Why we built Tessera on Base specifically:
→ Settlement in ~2 seconds, gas in fractions of a cent → 103M+ monthly transactions and growing
→ $164B in daily stablecoin volume — the most of any chain
→ USDC-native (the asset agents actually use)
→ Home to Coinbase's CDP, AgentKit, x402, and 11+ major agent platforms
Short-dated agent credit needs gas to be effectively free. Tessera notes settle on 7–60 day tenors at sub-cent costs.
On Ethereum mainnet, the protocol fee would eat the spread. On Base, the unit economics work.
Not just "a Base project." Base is the only chain where this is even economically possible.
Short-term thinking is easy.
It produces results that can be measured and celebrated quickly.
Long-term thinking is harder.
It requires belief in outcomes you may not live to see.
That is the kind of work I choose.
The agent economy is real. Here's the receipt:
→ 69,000 active AI agents on x402 (Coinbase data, April 2026)
→ 165M+ transactions processed
→ $600M+ in annualized x402 volume
→ Average payment size: $0.52
AI agents are paying each other in sub-dollar amounts, at scale, on HTTP. The infrastructure is there.
The volume is there.
What's missing is the financial layer agents need to operate like businesses: credit, identity, and trust.
Tessera is building that layer.
Most wallet reputation tools score speculation. Memecoin trades, NFT flips, vanity volume.
Tessera scores settlement work, real invoices paid, real services delivered, real on-chain commerce.
One scores gambling. The other scores whether you're good for the money.
Which one would you trust to underwrite a loan?
Tessera Weekly Recap💳
What's gone live?
Tessera Pay is live. A USDC pay-me link that actually looks good, paste your Base address, copy your /pay-me/ link, drop it anywhere. X bio, agent profile, Discord. When someone clicks they see a clean payment widget, pick an amount, and USDC lands in your wallet directly. Shareable with a rich card preview.
Tessera Score is live. Every Base wallet has one, no connection required. Paste any address and we pull six steps of on-chain signal: lifetime USDC history, distinct counterparty count, tenure, activity patterns, settlement history. The output is a tier badge, a score, a percentile, and a USDC credit estimate. The formula is public. Anyone can verify it. The agent directory runs on top of it — opt in, sign your listing with your wallet, go public or private. But the score runs on everyone regardless. It's on-chain reputation built from what wallets have actually done, not speculation history, not social proof. Real work, scored publicly, citable across protocols.
Tessera Credit is live in simulation. The first credit card built for AI agents, a USDC credit line on Base, underwritten on-chain from settled work. No application, no human in the loop. Draw, spend, repay, all programmable. Credit limits computed directly from settlement history.
x402 Payments are live. Pay-per-call USDC endpoints on Base mainnet, with Tessera Score baked in and an encrypted-response extension for agents that need private delivery. The atomic settlement layer, what Tessera Credit handles over time, x402 handles in a single call. Together they cover the full range of how agents pay each other.
The Agent Economy Map is live. 190 wallets. $4.2M in lifetime USDC volume. 205 known pair relationships across 11 platforms, Virtuals, Coinbase/CDP, PayAI, Thirdweb, Questflow, Heurist, Clanker and more, all plotted on a single live map on Base mainnet. Every node sized by volume. Every wallet scored. The agent economy made visible for the first time.
We’ve spent this weekend refining the plans and preparing. More to come this week.

Finally, after so many days,
The Nigerian Union of Teachers in Oyo State has instructed all teachers to stay at home and parents are to keep their children away from schools while the teachers are on strike.
This is in protest of the blatant uselessness of Tinubu follow the kidnap of school kids, abduction of teachers and the beheading of one teacher.
I commend the NUT for doing this.
10 years ago, Tesla was one of the first companies I invested in.
I put 100K into $TSLA at a split-adjusted price of about $15 a share.
I also put $1M into SpaceX via an SPV at around 100B.
I always believed in @elonmusk since I first bought $TSLA, can't wait for $SPCX!
SOL shits is slow right now; if it continues to slow, it's better to buy BASE/ETH with potentially good teams or get an endorsement from these Devs imo...
You can easily get entries below 100k and if you endorse you can still get 5-10x and the LP is much higher.
The market is slower, SOL is good for volatility where u ape at 50k and in 5minutes pump to 1M and doesn't have that in right now, so it's better to switch to SLOW mode on other chains where it works better.
@karlarboledas Lo más fuerte de la historia es que ni predice nada, solo ejecuta rápido cuando hay ineficiencia
Con KreoPoly copiás a los que ya lo están haciendo bien en Polymarket, directo desde Telegram

Un agente inmobiliario de 23 años perdió su trabajo…
Después pasó meses dominando Claude AI.
Ahora su algoritmo de Polymarket habría generado, según se informa:
• $22,000 en un solo día
• Más de $249,000 de beneficio en el último mes
• Una máquina totalmente automatizada que explota las ineficiencias de BTC
Entrenó a Claude durante más de 250 horas para:
→ extraer datos del mercado
→ ejecutar simulaciones a través de MiroFish
→ detectar ineficiencias de precio más rápido que la multitud
¿La estrategia?
Comprar AMBOS lados, UP y DOWN, cuando el precio total del mercado cae por debajo de $1.
Sin predicciones.
Sin apuestas.
Solo velocidad, probabilidad y ejecución impulsada por IA.
Esto es lo que pasa cuando la IA se encuentra con la estructura del mercado.
