IP innovation, AI ventures, and blockchain leadership by Jason Zhao

Jason Zhao co-founded Story Protocol in 2021, a blockchain project engineering programmable intellectual property rights. The platform raised over US $130 million and supported millions in on-chain IP transactions. After more than 3½ years as CEO, Zhao transitioned to a strategic advisor role in August 2025, turning attention fully toward his new AI venture, Poseidon. Poseidon targets frontier sectors like biopharma, robotics, and space—with Zhao leading product and vision.

Story Protocol’s token (IP) markets reflect user trust, with price stability even amid leadership changes. Zhao’s move sparked community discussion but ensured continuity via adviser role and smooth CEO transition to co-founder SY Lee. Background includes AI-focused work at DeepMind, accompanied by degrees in philosophy and computer science from Oxford and Stanford. Compensation from equity and executive leadership placed annual earnings in the seven-figure USD range. With visibility across crypto and AI communities, Zhao now occupies a rare junction of Web3 innovation and advanced AI research.
