Who runs TokenOS
Two men appear on the record. One is the public face, and Washington State has dealt with him before. The other lists himself as the technology and security chief, and an account from his earlier project ended up holding TokenOS money.
Tyler R. Gonty, also known as Tyler Ray and Ty Gonty
Tyler R. Gonty lives in Kingston, in Kitsap County, Washington. His X account, @DeFi_Tyler, described him as "Founder: TokenOS.ai" when it was captured in July 2026.
He goes by three names. On social media he is Tyler Ray. Those are his first and middle names, and Washington's court index lists him as "Gonty, Tyler Ray." At his earlier company, an adult film business, he was Ty Gonty, and its press posts in 2008 call him "HellHouse CEO Ty Gonty."
He is listed as a Managing Partner of a crypto marketing agency, DeFiMarketing. The agency's team page credits him with "over 20 years of experience in marketing and brand management." The agency publishes a Seattle office address at 601 Union Street.
Washington State has dealt with him before. In 2012 its securities regulator entered a final order against Tyler Gonty over money he had raised from investors for adult films and websites. The state found the offering had broken its securities law. The order records what the investors got for it: "Several T&H investors have received little or no return on their investment." The details are on The 2012 order.
Two of the civil cases against him are also on the public record.
- January 2012. A landlord in Snohomish County sued to evict him, three weeks after the state's order. In February it ended with an agreed judgment and a court order returning the property to the landlord.
- September 2021. A bank won a judgment against him in Kitsap County for about $15,000. He did not respond to the suit, so the judgment was entered by default. As of September 19, 2026, the court lists it as still active. In November 2025 it was assigned to a debt buyer.
Neither case involves an investor. They are here for one reason: they are public court records about the person now asking customers for money.
Christopher Kuntz
Christopher Kuntz lives in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada. His LinkedIn profile carries LinkedIn's identity-verification badge, and on it he gives his title at TokenOS.ai as "Chief Technology & Information Security Officer," from March 2025 to the present.
The job, in his own words: he leads "technology, infrastructure, and security for TokenOS.ai" and owns "settlement/payment-flow review." He builds the "Rust/Anchor smart contracts" on Solana and handles "investor-facing technical/security communication." That is the money, the code and the investors.
His profile also shows a Managing Partner role at DeFiMarketing, from April 2021 to July 2022. The agency's team page still shows him beside Tyler Ray. It notes his "12 years with Canadian Pacific Railway."
Kuntz also runs a personal site, cpk.solutions. When it was captured on September 6, 2026, its About page said: "No conflicts of interest. No products to sell." TokenOS was not named anywhere on it. By October 22, 2026, the page had changed. It now lists "Chief Information Security Officer, TokenOS.ai" from 2025 to the present, and the "no conflicts" line is gone.
The account that links Kuntz's earlier project to TokenOS money
SatoshiChain is on the profile too, with Kuntz as founding partner. The entry reads: "Implemented and audited Solidity smart contracts for staking, bridging, and system-level functionality." A press release dated March 9, 2023 announced SatoshiChain's launch for June 1, 2023, and quotes "Christopher Kuntz, a co-founder of SatoshiChain." It names no one else.
On June 1, 2023, the SatoshiChain bridge contract went live on Ethereum. Each user crossing the bridge paid a small fee, and the contract sent 115 of those fees to one account. They were the first money that account ever received. Three years later the same account was holding and trading TokenOS customer money. This site calls it the reserve account. The ledger shows what it did:
- It received about $1.5 million that had been moved off Solana from the TokenOS treasury side.
- It moved about $1.6 million into a leveraged trading account, and about $1.2 million back out.
- It sent money back to the TokenOS treasury three times in 2026.
- It funded an account that sold ETH for cash on a peer-to-peer exchange.
- In early September 2026 it paid about $8,800 to the TokenOS weekly payment account. It paid $40,000 to one depositor.
Two people, one Telegram account
TokenOS speaks in its Telegram group through one official account, but more than one person posts through it. The account has said so itself.
Full disclosure, that wasn't me. Its the Canadian who has to deal with jeets everywhere. He is very offended.
"Jeets" is slang for traders who sell at the first chance.
But yes, I'm the Canadian.
I can only answer what I have been told as I do all of the security aspects, not the daily banking/business. - Security Fellow.
CISO sets the security rules, the rest of us listen.
Just so you know, its not a shared profile, btw. It's just a Telegram group setting, for admins to speak as the official account.
The September 7 post is signed "Security Fellow." The last one matters most: each post comes from one admin's own Telegram account, so Telegram's records can show which person wrote which message.
