Endless
Move-language Layer-1 blockchain pitching itself as the 'AI plus Web3 connector'
A $1B valuation sits on a March 2025 token round, with no independently verified users, developers, or revenue surfacing in the 16 months since.
Endless built a blockchain network using the Move programming language and promised to make it easier for regular software developers to build crypto apps using AI. But the big AI companies like OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic already give away free code-writing tools that work just as well, and Endless's own AI tool is free and open to copy. Meanwhile, two other Move blockchains, Sui and Aptos, already have more developers and bigger networks, and nothing stops them from adding the same AI features Endless offers. The only thing that would prove Endless is actually being used would be public numbers showing real activity, like how many developers are building on it or how much money flows through it, but sixteen months after launch there are still none of these numbers from any trusted independent source.
Endless announces a new funding round or valuation update after its March 2025 raise. Would show top-tier crypto capital still has confidence in the project.
Sui's institutional products (CME futures, Grayscale/21Shares ETFs launched May 2026) keep expanding through 2026. Would confirm capital and developer attention is consolidating around the larger Move-chain incumbent, not Endless.

| Rival | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Sui | losing to | Sui at ~$2.76B market cap and 954 monthly devs vs Endless's zero verified metrics, as of Jul 2026 |
| Aptos | losing to | Aptos at ~$500M market cap and 465 monthly devs, still exceeding Endless's unverified traction, Jul 2026 |
| OpenAI, Anthropic, Google (frontier code models) | losing to | Frontier coding models replicate Move code generation, undercutting Endless's Move-LM differentiator, Dec 2025 |

- Is Endless profitable in 2026?
- No revenue, ARR, or profitability data has ever been disclosed for Endless. As of July 2026, the only financial fact on record is its $110M raise at a $1B valuation in March 2025, with no independent trader or developer metrics published since.
- What is Endless's biggest competitor?
- Sui and Aptos, the two larger Move-language blockchains, are Endless's closest rivals. As of July 2026, Sui carries a roughly $2.76B market cap and 954 monthly active developers versus Endless's zero independently verified developer metrics.
- Could AI replace what Endless does?
- Endless's core pitch is AI-assisted Move code generation for developers, but frontier coding models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google already do general code generation, and Endless's own Move-LM tool is open-source, meaning it creates no exclusive moat against those models.
- Who owns Endless?
- Endless is privately held and venture-backed, led by Foresight Ventures, which closed a $110M round valuing the project at $1B in March 2025 (vendor-claimed). No later funding round, acquisition, or IPO has been reported as of July 2026.
- Has Endless shipped any real product since its mainnet launch?
- Endless launched its Move-language mainnet in March 2025 and released an open-source AI model for Move code called Move-LM in December 2025, co-developed with the University of Surrey, but no independently verified user or transaction data exists for either.
- How does Endless compare to Sui and Aptos on developer activity?
- As of July 2026, Sui reports about 954 monthly active developers and Aptos about 465, both measured by Messari. Endless has no comparable third-party developer count published, making direct benchmarking against either rival impossible.
