Ontology unveils 2026 roadmap to build data sovereignty and AI ecosystem

Ontology (ONT), a decentralized identity and data infrastructure network, has unveiled its 2026 roadmap through its official channels. The plan emphasizes a strategy to build an ecosystem that combines data sovereignty with artificial intelligence (AI), shifting its focus from infrastructure development to product integration and real-world value creation. More specifically, Ontology's roadmap for this year includes: - Product integration, consolidating its product line into the ONTO Wallet - Upgrading its identity infrastructure to meet demand for real-world assets (RWA) - Combining blockchain and AI to expand token utility - Optimizing its EVM-compatible chain - Strengthening data sovereignty The new roadmap is designed based on a large-scale tokenomics overhaul from last year, during which Ontology capped the total supply of its Ontology Gas (ONG) token at 800 million by burning 200 million ONG. In January, the project also demonstrated its commitment to network optimization by reducing on-chain gas fees by 80% through community governance.
