Morpho has launched the Morpho Agents Beta version. Morpho Agents provide agents with a machine-readable knowledge layer of protocols, native tools, and simulation infrastructure, enabling them to read, simulate, and write to the Morpho protocol.The main products include User Agent (Morpho CLI and MCP server, providing over 30 AI Agents with full read, simulate, and write access to the Morpho protocol on Ethereum and Base, compatible with wallet infrastructures like Coinbase, Safe, Fireblocks); Builder Agent (protocol knowledge base that helps coding Agents quickly understand protocol models, contract addresses, edge cases, and code examples for efficient integration).

According to Cointelegraph, Visa has launched the "Intelligent Commerce Connect" service, which supports AI agents to complete purchase payments on behalf of consumers in commercial scenarios worldwide.

Claude announced the launch of Managed Agents, a feature that helps developers quickly build and deploy large-scale AI agents on the Claude platform, now entering the public testing phase. By combining performance-optimized AI agent runtimes with infrastructure suitable for production environments, AI agents can go from prototype to launch in just a few days, increasing the speed of building and deploying agents by 10 times.It provides managed infrastructure that automatically handles complex tasks such as sandboxing, error recovery, memory, and checkpoints, allowing users to simply define tasks, tools, and guardrails.

The decentralized exchange aggregator Jupiter announced the launch of the Token Verification API (VRFD), allowing Launchpads, DEXs, and AI agents to directly integrate verification functions into the token creation process, achieving programmatic verification.The API uses a three-step process: developers create and sign a transaction to burn 1,000 JUP on Solana, then submit the verification request along with the token metadata update. This transaction does not require Gas fees, and developers do not need to hold SOL to pay transaction fees; they only need to hold at least 1,000 JUP in their wallet to submit. Jupiter is positioning VRFD as the standard infrastructure for all projects on Solana.

According to Decrypt, blockchain infrastructure company Biconomy has proposed a new Ethereum standard ERC-8211, introducing a "smart batching" mechanism that allows AI agents to complete multi-step DeFi operations in a single transaction, with each step dynamically referencing the output of the previous step at execution, addressing the issue of unpredictable output amounts due to price fluctuations or changes in transaction fees.This standard operates on top of the existing Ethereum infrastructure without the need to modify the core protocol or perform a hard fork, allowing developers to implement complex transaction processes directly in TypeScript. Barnabé Monnot, a research scientist at the Ethereum Foundation, stated that ERC-8211 aligns with the foundation's strategic priority of "improving user experience."

According to official news, the Solana Foundation announced the launch of Solana Agent Skills, providing pre-built functional modules that can be integrated into AI tools, allowing users to interact with the Solana blockchain through simple calls.The official skills cover error handling, security checks, confidential transfers, and version compatibility, among other content. In addition, over 60 community skills have been launched, covering areas such as DeFi, payments, and infrastructure, with participants including Jupiter Exchange, Raydium, Helius, dflow, and Metaplex.

Bitget officially launched the GetClaw trading feature and is the first in the world to offer independent trading accounts for AI Agents, advancing the role of AI in trading scenarios from "assistive tools" to capable "autonomous traders."Currently, GetClaw supports users in initiating trading commands within the Telegram chat environment. Supported features include spot trading, USDT margin contract trading, limit orders, position closing, as well as various trading methods such as scheduled task triggers and immediate execution.At the same time, users can prepare trading funds for GetClaw sub-accounts through asset transfer functions and directly query orders, positions, and account information in the conversation, forming a closed-loop trading process from command initiation to execution feedback.In terms of application scenarios, GetClaw covers various real trading needs such as 24/7 market monitoring, technical signal-driven strategy execution, trend following, range oscillation and grid execution, news event response, on-chain signal capture, take profit and stop loss, and dynamic capital scheduling.In terms of security, Bitget adopts an independent sub-account mechanism, using the design principles of "independent isolation, permission convergence, and controllable risk" to limit the trading behavior of Agents to operate within independent account boundaries. While releasing the trading capabilities of the agents, it ensures they remain within clear, trustworthy, and manageable boundaries.

Eigen Labs has released the first Beta version of AgentKit, a toolkit for developers to build AI agents that can hold assets, make payments, manage identities, and operate autonomously online.The initial application scenarios of AgentKit focus on "autonomous media agents," which can generate content (text, images, audio, video), manage their own social presence, and run continuously. In the coming weeks, Eigen Labs will expand AgentKit's integration with popular social platforms, add new agent management templates, and launch an easy-to-use user interface. Future versions of AgentKit will also introduce native support for standards such as x402 and ERC-8004.

The Solana Foundation stated that it will position the Solana network as the core infrastructure of the emerging "agentic internet," where economic activities are initiated and executed by AI systems rather than humans.Vibhu Norby, Chief Product Officer of the Solana Foundation, stated at the New York Digital Assets Summit that AI is not a single vertical industry but a platform transformation that affects various sectors, including crypto. The strategic core of Solana is payment infrastructure, and the network has processed approximately 15 million on-chain payments initiated by agents, primarily for machine-to-machine commercial transactions. The programmatic nature of crypto payments is key to attracting agents, and stablecoins will become the default method for paying for any computational resources.Vibhu Norby believes this will fundamentally reshape internet business models, making micropayments and pay-per-use possible, which traditional payment channels cannot support. The Solana Foundation emphasizes that its high-performance design has advantages in this new paradigm: "Agents are calm, precise machines... If you ask agents how to use crypto payments, Solana often ranks as the preferred choice."Additionally, advancements in AI technology have lowered the development threshold, and Solana developers are directly building tools for AI systems, including machine-readable "skill" files and AI-first development platforms. Norby anticipates that in the future, user interactions with crypto will default to agents, with 95% to 99% of transactions initiated by large language models (LLMs).

According to the Israel Times, 26-year-old Israeli "Iron Dome" defense system reservist Raz Cohen is accused of leaking sensitive military secrets to Iranian agents and receiving approximately $1,000 in cryptocurrency as payment. He could face life imprisonment or the death penalty.Investigations show that over several months, he disclosed operational details of the "Iron Dome" air defense system, locations of air force bases, and a list of Israeli officials to Iranian intelligence personnel.
