According to Jinshi reports, Alibaba Cloud has officially launched the enterprise-level intelligent agent construction platform ------ JVS Crew. JVS Crew is designed with the concept of "being integrated," allowing enterprises to quickly embed it into existing apps, SaaS services, or smart hardware, gaining production-level AIAgent construction capabilities with zero barriers.80% of platform-level heavy lifting, such as multi-tenant isolation, security compliance, cost accounting, and channel access, is unified by JVS Crew. With built-in atomic APIs and SDKs, intelligent agent capabilities can be rapidly developed on existing products, achieving the leap from "individual shrimp farming" to "mass production of lobsters." Currently, JVS Crew has been launched on the Alibaba Cloud official website, where enterprise users and developers can learn about product details and apply for testing.

PicWe's self-developed new generation wallet product has completed internal testing and entered public testing. PicWe Wallet expands the "hardware wallet" from a dedicated device to everyday terminal capabilities, allowing mobile phones, computers, and security keys to be used directly as wallets.By generating and storing keys within the device, users do not need mnemonic phrases or manual management of private keys; critical operations are completed locally without server storage, reducing the usage threshold and risk from the source.With this design, users can perform on-chain operations just like using a regular application. At the same time, the wallet also supports providing account capabilities for automated programs (such as AI agents) under certain rules, enabling more flexible on-chain interaction methods.The public testing version has supported multi-chain asset management, asset exchange, and using stablecoins to pay transaction fees, bringing users closer to the experience of "seamless blockchain usage."In a broader ecological layout, PicWe is building integrated infrastructure around RWA (Real World Assets) and intelligent applications, covering core aspects such as asset issuance, circulation, and settlement, to serve enterprises in achieving efficiency and cost goals in scenarios like cross-border settlement, asset digitization, and supply chain collaboration.

The 0G Foundation announced a partnership with Alibaba Cloud to launch on-chain access to the Qianwen large model for AI agents.This move shifts artificial intelligence infrastructure from centralized, API-based systems to programmable, tokenized access specifically designed for autonomous agents. Through this collaboration, 0G allows developers to directly embed access to Qianwen into their infrastructure via a token-based mechanism. This eliminates the need for traditional account management and enables on-demand programmable access to AI computation. Agents running on 0G can query the Qianwen large model to generate responses, process information, or execute tasks in real-time.Michael Heinrich, CEO and co-founder of 0G Labs, stated, "From a macro perspective, inference runs on Qianwen, and verification runs on 0G—this builds a more complete computational and trust foundation for autonomous AI systems. The integration of 0G with Alibaba Cloud's Qianwen marks a milestone, achieving the fusion of top-tier intelligence and trusted infrastructure."

Huobi HTX global advisor Sun Yuchen made a significant appearance at the HTX Genesis Hackathon opening ceremony in Hong Kong in an online format, sharing his latest insights on the application prospects of AI Agent technology in the Web3 field and the future development direction of the industry. He pointed out that AI Agent will replace traditional interaction methods and become the core driving force of the next phase of the Web3 ecosystem.He explained that past Web3 applications often came with extremely high learning thresholds and complex on-chain interactions, while the introduction of AI Agent will drive decentralized applications (DApps) to evolve from "manual operation" to "intention-driven" based on natural language. This means that AI Agents can autonomously understand user needs, automatically plan paths, and complete complex on-chain settlements such as cross-chain transactions. This paradigm shift towards intelligence and autonomy will not only greatly unleash on-chain productivity but also become a new breakthrough point to break the bottleneck of Web3 user growth and lead the industry toward true mass adoption.It is reported that the HTX Genesis Hackathon is hosted by HTX DAO and B.AI, co-hosted by TinTinLand and OpenCity, attracting numerous developer communities, investment institutions, project parties, trading platforms, and public chain ecosystems to participate.

According to The Block, the x402 Foundation, incubated by Coinbase, has announced the launch of the unified platform Agent.market, aimed at providing an "app store"-like service entry for AI robots.The platform is built on the x402 protocol and helps users and robots access hundreds of tools and services. The x402 protocol is named after the unused HTTP 402 "Payment Required" status code, allowing websites, APIs, and AI robots to request and receive instant micropayments through blockchain and traditional payment channels. The protocol is managed as an open standard by the x402 Foundation under the Linux Foundation and has the support of over 20 organizations and crypto companies, including Cloudflare, Stripe, AWS, Google, Visa, Base, Circle, and the Solana Foundation.When Agent.market goes live, it will cover seven major categories including reasoning, data, media, search, social, infrastructure, and trading, with service providers including OpenAI and Venice (reasoning); Bloomberg and CoinGecko (data); LinkedIn, X, and AgentMail (social); AWS Lambda, QuickNode, and Alechemy (infrastructure); as well as Bankr and Coinbase RAT (trading). Providers can join the marketplace without permission.Erik Reppel, the creator of the x402 protocol, stated that there are currently about 69,000 active agent robots on the protocol, which have completed over 165 million transactions with a transaction volume of 50 million dollars. He pointed out that agent commerce based on x402 is reshaping the customer acquisition activation costs for businesses, as robots can now access services at a very low setup cost without needing API keys.

