OpenServ Names Joey Kheireddine Head of Blockchain, Joining From Eliza Labs (Formerly Al16z)

August 20, 2025 – London, United Kingdom

OpenServ , the leading full-stack AI app-building infrastructure in Web 3.0, today named Joey Kheireddine as head of blockchain.

Kheireddine joins OpenServ from his former role as head of engineering for Eliza Labs, bringing enterprise-scale experience at the intersection of agentic AI and crypto to accelerate OpenServ’s on-chain roadmap.

Tim Hafner, CEO of OpenServ, said,

“OpenServ is doubling down on people who ship. Joey has shipped at a pace and quality most teams struggle to match.

“Since 2017, Joey has shipped a multitude of [DApps] (decentralized applications), including wallets, block explorers, agent frameworks, indexers, NFT and token contracts, while handling a total revenue of over 50 [million] and a combined volume of 70,000 ETH across marketplaces.

“He’s the execution engine we want driving our blockchain roadmap.”

Kheireddine said,

“I’m joining OpenServ because its versatile and scalable architecture makes agents actually useful in the real world, allowing for endless possibilities.

“My mandate is simple – ship faster, harden the stack and make building on OpenServ the easiest path for teams launching AI-powered apps.”

Kheireddine has led engineering across category-defining Web 3.0 and AI projects.

At Eliza Labs (ElizaOS / AI16z), he worked on the open-source token launchpad ‘auto.fun’ that heavily utilized AI features – experience directly aligned with OpenServ’s agentic runtime and protocol ambitions.

Prior to Eliza, he served as CTO at FLUF World (Non-Fungible Labs) and later as head of engineering at Walker Labs, shipping large-scale consumer experiences and developer tooling under real-world load.

Earlier, he contributed as a blockchain architect with FUSION.

Collectively, his portfolio spans high-throughput services, developer platforms and production-grade releases across multiple chains.
