$150M Valuation, No Gas Fees, and AI Agents: Wire Network Taps Rogozinski to Lead Next-Gen Blockchain Finance
Staff Writer • 2025-04-13
LOS ANGELES, CA – Jaime Rogozinski, the founder of WallStreetBets and cultural catalyst of the retail investing revolution, has officially joined Wire Network as Chief Strategy Officer (CSO). The appointment signals a major move for the blockchain infrastructure startup, recently valued at $150 million, as it positions itself at the crossroads of AI, DeFi, and global-scale blockchain interoperability. Known for building one of the most disruptive financial communities of the past decade, Rogozinski will now lead strategic growth initiatives at Wire, helping steer its mission to power a universal, gas-free transaction layer that connects all blockchains and digital agents. “We are at a defining moment for blockchain and AI,” said Ken DiCross, CEO of Wire Network. “Few people have reshaped financial culture like Jaime. His ability to spot emerging trends and rally global communities is exactly what we need as we build the foundation of decentralized AI and finance.” From Meme Markets to AI-Powered Agents Wire Network has been gaining momentum since unveiling MutAgents, AI-powered blockchain agents showcased at ETH Denver, and announcing a key partnership with Yuga Labs’ ApeChain. Now, with Rogozinski onboard, the company is poised to redefine how people and machines interact with digital value across chains. “Just like WallStreetBets brought finance to the people, Wire Network is bringing Web3 to everyone,” Rogozinski said. “We’re eliminating friction between blockchains, abstracting gas fees, and enabling AI agents to transact freely across ecosystems. This is what the future of finance looks like.” The Universal Transaction Layer (UTL) developed by Wire is designed to enable fast, secure, trustless transactions—regardless of what chain you're on. With a universal wallet, crypto single sign-on, and zero gas fees, Wire removes the pain points that have long hindered blockchain adoption. A September Launch—and a Bold Vision With an official launch set for September 2025, Wire’s roadmap includes expanding access to decentralized financial tools, onboarding AI agent frameworks, and building real-world interoperability across L1s, L2s, and application layers. Rogozinski’s role will focus on integrating mainstream financial behaviors into the new Web3 paradigm—focusing on community, accessibility, and financial experimentation. In his words: “We’re building not just a protocol, but a movement—one that merges AI automation, cross-chain utility, and real user ownership.” To learn more, visit wire.network.
