Hey @Teknium @dillonrolnick @NousResearch we have built the world's most advanced crypto plugin for Hermes Agent. It's all open source and open sandbox. Our goal is for users to be able to instruct the agent to take any sequence of actions in natural language and trust that the agent will execute flawlessly. We were blocked by @steipete and had our first GitHub account mass reported by OpenClaw maintainers and their friends, which almost resulted in us losing months of work. After that, we switched to Hermes Agent and haven't looked back since. The architecture is not only cleaner but far safer for a tool that handles real money. We understand that you are getting brigaded by Pumpfun scammer right now and might be put off by anything involving crypto, but we can guarantee that our aim is not to ride on your prestige. We have been working on this vision for 6 months now, and simply want to provide your users with the vast array of crypto tools they already want. You have already won all of the crypto users with a better project and friendlier community — our goal is to keep them safe by building bulletproof tooling so they don't need to push their own and get rekt. We have already partnered with @MetaMask @Consensys to build cutting edge ERC-7702, 7710, and 7715 guardrails for the agent, which take natural language input and translate them into onchain permissions. We would love to build in conjunction alongside you or to hear your feedback and requests, but we understand if you cannot be affiliated with crypto related projects. Either way we will continue building out the most advanced crypto capabilities for Hermes Agent that the world has ever seen. Thank you! 🪽

let me tell you what just happened. hermes agent just flipped the entire market and hit #1 globally on openrouter across ALL ai apps. not coding agents. not cli tools. ALL of them. 271 billion tokens. openclaw sitting at #2 watching from below. i have been telling you for months. drop the bloat. drop the typescript that phones home. drop the corporate wrappers pretending to be open source. and every single time i said it, someone in my replies told me i was wrong. that openclaw was untouchable. that hermes was too small. too niche. too early. look at the board now anon. this didn't happen because of marketing. this happened because tek and nearly 1000 contributors built something that actually works. open source in and out. hermes agent beat openclaw. beat kilo code. beat claude code. on pure usage. not hype. not funding rounds. not product hunt launches. raw token volume from real builders doing real work. if you're still running openclaw bloat after today, that's not loyalty. that's denial. the market just spoke. hermes agent is the standard now. and this is just the beginning. we're not slowing down.
