Team
Onli is led by Dhryl Anton, Ian Mcfall, and a team of creative individuals with a shared passion. Bitcoin's key innovations were its consensus mechanism and infrastructure incentive scheme when it launched in 2009. Onli started in 2010, and we went in a completely different direction.
We have offices in Scottsdale, Alys Beach, and Las Vegas. Our team members have long-tenured careers in investment banking, hardware, software, and law.
We strongly believe that a small, focused team with a clear vision can build great things.
Product
It took 15 years for AI to catch up with our architecture. ONLI was built ahead of its time — not to ride the wave, but to change the water. By solving the Uniqueness Quantification Problem, ONLI unlocks a future where identity, property, and value in the digital world are as real, exclusive, and transferable as they are in the physical one. No more copies. No more ledgers. Just control, clarity, and trust — built directly into the data itself. This isn’t blockchain. This is a paradigm shift. The revolution most people never saw coming.
We believe that true innovation isn’t about hype — it’s about substance. With the advent of AI, we are standing at a pivotal moment in human history. It is time we start thinking about infrastructure for a different world not just the monetization of aggregation of micro-work. The systems we build now will shape how intelligence, ownership, and identity evolve in the digital world. It’s no longer enough to optimize for clicks, views, or the monetization of microcontent. We need infrastructure that respects intelligence, protects uniqueness, and enables meaningful human agency. ONLI was built for that future — not to ride the current wave, but to support a new foundation for what’s coming next.
Think Differently
While others were trying to fit digital ownership into traditional file systems and blockchain ledgers, we were asking a deeper question: What if the real problem is how data is organized in the first place? In 2008, we began designing a new kind of system — not based on files, tokens, or folders, but on intelligible data: data with identity, content, and context built into its structure. That’s the origin of ONLI. It’s not just a new technology — it’s a new model of computing. One that treats organization as an inherent part of what a thing is. By solving the Uniqueness Quantification Problem at the data layer, ONLI enables digital objects to become self-contained, ownable, and provably singular — something no system has done before. This isn’t just about storing data differently. It’s about seeing data itself as an intelligent unit — a digital organism — and rethinking everything that flows from that.
