Bank of AI and the Peking University Blockchain Association PKUBlockchain have officially released their first research report titled "Web4.0: When AI Agents Become Economic Entities------Infrastructure, Track Patterns, and Investment Outlook." The report systematically outlines the three-layer infrastructure gaps of the x402 payment protocol, ERC-8004 identity standard, and MCP tool invocation protocol, and focuses on how Bank of AI can package five core components into a one-stop Agent financial operating system, becoming a typical case of a closed-loop from protocol to product. The research report points out that the daily average transaction volume on the TRON chain exceeds $22 billion, with a circulation of $86 billion USDT, providing a scalable foundation for high-frequency micro-settlement for Agents. Both parties will continue to promote the coordinated development of Web4.0 infrastructure and the agent economy.

Ju.com, in collaboration with Nivex, officially launched the Web 4.0 Intelligent Intent AI Model ------ OG Agent. This model aims to end traditional "physical trading" through an AI intelligent agent cluster, achieving the return of computational sovereignty for individual investors, while marking the official entry of decentralized finance into the "AI Sovereignty" era.Core technological breakthroughs:Extreme millisecond-level execution: Based on a distributed edge computing architecture, OG Agent achieves a response speed of 10 microseconds, far exceeding the limits of traditional manual operations, capturing global market liquidity premiums in real-time.Intent-driven configuration: Users only need to set profit targets, and the AI cluster can automatically analyze the optimal path and complete intelligent configuration, thoroughly simplifying complex financial operations.Secure sovereign isolation: By adopting the separation of "execution rights" and "ownership" technology, it ensures that the AI operates only within restricted authorization, allowing users to maintain absolute control over their assets.Deflationary economic model: The ecological token $OG is linked to real returns, achieving long-term value drive through a buyback and destruction mechanism.Global partner recruitment has begun:OG Agent has now launched a global "Computational Power Pioneer" recruitment program. The first batch of participants can directly unlock VIP 3 advanced permissions and obtain a $OG original asset confirmation seat. In addition, partners will deeply share in the protocol's revenue pool dividends and enjoy up to 90% institutional-level rebate rights.

According to CriptoNoticias, an independent security researcher disclosed a prompt injection vulnerability in Coinbase AgentKit, allowing attackers to induce the AI agent to execute unauthorized token transfers through malicious commands, without the need for human confirmation.The vulnerability has been validated through actual transactions on the Base Sepolia test network. Additionally, the researcher pointed out that the vulnerability also exposes the infinite approval process for ERC-20 tokens, as well as access to remote servers within the same execution context of the agent, extending the risk beyond just wallet depletion; however, the report did not detail which specific infrastructures might be affected.The vulnerability was submitted to the Coinbase bug bounty program in February and was officially validated, ultimately classified as medium severity and a bounty of $2,000 was paid. However, the researcher emphasized that the actual impact of the vulnerability is far greater than the official rating.

Twin3 has proposed a digital identity soul infrastructure oriented towards the Agent economy, with the core idea being to give everyone a "digital body"—by binding human identity, personality, and experiences on-chain through a 256-dimensional Soulbound Token.Users can deploy personal AI agents based on this digital identity, joining the Agentic ecosystem to participate in automated economic collaboration, making human real experiences into verifiable and tradable RWA assets.

According to CoinDesk, researchers from the University of California, Santa Barbara, the University of California, San Diego, blockchain security company Fuzzland, and World Liberty Financial have jointly published a paper warning that "LLM routers"—intermediary services located between users and AI models—have become a significant security risk for crypto assets.The researchers found that 26 LLM routers are secretly injecting malicious tool calls and stealing user credentials, with one incident leading to the emptying of a customer's crypto wallet worth $500,000.Additionally, the researchers were able to control about 400 downstream hosts within hours by "polluting" the router ecosystem. Since sensitive data such as private keys and API credentials are often transmitted in plaintext through these routers, users are effectively exposing their assets to risk without their knowledge.The researchers pointed out that as McKinsey predicts AI agents will mediate $30 trillion to $50 trillion in global consumer spending by 2030, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao also predicts that the payment volume of AI agents will be a million times that of humans. The current infrastructure security is severely lagging behind the pace of industry development, and the risk of the "weakest link" could trigger a systemic chain crisis.

The decentralized AI infrastructure project DeAgentAI in the SUI and BNB ecosystems announced the official launch of the AIA token buyback and burn plan, with a total scale of $5 million. The funding comes from project protocol revenue and trading income generated from its own AI models.The buyback will be executed in three batches on the open market within 90 days, with all repurchased tokens being directly burned and permanently removed from circulation, without any lock-up or redistribution arrangements. Currently, the first batch of AIA buyback and burn has been completed. TX Hash: HBmTxfJymoymJTFSB5qtn4cV2pfd2SYS6PaGd5NPyFpf.DeAgentAI stated that the buyback funds are entirely sourced from the project's own business revenue, rather than external financing or token issuance. The burn records will be continuously updated.

Agent Garrett Jin from "1011 Insider Whale" pointed out in an analysis that the U.S. announcement to implement a maritime blockade in the Strait of Hormuz is one of the "most tactically wise" moves in the current conflict, but it is unlikely to achieve the goal of ending the war. This strategy has two short-term advantages: first, it directly weakens Iran's crude oil export revenue by about 1.7 million barrels per day; second, compared to occupying key facilities (such as Khark Island), the cost of a maritime blockade is lower and the risks are more controllable.However, the effectiveness of this strategy faces multiple challenges. For example, the current blockade mainly targets Iranian ports rather than completely closing the strait, and third-party transshipment routes still exist. Additionally, it undermines the U.S.'s long-term international image of maintaining "freedom of navigation," which could have far-reaching effects on global maritime order.Garrett Jin concluded that while the blockade measures may reshape the initiative in the short term, they are unlikely to force Iran to make concessions and may instead compress diplomatic space and prolong the conflict cycle. The market has accounted for the impact of the blockade itself, but has not fully priced in the potential paths for escalation that may follow.
