18.5.2022 09:32:04 CEST | Business Wire | Press release
Today, Metanomic (https://www.metanomic.net/ ) announces it has acquired Intoolab A.I (https://www.intoolab.com/ ) , a Bayesian Network Artificial Intelligence company, to expand and to improve data analysis and A.I across video games and Web3. This acquisition augments Metanomic’s current game economy infrastructure that allows developers to build, simulate and run balanced game economies and core gameplay loops in a live, real-time environment.
The addition of artificial intelligence helps developers create better experiences through intelligent insight from player behaviour in run-time. As a part of the acquisition the existing solution will be rebranded to Thunderstruck and extend the capabilities of the Metanomic Engine.
A more intelligent approach to video game development and Web3 analytics
Thunderstruck is based on a new approach to artificial intelligence that is not based on off the shelf machine learning algorithms but a powerful combination of Deep Learning and Dynamic Bayesian Networks. The solution has already been successfully proven in Healthcare and the technology is now being applied initially to video games and Web3 in a number of core applications -
- Web 3 Intelligence relating to game and NFT discovery and recommendation for tailored and personalized results to the user or player
- Game Economy Intelligence providing Economy Balance Prediction, Gamer Categorisation, Gameplay Recommendations, Retention Strategies and NPC Intelligence
- Ad Categorization delivers analytics around player and consumer classification both on and off-chain for in-game advertising networks to drive more personalized results
- DeFI Intelligence providing on and off-chain user profiling for DeFi insight into asset purchases and income for new products and services, reputation scoring and more.
“Web3 and metaverse are the next big thing that will affect our everyday lives in so many dimensions and we couldn’t be at a better place and time with our technology, to take the next step and introduce Dynamic Bayesian Networks to this untapped and exciting new market,” said Nikos Tzagkarakis , CEO and Co-founder of IntooLab who joins Metanomic as their incoming Chief AI Officer.
“We knew from the first time we met Theo and the rest of the team, that joining the incredible Metanomic powerhouse is our best bet to be part of an unmatched platform for Web3, game economies and the metaverse.
“The incredible traction we’ve seen across both the traditional games industry, web3, and play-and-earn games for the beta of our economy platform already puts us in a strong position to help developers build more fun and engaging experiences,” Theo Priestley, CEO of Metanomic said.
"With the acquisition of an artificial intelligence platform we can deliver more power to developers through real-time player insight as well as the most advanced game economy solution in the industry.”
With the acquisition also comes the commitment to continue to build the company’s development hub in Greece, supporting the local startup community and tech economy.
Thunderstruck is available for trial and partner integration from today. The Metanomic Engine is a complete, free to use game economy design and run-time solution for game developers across Web3 and traditional games and is currently in a closed beta.

Post-Quantum’s Algorithm - Classic McEliece - Achieves Global ISO Standardization to Protect the World From Quantum Cyber Attack15.7.2026 10:00:00 CEST | Press release
Ultra-secure encryption algorithm added to ISO standard for Asymmetric Ciphers Classic McEliece is first PQC algorithm to achieve global standardization Organisations in 177 ISO member states can now adopt Classic McEliece to remain secure from attack by both classical and quantum computers Governments including Germany and the Netherlands already recommend the highly secure Classic McEliece algorithm due to its unmatched security credentials It’s proven that today’s encryption is vulnerable to attack by a sufficiently mature quantum computer running Shor’s algorithm - a catastrophic event commonly known as Q-Day. Even before such a cryptographically relevant quantum computer emerges it is known that adversaries are stealing encrypted data now, which can be decrypted later - also known as Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL). Google’s recent use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to optimise Shor’s algorithm reduces the number of physical qubits required to break today’s encryption, therefor
Thredd Joins The Visa Agentic Ready Programme, Bringing Agent Network Readiness To Issuers Across Europe, Starting With Zilch15.7.2026 09:00:00 CEST | Press release
Thredd, the AI-first issuer processing platform, today announced it has joined the Visa Agentic Ready programme, enabling issuers across Europe to participate in agent-initiated payments without rebuilding their payments infrastructure. Consumer payments platform Zilch will be among the first issuers on the platform to enable agent-initiated payments for its cardholders. As a processor and enabler, Thredd sits at the trust layer of the payments ecosystem. By joining the programme, Thredd is ready to support Visa and its clients as the market moves into agentic commerce. Agentic commerce introduces a new type of payment initiator: An AI agent acting on a cardholder's behalf. The core payments principles do not change. Cardholder permission, issuer approval, authentication and fraud monitoring all still apply. What changes is how trust is established and enforced at the point an agent transacts. Taking a Zilch customer as an example, a cardholder might ask an AI agent to find a product w
