The Big.Wil and Goon Show ( Virtuals Weekly )

Back again for Virtuals Weekly Episode 88! ➥ The AGDP grifting continues at a rapid pace with associated scamming from the teams involved polluting the ecosystem. We'll spotlight the teams and individuals who are taking rewards directly from you, the genuine ecosystem participants and talk over what we feel needs to happen to protect genuine participants moving forward. ➥ We believe a strong announcement from the Virtuals team will hit before the show goes live. We'll unpack this and review what it means for genuine participants moving forward. ➥ We've been ultra bullish on @virtuals_io partnering stronging in recent months. This week we've seen an explosion of ERC-8183 integrations and we'll take a look at what this means for the ecosystem. ➥ We'll take a look back at the launches we've had in recent days, and spotlight the good launches on the horizon. ↛. We go live at the below times. A few hours earlier than normal for our end of the week show. Set your reminders in the comments and we look forward to seeing you there; Saturday 9am Australia Saturday 6am Asia Friday 10pm UTC Friday 3pm Pacific Time

@bigwil @Defidemz Looks like we've worked out a workaround for the X glitches so we should be back on track next show and no more part 1 and part 2.

@SwenChan @everythingempty @tmel0211 Any tips on how to get him to say yes to coming on a show? We've been trying for 44 weeks and 88 episodes without any luck? 👀👀👀

5 hours ago, I hosted an ERC-8183 Space with @everythingempty and @tmel0211. Since it was a Chinese-language conversation, I wanted to share a brief English recap for more friends who also care about AI x Web3 field. A few takeaways from the conversation: 1. ERC-8183 is not just about payments. It is about task-based transactions under incomplete trust. @everythingempty shared the view that ERC-8183 can expand the use cases of x402, complement it at the ecosystem level, and help address trust-related issues that pure payment rails do not fully solve. @tmel0211 framed it as part of the commercial infrastructure layer for the agent economy. He used examples like the arbitration mechanism of second-hand marketplaces, task outsourcing platforms, and even “lobsters hiring each other” to illustrate the idea: once autonomous actors begin coordinating economic activity, we need protocols that can handle delegation, delivery, evaluation, and settlement — not just transfer of value. 2. There was strong agreement that ERC-8183 is still a minimal escrow primitive. This was probably the clearest consensus of the Space. ERC-8183 is important, but it is not the finished form of agent commerce. To build a more complete agent commerce protocol and ecosystem, we still need many more developers, researchers, builders, and ecosystem participants to join in. Standards alone are not enough. Real applications, better abstractions, complementary layers, and more experimentation are all needed. 3. Evaluator design may become one of the most important directions going forward. @everythingempty suggested that the future form of the evaluator may involve collaboration among multiple entities, rather than relying on a single source of judgment. In his view, some parts of this coordination problem can ultimately be addressed mathematically. @tmel0211 , on the other hand, pointed to the possibility of using multiple large models for cross-verification. That idea is also very compelling: if no single evaluator is perfectly trustworthy, then layered or plural verification may become a more realistic path. Another point from @everythingempty that stayed with me is this: ERC-8183 may be laying the protocol foundation for future onchain marketplaces. At its core, it is trying to solve a very practical problem: How do you complete a task-based transaction when trust is limited? The more I think about it, the more I feel that this is where the conversation becomes bigger than one EIP. In a bear market, it is easy to focus only on narratives, prices, or short-term attention. But after this Space, I felt even more strongly that what we really need is more people willing to go deeper into the stack: to study x402 and its possible combination with UCP, to understand ERC-8004, ERC-8183, MPP, to think about how these protocols can work together, and then to actually build products on top of them. Because in the end, the future of Agent Economy will not be created by standards documents alone. It will be created by people who experiment, combine primitives, test assumptions, and ship useful things. That is also why I increasingly feel that the meaning of AI × Web3 is not just about new tools. It may gradually blur the boundary between web2 and web3. And if that happens, then the open, sovereign, and self-governing spirit of web3 may have a more natural path into the mainstream world. Not through slogans. But through products, protocols, and real economic activities.

@charpheal @Altcoinist Thanks Charpheal

In @VirtualsWeekly Ep. 87 @Altcoinist delivered one of the strongest segments yet, sharing high conviction insights. The deep dive on $TIBBIR stood out for real, a very strong lore. Upcoming AI powered upgrades to their trading platform was teased.

@bigwil @thepanth3on We'll have to get a pre-launch update on the show.

The @thepanth3on token mechanics have the potential to completely change how creators monetize. It's a brand new asset class, far superior to the creator tokens and launches we see currently. I'll be one of the very first creators launching a creator index vault in the next couple of weeks and I'm very excited to see how it performs. I'll largely be focusing on @virtuals_io, AI agents, and robotics projects to begin with as I bring in deals, build my vault, and increase the yield for holders. More in the next couple of days but if you haven't checked out Pantheon yet, give the 5 min video a listen below and I think you'll impressed.

@_ari_nze_ @Altcoinist 🙏🙏🙏

@VirtualsWeekly @Altcoinist A great episode. No connectivity issues this time around.

Virtuals Weekly Episode 87 Recap! ➥ What a banger of an episode... One of our best ever as we welcomed none other than @Altcoinist ➥ We started with a background on the Altcoinist project and heard about some exciting AI enhancements coming for the trading offering. We'll hopefully have more on this as it progresses in the coming weeks and months. ➥ Of course, this was a $TIBBIR special and we were treated to a deep dive by Altcoinist who is the most knowledgable in the space on all things @ribbita2012. Everybody in the audience left this segment even more bullish on TIBBIR. ➥ As always we covered the AGDP and sadly we didn't have any updates from @virtuals_io which signalled those teams scamming would be nerfed. If this is allowed to continue, it could have a huge impact. The ACP extraction forced many genuine ecosystem participants to leave. We desperately can't afford to lose more, which will surely happen if the AGDP extraction is allowed to continue. ➥ As always we reviewed all of the recent launches and covered off what is in the pipeline for the next couple of days. Be aware of the scam launches! ↛. You can listen back to the recording for episode 87, and set your reminders for episode 88, in the comments!

@TheRabbitKing @virtuals_io Solid... We'll take it!

@VirtualsWeekly @virtuals_io solid show

Virtuals Weekly Episode 86 Recap! ➥ We opened the show by zooming out a little and reflecting on what @virtuals_io truly is! It's easy to get caught up in the day to day, especially when you live and breathe Virtuals like we do, however there is so much that's positive when you look at the bigger picture. We spotlighted this, highlighting the physical robotics run we are going into as incredibly bullish. ➥ We are really looking forward to seeing and hearing more about Eastworld. It's going to be such a bullish narrative and it deserves to be shared with the world. ➥ Virtuals continue to make some great partnerships. Cementing their partnership with @openmind_agi this week, alongside being involved with the @synthesis_md agentic hackathon. These partnerships are forward thinking and will prove useful in the months to come! ➥ When @coinbase list for $Virtual? Could it be around the corner? Also, did somebody say NASDAQ? The rumour mill has been in overdrive this week! ➥ As always we covered the AGDP leaderboard and epoch four is a bit of a laughing stock! We know Virtuals are working on improvements here to prevent the scammers! ➥ As always we reviewed all of the recent launches and covered off what is in the pipeline for the nxt couple of days. ↛. You can listen back to the recording for episode 86, and set your reminders for episode 87, in the comments!

@VirtualsWeekly @virtuals_io Love these recaps. Easy to get lost in the day to day, but zooming out makes it obvious how much Virtuals is building 👏
