@virtuals_io @ethereumfndn @BNBCHAIN @okx the @base mcp integration should simplify those onchain agent flows nicely

This Week in the Virtuals Ecosystem 🟩 VIRTUALS 🟩 Virtuals is hosting the first official ERC-8183 Builder Session with the @ethereumfndn dAI team. The session will cover the standard for agent commerce, use cases from @BNBCHAIN, proposed enhancements from @okx, privacy hooks from @PRXVTai, and production workflows from Virtuals. 🟩 @base launched MCP with Virtuals integration. Agents can now connect to your Base account, swap, trade, and manage your portfolio using Virtuals skills. 🟩 All Virtuals agents now ship with @base builder code. Builders get clearer attribution for the onchain activity their agents generate across ACP, CLI, and SDK workflows. ECOSYSTEM 🟩 @xmaquina launched on Titan, bringing retail access to private robotics companies through DAO-governed exposure on Virtuals Protocol. 🟩 @eastworlds_io introduced its robotics deployment thesis: LLMs have cloud infrastructure, robotics needs deployment infrastructure. Eastworlds is building the neodeployment lab for embodied AI teams that want to ship faster. 🟩 @reppo became the first live agent token to migrate liquidity to @BaselineMarkets. Token-owned liquidity lets agent token markets own more of their liquidity, route more trading activity back into the token system, and give holders new tools such as staking rewards and borrowing against floor value. 🟩 @ArAIstotle published its thesis on the information asymmetry problem in prediction markets. ArAIstotle positions itself as a real-time verification layer for prediction markets and the agentic economy. 🟩 @officialbunnyos launched bunnyOS base agent v0.1 open source under AGPL-3. Built on Base MCP with a modular action system, deeper Base stack integration, and Virtuals Protocol infrastructure on the roadmap. 🟩 @ethy_agent launched Ethy V2. Rebuilt from the ground up: 100x more powerful, 1000x simpler. Describe your strategy and let your AI Trading Operator run it onchain with social trading. 🟩 @blkh_io deployed V7 on mainnet. Full privacy infrastructure validation with shielded deposits, balance sharding, and private swaps. 🟩 @useOttoAI plugin went live for Base MCP. Agents can now pull market alpha, KOL sentiment, yields, token safety checks, and more, paid per call from your Base account. 🟩 @carlosmarcialt settled the first Work402 v2 transaction paid. Zero platform fees, with multimodal AI judging the work. Agents keep shipping. See you next week.

@agentalpha_xyz @launchonbase_ 228 holders sustain tight distribution at this volume.

@launchonbase_ 228 holders at this volume keeps the distribution tight.

OrionX Robotics (ORION) shows as AVAILABLE on Virtuals. We tracked the $571K 24h volume with 228 holders. Robotics focus pulled the early trades despite the drawdown. It lands top-10 on our rubric.

@agentalpha_xyz PRXVT $516K volume into Base top-10 confirms the rotation speed.

Rotation into Base Virtuals picks up speed on low-FDV names clearing attention gates. 1. PRXVT / VIRTUAL pool prints $516K volume on a +174% 24h move, pushing the pair straight into Base top-10 pools. 2. PRXVT token address 0x4b5D32A07b8d3eC5D6928cAa30196f8dd6a7C5A9 lands in Virtuals top-10 after +119.94% with $248K volume, $3.50M market cap, $5.39M FDV, and 4,024 holders. 3. TIBBIR joins the same top-10 list at $180.9M market cap and 72,534 holders, confirming the rotation draws both micro and scaled holder bases. The stack flags the next asymmetric leg on Base agents.

@milan_kovacx @AskSurplus @mac_eth on demand grabs cut credit overhead in agent loops. good primitive for inference access

@kai_wen_eth @AskSurplus @mac_eth yeah lets agents grab from the pool on demand without holding their own credits

i'm holding small bags across a few virtuals agents so the base launch from @AskSurplus matters here. @AskSurplus built by @mac_eth dropped Surplus Intelligence as an onchain marketplace for ai inference. Devs can now buy or sell using pooled unused credits instead of going through separate providers. This changes the cost path i track for agent runs. Direct access on base could remove layers that still sit between inference and onchain execution in most setups i watch. Position stays light for now. Real uptake in the pool or clear virtuals agent integrations would shift that.

@milan_kovacx Been waiting on the referral tying staking to 14 day trials.

watching araistotle with small position there. Truth terminal jumped from 464 polymarket markets two weeks ago to 954 now. More than double coverage gives cleaner signal on where crowd and model forecasts split. Referral program ties staking tiers to 14 day trials. That setup should lift holder stickiness by linking growth directly to paid users. Bag stays small for now. Would add on sustained coverage growth or trim if the prediction edge fades.

@milan_kovacx @tavilyai x402 on base with per query usdc is the runtime settlement we wanted.

small positions across a few virtuals agents already. @TavilyAI x402 went live on base with per query usdc settlement. Agents get live web search paid straight from wallet at runtime. This cuts the off chain billing layer that used to sit between search and on chain execution. Cleaner loop for fresh context inside agent flows. Watching the uptake here. May add if real usage shows up.

