01About
I'm Gianluca Perletti, CTO of Original AI and Noku, and the lead author of the ERC-2980 standard. I build systems that have to work when nobody is watching.
Over the past 10+ years I've shipped multichain wallet infrastructure, city-scale crypto payment networks (like MyLugano), and now sovereign AI agents that protect enterprise data. I care about sovereignty: over data, over money, and over the machines we delegate decisions to.
My engineering ethos is deeply rooted in cybersecurity, cryptography, and adversarial thinking. I build resilient architectures assuming they are constantly under attack, an approach that has driven me to contribute to core protocols and execution clients. My expertise runs deep across the Bitcoin ecosystem (Core, Lightning Network, Arkade OS, and BIP standards) through to diverse networks like Ethereum, Erigon, ICP, Monero, and Zcash, with a heavy focus on Zero-Knowledge (ZK) applications.
In the AI ecosystem, my focus is on the infrastructure and orchestration layers. From deploying massive LLMs on datacenters for high-concurrency serving, to designing complex LLM routing networks, I build the engines that make deep autonomous agents reliable in production. But I also know that AI is not just code, it is language. I design systems that decouple the rigorous backend engineering from the behavioral layer. This ensures the infrastructure is rock-solid, while allowing domain experts with humanistic insight, rather than just developers, to shape the agents' cognitive behavior. The result is a sovereign architecture that scales massively without losing its actual intelligence.
I don't do buzzwords. I ship.

Featured
Sovereign enterprise AI platform with zero data retention. Private, secure, agent-first architecture for companies that can't afford to leak data.
Institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure for Switzerland. Created by the Municipality of Lugano in partnership with Noku as the core technical partner.
Universal protocol for cross-chain and cross-system value transfer. Enterprise-grade infrastructure connecting fragmented blockchain ecosystems without traditional bridges.
City-scale crypto payment infrastructure. Mobile app for citizens with municipal LVGA token.
Swiss Compliant Asset Token. Authored the official Ethereum standard for asset tokens compliant with FINMA and Swiss financial laws.
Bitcoin and USDT accepted across the entire city. Payment rails, merchant onboarding, and protocol integration.
Technical mentorship and collaboration for the Web3 incubator created by the City of Lugano and the DFINITY Foundation. Fostering the ICP ecosystem.
