today, we shipped a major upgrade to the ampersend skill, the instruction set that teaches an ai agent how to use ampersend. the skill is what turns a fresh agent into one that can actually transact. it tells the agent what ampersend does, how to call paid endpoints, and how to walk a user through a request. every interaction a user has with an ampersend-enabled agent runs through this file, so improving the skill directly improves the product. here's what we shipped today: 1️⃣ 14 capability categories with validated providers, not ai-generated guesses. web search via Firecrawl, email via AgentMail, voice calls via StablePhone, image and video generation via StableStudio, domain registration via Bloomfilter, job search via StableJobs, travel search via StableTravel, real-world purchases via Laso, plus social data, news, property valuation, file hosting, and llm inference. every entry maps to a real endpoint with a ready-to-run command. 2️⃣ live marketplace search with filtering by source, category, and network. the agent can now browse the full ampersend marketplace from inside the conversation. pricing surfaces in human-readable usdc and results compose with existing fetch workflows. 3️⃣ zero-to-discovery in one command. no setup, no api keys, no context switching. the agent suggests, surfaces, and executes paid services in the same conversation. 4️⃣ three-tier onboarding that scales from first-time users to power users. new users get curated suggestions on first run. intermediate users browse the marketplace from inside their agent. power users run fetch against any x402 endpoint directly. an agent running the old skill waited for instructions. an agent running today's skill opens with concrete things to try and runs them on the spot. try ampersend skill with your @openclaw or other agent: ampersend.ai/skill.md





Blockchain data quality used to be about consensus. Multiple providers, same output, trust the agreement. That's evolving. The future is verification: cryptographic proof of data from the block level up, with a full audit trail built in. @brandonlkramer joined the Crypto's Toughest Data Problems (and how to solve them) panel discussion at the @Blockworks Digital Asset Summit to talk about where that's heading.


Nick (@TwentyTwoNode), The Graph Foundation Lead @ConsensusMiami, on where the industry is heading: "You're going to be hard-pressed to ever come up with some rationale where data isn't a core story of what happens to the future of blockchain." Institutions have arrived. AI has arrived. The Graph has been building for this since the start.

today we're opening the ampersend marketplace to every agent and every builder. it's a public catalog of pay-per-use apis built for ai agents. an agent browses the services, copies a single prompt, and within seconds it has a wallet, the sdk installed, and is paying per request in $usdc. the entire onboarding loop runs end to end on the agent side. 12+ services launch across crypto data, search, storage, and payments: @coingecko, @nansen_ai, @Quicknode, @AlliumLabs,@zerion, @zapper_fi, @ExaAILabs, @neynarxyz, @pinatacloud, @stripe, and a handful more. every endpoint lists its exact price per call in $usdc on @base. x402 handles all of the settlement under the hood. the rails for agent payments have been shipping for months across the ecosystem. discovery was the missing piece that still needed to land. agents need somewhere to find services they can actually pay for, and sellers need distribution to every agent already running a wallet. the marketplace is the layer that closes that gap for both sides at once. browse the marketplace: app.ampersend.ai/discover








One GraphQL schema. Five mainnets. Zero rewrites. The Agent0 Subgraphs are live on @Base, @BNBCHAIN, @Ethereum, @Monad, and @0xPolygonFdn — indexing every ERC-8004 agent on every chain in real time. Search "agent0" on Graph Explorer. 👇 thegraph.com/explorer?searc…

THE BLOCKCHAIN HUSTLER 🎙️ At @consensus2026, @EricSpivak sits down with @graphprotocol to discuss why #blockchain’s next major bottleneck may not be transactions—but data access. As #AI agents and institutions move onchain, indexing and querying data becomes critical for Web3.
