This audio is presented by Hacker Noon, where anyone can learn anything about any technology. How Lumos is unlocking AI-powered decentralized apps with MCP and Web3 by Lumos, formerly Opside. MCP, Metacontext Protocol, as an emerging interaction protocol, aims to achieve seamless connectivity between AI and applications, providing AI agents with standardized interfaces to call external functions and data. In this field, Lumos, as a significant driver and leader of Web 3 infrastructure innovation, has taken the lead in shaping the MCP ecosystem.

Currently, Lumos has successfully launched the MCP server, and users can now experience the innovative interaction capabilities brought by this cutting-edge technology through Cloud Desktop. In the future, Lumos will continue to expand the boundaries of MCP applications, launching more feature-rich, high-quality AI products and further leading the new direction of AI and Web3 collaborative evolution. Background Web3, the next generation of the Internet driven by blockchain, is transforming the digital ecosystem with decentralization at its core. Although smart contracts are a powerful feature of Web 3, ordinary users face numerous barriers when trying to engage with it. The complexity of the technology is the foremost challenge, with obscure technical terms such as wallet

management, signing transactions, and gas fee calculations creating a wall that is difficult for non-technical users to overcome. At the same time, the rapid development of artificial intelligence, i.e. particularly breakthroughs in large language models, LLMs, in intent recognition and context understanding, has opened up unprecedented possibilities for cross-domain interactions. However, before the advent of MCP, AI's primary functions were concentrated in content generation and could not directly execute tasks based on user intent. It primarily served as an assistive tool.

The emergence of MCP has completely changed this situation. It empowers AI to flexibly handle various types of data and applications. The integration of MCP with Web3 gives AI the capability to perform complex on-chain operations, enabling ordinary users to simply make requests, and AI can seamlessly handle the complex logic and operations behind the scenes, significantly lowering the barriers to using Web3. The introduction of MCP has brought a qualitative leap to the development of AI and opened up new possibilities for expanding the Web3 ecosystem. MCP protocol, MCP, Model Context Protocol, is an open standard introduced by Anthropic in late November 2024.

Its core goal is to enable AI agents to accurately understand user intent and call corresponding application functions. The two key points of MCP are 1. Intent recognition, relying on the natural language understanding capabilities of large language models to interpret user needs. 2. Application invocation, requiring applications to provide standardized functional interfaces for AI agents to call. provide standardized functional interfaces for AI agents to call. mcp decouples AI's computational capabilities from the execution capabilities of applications through a standardized protocol design, enabling cross-platform and cross-application collaboration. The mcp protocol, developed by Anthropic, has garnered widespread attention. Its simple design based on JSON RPC2.0

supports bidirectional communication and rich contextual interaction, providing a USB-C-type universal interface for connecting AI with external systems. Core components of the MCP protocol, MCP host. Any application that wants to interact with local data or the Internet

through the MCP protocol, such as a locally running LLM model or AI applications. MCP Client. A program used to interact with the MCP protocol. MCP Server. A program used to interact with local data or internet data. Deep Integration of MCP and Web3. The MCP protocol provides a feasible solution for the integration of AI and Web3 through standardized interfaces and decentralized contracts. 1. Standardized Interfaces and Intent Recognition Unified Interaction Standards.

MCP establishes a unified standard for interactions between AI and various Web3 applications through standardized interfaces. This allows AI to seamlessly interact with DApps, smart contracts, and data services on different blockchains without the need to redevelop and adapt interfaces for each specific application. Accurate Intent Recognition With the powerful natural language processing capabilities of large language models, LLMs, MCP can accurately interpret the needs and intentions expressed by Web3 users in natural language. Based on these recognized intentions, AI can call corresponding smart contracts and other functions through standardized interfaces, automating the entire

process without requiring users to manually operate complex transaction interfaces or fill out intricate transaction parameters. 2. Stable invocation of decentralized contracts reliability guarantee of smart contracts. In Web 3, smart contracts are core components for decentralized applications, andons deployed, they possess immutability and deterministic execution. The integration of MCP with smart contracts ensures that AI's invocation of smart contracts is highly stable and reliable. Operational transparency and traceability, the decentralized nature of blockchain guarantees the immutability and transparency of transaction records, ensuring

that all operations performed by AI when calling smart contracts to execute transactions are traceable and secured by the consensus mechanism of the blockchain network. Every transaction completed through the MCP invocation of a smart contract will leave a permanent record on the blockchain, allowing users to query and verify the transaction execution status at any time, ensuring the security of assets and operational transparency. 3. Scalability of the decentralized ecosystem cross-chain operations and ecosystem integration MCP provides AI with the ability to cross different blockchain ecosystems.

Web3 is a multi-chain ecosystem where different blockchain networks focus on varying functionalities, performance, and use cases. MCP integrates these multi-chain resources, enabling AI to freely invoke smart contracts and data services across different blockchains, facilitating cross-chain operations. Developer Innovation and Ecosystem Expansion The open standard of MCP offers developers vast space for innovation, driving the expansion of the entire Web3 ecosystem. Developers can build a variety of new AI services, D apps, and smart contract plugins based on MCP, enriching the web 3 application

ecosystem. Lumos MCP, innovation in web 3 and AI practice. Lumos, a leading provider of web 3 infrastructure, is dedicated to building an efficient decentralized computing network that supports the integration of blockchain and AI. Lumos's network provides high-performance computation and storage support for Web3 applications through modular design and zero-knowledgeproof, ZKP, technology.
