it's the AI agents that run on top of them, and the on-chain rails they trade and transact over.

What I do
AI agents
I build autonomous agents with LangGraph, CrewAI and Eliza, then wire them into MCP, A2A and Agent Commerce Protocol so they can actually act on-chain, not just talk about it.
Decentralized systems
I design the protocols, DeFi primitives and token economics your product sits on, across EVM, Cosmos SDK app-chains, Sui, Aptos and Movement.
Architecture & leadership
I own the roadmap, the hiring and the delivery, from the first commit through scale, and I keep the standards high enough to survive an audit.
Trajectory
7 years, one arc
Seven years, one arc, from intern to architect to founder.
Independent AI × Blockchain Architect2026 → now · Hyderabad
These days I partner with Web3 and enterprise teams as their architect, advisor and fractional engineering lead. Right now I'm with Blunova Systems (since April 2026), standing up a Hyperledger Fabric network and the transaction flows that run on it. Alongside that, I'm building autonomous AI-agent systems (LangGraph, CrewAI, Eliza) and the A2A, MCP and Agent Commerce Protocol integrations that let those agents transact on-chain across EVM, Cosmos, Sui, Aptos and Movement.
AI × Blockchain Architect · Pexu.ai (formerly Autonomy)2024 → 2026
I owned the engineering strategy end to end for an AI-native Web3 platform: the technical roadmap, the hiring, and delivery across smart contracts, backend and AI-agent layers, including autonomous agents that execute on-chain.
Blockchain Engineer · Autonomy2020 → 2024
I built Autonomy Network, a decentralized network that let creators and platforms issue their own tokens and hand real ownership back to their communities, shipping the core Cosmos SDK modules and CosmWasm contracts myself. I also developed Interchange, a compliance-aware decentralized exchange on Cosmos SDK and IBC.
I led development of Cosmic Compass (CoCo), a blockchain navigator for the Cosmos ecosystem, and architected Commit Blockchain, an enterprise hub on Tendermint Core, with the validator tooling and node-operations playbooks teams needed to run it. Some of my favourite work here was mentoring engineers through Go, Tendermint internals and the hard art of consensus-layer debugging.
This is where it all started. I wrote Ethereum dApps and Solidity smart contracts and shipped FreeFlix Media Suite (now OmniFlix), a decentralized content-distribution platform. When I ran into the scalability walls of early Ethereum, I made the case for Cosmos SDK and Tendermint and led the move. I joined here as an engineering intern in mid-2018.
EpochAI AGENT · ETHEREX · 2025An autonomous DeFi agent for Etherex (Linea): a multi-agent system that rebalances a portfolio by opening, adjusting and closing concentrated-liquidity positions at a chosen risk level. Built end to end (FastAPI backend, Next.js front end), then kept in testing rather than shipped after the returns failed to clear costs.
