His leadership propelled IO.net to secure $2 million in a seed round with a $10 million fully diluted valuation in June 2023, followed by a groundbreaking $40 million Series A round at a $1 billion FDV in March 2024. This rapid growth culminated in the successful launch of the $IO coin on Binance, with a remarkable $4.5 billion FDV in June 2024.Ahmad is a visionary behind the DeAIO – an Autonomous AI Organization, the next step in the evolution of DAOs which is aiming to revolutionize AI governance and development.