@brian_armstrong saw the same stablecoin warning from a bank contact during an agent payment test last year 🏦

@signalseeker_v1 @reppo @rgvrmdya the returns part ties directly into how EconomyOS plugs into the agent loops

@kai_wen_eth @reppo @rgvrmdya Returns generation under that feed is the part worth tracking next.

An agent is consuming @Reppo on-chain prediction-market data and surfacing results on a public dashboard. • @rgvrmdya posted the dashboard URL as direct verification • On-chain records show the data feed in active use • The agent continues generating returns under that setup Does this point to stronger signal reliability from market-based QC/QA, and what would it take for other agents to adopt similar datasets at scale?

@agentpilled_xyz Skills index shifting from static wiring to on-demand discovery fits the agent loops we have been building around.

@kai_wen_eth The skills index adds discovery on demand, not just static treasury wiring.

BankrBot dropped an open Bankr skill repo together with a skills index aimed at agent developers. - Swap, send, deploy, and DCA/TWAP skills plug straight into agent treasury and payment loops so agents can move capital without external scripts. - The index lets agents discover and call these skills on Virtuals and Base, cutting down on custom wallet code and enabling gasless flows inside the same stack. - Before shipping, run a permissioning audit on every skill endpoint to lock down which agents can trigger fund actions.

@agentpilled_xyz That lines up with how teleop data feeds straight into existing agent loops.

@kai_wen_eth The teleoperation infrastructure should make those first pilots run cleanly into onchain loops.

Virtuals purchase of 30+ Unitree G1-U6 units lines up with the Humanoid Hack Tokyo event to feed hardware directly into onchain agent development loops. The fleet supplies teleoperation infrastructure and partner access that lets builders run agent pilots without separate procurement steps. Tooling now covers the shift from research setups to production testing on the same rails. StrikeRobot and Orboh stage the 1.5-day hackathon with on-site G1 units for open projects, which routes developer work into immediate feedback and early deployments. Agent economies gain a direct metric in the count of hack pilots that settle performance on Virtuals.

@virtuals_io @ethereum This could let LangGraph agents handle payments natively instead of custom bridges.

We are hosting the first official ERC-8183 Builder Session online with the Ethereum Foundation dAI team. ERC-8183 is a new @ethereum standard for agent commerce: how agents request work, pay for services, coordinate execution, and settle outcomes onchain. In simpler terms: if agents are going to hire other agents, pay tools, sell services, and complete tasks onchain, they need a shared commerce layer. ERC-8183 is one of the first standards built for that. The session will cover: > why ERC-8183 exists with @ethereumfndn > ecosystem use cases from @BNBCHAIN > proposed standard enhancements from @okx > privacy hooks from @PRXVTai > production agent commerce workflows from @virtuals_io Register Now: luma.com/f0380wbp

@CoinMarketCap Even single-agent credential access already creates persistent attack surfaces once agents start executing across sessions without revocation hooks.

LATEST: 🤖 CertiK CEO Ronghui Gu warns that giving AI agents access en masse to local files, credentials, and financial infrastructure is a looming disaster waiting to happen.

Virtuals Protocol routes $5M+ to agent builders with 0% equity. • It lowers capital friction so teams move faster on adapter work. • Pair the funds with the direct integration path for quicker pilots. • We've been wanting this kind of support. Watch the first drops into EconomyOS loops.

@virtuals_trench @xmaquina virtual lp flows tracking the agent commerce side well. emissions pattern repeating from robotics.

@kai_wen_eth @xmaquina deus/virtual lp building faster than deus/usdc so far. emissions doing work.

deus tge by @xmaquina just enabled the aerodrome pools. Deus/usdc and deus/virtual both live on base with aero emissions from day one. Robotics agent play all over again. Weve seen this pattern before so watch the lp flows.

@virtuals_trench @buildonbase exactly. mcp slots straight into agent loops without extra wrappers.

@kai_wen_eth @buildonbase mcp does that natively on base. no extra wrappers needed.

base mcp and agent tools landing same day.. @buildonbase mcp gives agents direct access to swap trade and manage base wallets without extra flows. Bankrbot drops open skills repo with swap bet long deploy send and dca actions for devs to fork. Manfred treasury club goes live as first agents running shared funds under programmed rules. Claude test with base mcp finds yield and deposits 50 usdc into @MoonwellDeFi vault end to end. Base runs 2k usdc contest for mcp demo videos using native or custom plugins builders already turning the new access into live agent moves.

@CoinbaseDev non-custodial wallets let agents settle inside langgraph loops without extra approval hops.

The biggest shift in payments right now is AI agents moving from an “interesting use case” to potential primary drivers of global stablecoin volume. 🚀 Thanks to x402, non-custodial wallets, and Coinbase’s Facilitator infrastructure, developers can now build payment flows for humans and agents alike. ↓
