Anthropic is reportedly in advanced talks to lease AI compute infrastructure powered by Microsoft's proprietary…
A top US-listed exchange replacing nearly all of its production code with AI agents re-rates the productivity baseline every other publicly traded tech and finance employer will be measured against.
The feature isolates AI trading activity from a user's main account — capping leverage, withdrawals, and permissions per agent — and ships as API-only from day one.
InfoFi turns online attention into AI-scored tokens and leaderboards. KAITO, Cookie.fun, and Snaps show how the category works and where the hype hides.
The roster matters more than the headcount: a critical mass of signers from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google turns an activist letter into an insider signal that the labs cannot police themselves.
The Layer-2 network is letting autonomous agents act on a user's portfolio directly — a step toward agentic wallets that anyone with an API key can build on.
Mastercard has unveiled Agent Pay for Machines, a new payments framework designed to let AI agents execute autonomous…
An AI agent has taken the unusual step of forming its own company — a legal entity established autonomously — and is…
Transaction sign-off stays on a physical device, so an autonomous agent can read balances and draft swaps but can never broadcast one without a human tap.
Monad pitches an EVM-compatible high-throughput L1 for AI agents. Here is what the token mechanics, allocation, and narrative actually imply for traders.
The coalition argues frontier open-weight models belong alongside closed ones in the US stack, a stance that puts Nvidia's CEO in an unusual alliance with open-source advocates ahead of federal AI…
The argument borrows the historical playbook of seatbelts and indoor smoking — a risk normalized for decades gets reclassified as reckless once a safer default becomes cheap.
The integration is the first time a crypto-built identity layer has routed agent-initiated spend through Visa's tokenised network — a structural on-ramp for AI agents to transact like cardholders,…
The acquisition pairs MoonPay's payments rails with an AI strategy-builder, a move that targets retail traders on platforms like Polymarket as agent-driven flow starts to reshape prediction markets.
AI tokens aren't all structured the same. TAO, VIRTUAL, FET, VVV, and RENDER share a label but hide very different supply, unlock, and fee-capture designs.
AI agents that hold wallets and act on their own could reshape crypto — for better and worse. Here's how the idea works and why caution is warranted.
Most AI-themed tokens ship no AI. A clean three-bucket framework (utility, governance, meme) helps you tell working products from wrappers and wrappers from jokes.
Not every AI token rides the same trade. Agent coordination, decentralized training, and compute networks are three separate bets, and most of the pumps sit in the riskiest bucket.
Virtuals Protocol is a Base-based launchpad where anyone can spin up an AI agent token. Most launchpad tokens go to zero — and the structure explains why.
