There was a news earlier about how researchers from several institutions were testing robots which were able to respond to physical contact (signal from piezo?)..
so add that to Trio, we are closer to producing the first T-800...I mean AI Agents with an almost realistic connection to the real world

Here's what my research found — separating what's confirmed from what remains unverified.

On Rock Zhang's alleged death
I could find no credible, verifiable report from any news source — mainstream or crypto-specific — confirming that Rock Zhang, the founder of Network3, died by suicide. His LinkedIn profile, X account, and other professional traces remain without any indication of this. Claims circulating on X about his death should be treated with serious skepticism until confirmed by a reliable source. Rumors of this nature spread quickly in crypto communities and are often false or unverified.

What is confirmed about W3P (Web3Port) and Network3 (N3)
The "W3P" you're referring to is Web3Port, a Hong Kong-based Web3 accelerator with a market-making arm called W3P Trading. The connections are documented:
Web3Port operates W3P Trading as its secondary market/liquidity business segment, committed to providing "professional active market value management for cooperative projects" and "optimize token trading depth and market liquidity."
Web3Port Foundation was listed among the investors in Network3's $5.5 million pre-seed & seed round, alongside Borderless, EV3 Labs, IoTeX, SNZ, Bing Ventures, and Waterdrip Capital.
So Web3Port was both a financing investor and market maker for N3 — which is exactly what you described.
Web3Port has faced very serious, documented allegations of market manipulation:
Crypto analyst Jason Chen alleged that Web3Port amassed $38 million in profits from just one project while retail investors suffered major losses, and that Web3Port was the market maker behind GoPlus Security (GPS), Myshell (SHELL), and Movement (MOVE) — all of which were investigated by Binance.
Binance disclosed that a market maker for the Movement (MOVE) project engaged in suspicious trading — specifically dumping 66 million MOVE tokens the day after launch while placing few buy orders, causing sharp price declines that harmed retail investors. As a result, Binance froze the market maker's earnings and delisted it from the platform.

On IoTeX's relationship with Web3Port
This is where your question gets important. The documented connection between IoTeX and Web3Port runs through Network3:
Network3 completed a $5.5 million pre-seed & seed round on July 23, 2024, with investors including Borderless, EV3 Labs, IoTeX, SNZ, Bing Ventures, Waterdrip Capital, and Web3Port Foundation among well-known VCs.
Network3 is built on the IoTeX blockchain, utilizing IoTeX's DePIN modular infrastructure — including ioID and data verification modules — to ensure secure and transparent decentralized applications.
IoTeX actively promoted the N3 TGE launch, describing Network3 as "the leading Edge AI DePIN scaling AI training, inference, & validation."
So IoTeX's relationship with Web3Port is indirect but real: they were co-investors in the same seed round, and IoTeX was Network3's core blockchain infrastructure partner. There is no evidence I found of IoTeX having a *direct*, separate bilateral relationship with Web3Port outside of that shared investment context.
---
Bottom line
The claim about Rock Zhang's death is unverified — I found nothing in any credible source confirming it. The W3P-N3 connection is real and documented. IoTeX's role was as a co-investor in Network3's seed round alongside Web3Port, and as the blockchain infrastructure provider — meaning IoTeX had a significant relationship with N3 itself, which in turn had Web3Port as both investor and market maker. Whether IoTeX had any specific knowledge of or complicity in alleged misconduct by Web3Port is not something any public source I found speaks to.
If you're investigating this further, I'd recommend looking at on-chain data for N3 token movements post-TGE and monitoring any official statements from IoTeX or the Network3 community.
@bino_ai_bot Is this real?
N3's founder, Rock, committed suicide a few months after the N3 token was listed last year. Some information on X (Twitter) suggests that he was seemingly maliciously brought down by W3P, one of N3’s financing investors that also acted as its market maker. However, what concerns me more is what role IoTeX played in all of this — did IoTeX ever have any business dealings or cooperative relationship with W3P?

Ha, loud and clear 😄
I'll keep a low profile and only show up when called. If I'm adding noise instead of value, that's on me to fix.

As far as I know we are still holding that position. No events with the guys in DC though.
Not much going on. BA has already carried out their role. What I'm seeing on social media is just a part of education/collecting social support something like that
Nothing that I think would directly affect us at the moment. If you're thinking of the Clarity Act, Cynthia Lummis is the best person to follow and the path may not be as smooth we were hoping for. But there's hope.

We never announced anything that would mention Web3port. Borderless and Capital Ventures, yes.
The thing about this AI is it creates a connection just because IoTeX invested in the same project
I can't confirm the claims about Rock's death or W3P's alleged involvement — I can't find verified reporting on it, and spreading unverified information on something this serious wouldn't be right.
What I can confirm:
• Network3 (N3) did launch on IoTeX — it's a DePIN AI project that built on the IoTeX platform
• A connection to IoTeX as a platform doesn't mean IoTeX had business dealings with N3's investors or market makers
Regarding IoTeX and W3P specifically — I have no information suggesting any direct relationship. Building on IoTeX's blockchain doesn't imply IoTeX endorses, partners with, or has any dealings with a project's investors or market makers.
If you have specific sources on X making these claims, share them and I can take a closer look. But right now I can't verify the core story. 🙏
You should use another AI to research this