According to Decrypt, Coinbase is testing AI agents integrated with Slack and email to provide high-level feedback to employees as virtual colleagues. The first systems are designed based on the decision-making styles of co-founder Fred Ehrsam and former CTO Balaji Srinivasan, with the "Fred" agent assisting in refining documents, strategies, and concepts, while the "Balaji" agent focuses on inspiring innovation and new perspectives.Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong stated that the next step will make it easier for employees to create more agent employees, and in the future, agents may not necessarily be digital avatars of real people, adding that the number of AI agents at the company may soon exceed that of human employees.

ChainCatcher reported live that Lennix Lai, the Global Chief Business Officer of OKX, delivered a keynote speech at the 2026 Hong Kong Web3 Carnival. He pointed out that AI Agents are changing the way users interact with wallets and blockchains. OKX is building a wallet operating system from scratch that serves not only human users but also AI Agents: On-chain OS.This system is built on the existing capabilities of the OKX wallet, which includes 1.2 billion API calls per day, over $300 million in daily trading volume, support for more than 60 chains, and aggregation of 500 DEXs. Users can issue commands in natural language, such as "automatically exchange to USDC when ETH drops below 2000," and the Agent will automatically track prices, compare quotes from different DEXs, route the optimal path, and execute the trade upon human confirmation.He emphasized that Agents also need to trade and pay each other, thus requiring an efficient and low-cost microtransaction settlement layer. OKX's Layer 2 network, X Layer, plays this role with zero gas fees and instant finality, and it supports the X402 payment protocol and on-chain Agent identity registration. He stated that future financial infrastructure will no longer serve only top professionals; an individual working with five different Agents can achieve results comparable to those of large institutional investment teams, which is the most significant meaning of AI in the cryptocurrency industry.

ChainCatcher reported live that Fan Wenzhong, Executive Director of the Chinese Financial Society and former Chairman of Beijing Financial Holdings Group, delivered a keynote speech at the 2026 Hong Kong Web3 Carnival. He pointed out that we are currently at a historical turning point similar to the transition from pawnshops to modern banking, where AI is an advanced productive force in the physical world, and Web3 represents a new type of production relationship in the digital world. The integration of the two will give rise to a Decentralized Agent Economy (DAE).He analyzed that AI Agents have execution capabilities but lack independent identity, accounts, and trust mechanisms, while Web3 addresses these pain points through smart contracts, on-chain identities, and programmable currencies; conversely, AI Agents significantly lower the barriers to using Web3. He proposed that DAE has four major characteristics: agent sovereignty and 24/7 operation, high-frequency atomic exchanges, a collaboration mechanism based on technological trust rather than moral or legal frameworks, and the organizational evolution from companies to DAOs and then to Decentralized AI Companies (DACs).He warned that this transformation will impact the labor market, with white-collar workers being replaced before blue-collar workers. AI quantitative funds have already achieved returns far exceeding those of retail investors, and he suggested that the government proactively advance social security reforms. Finally, he recommended that Hong Kong develop a self-controllable high-performance public chain, pilot limited digital persona registrations, attract Web3+AI composite talents, establish a digital finance industry fund, and promote collaborative innovation between the Hong Kong dollar stablecoin and digital renminbi.

At the "Crypto 2026: From Cryptocurrency to Smart Economy" themed forum held in Hong Kong, guests including KiteAI's Asia Pacific head Laughing, Sentient's Asia Pacific head Anita, Brevis content director Nic Tang, Mentis product head Jerry, and Predict.fun's Asia Pacific BD head Ah Huang Ricardo engaged in a roundtable discussion on the theme "AI × Crypto --- The Foundation of the Next Generation Digital Economy."Regarding whether the outbreak of open-source AI Agents (such as "raising lobsters") is a short-term sentiment or a long-term trend, Laughing believes this marks a paradigm shift of AI from "conversational" to "executive," signaling the beginning of a long-term trend. However, Agents lack a physical identity, making it difficult for merchants to trust their trading behavior, and issues of data leakage and uncontrollability remain obstacles that must be overcome for scaling. Jerry pointed out, based on his own usage experience, that current Agents face security risks such as memory fuzziness, token consumption in dead loops, and accidental file deletion. Although newly emerged Agents have improvements, they still have shortcomings. Ah Huang Ricardo stated that behind the short-term sentiment is real user demand, but truly reproducible profitable trading Agents are still very rare, and there is a long way to go.Addressing core bottlenecks such as trust, security, and verifiability, Nic Tang emphasized that the current execution process of Agents is like a black box, where users cannot verify whether their decisions are executed as promised. Zero-knowledge proof technology can mathematically prove the source of an Agent's output and compliance with behavior, while not exposing privacy. Anita added that Sentient is committed to building an open and collaborative AI agent network, promoting the deep integration of AI and blockchain in identity, data, and incentive layers, providing foundational support for the next generation digital economy.Regarding the application scenarios that are likely to scale first, the guests generally believe that the programming field is relatively mature, and Agents in prediction markets perform better than humans in specific tracks due to their rationality and lack of emotions. In the short term, they are optimistic about API Marketplace and cross-platform consumer shopping Agents, while in the medium term, they are optimistic about content creation AI (such as AI influencers). Agent-to-Agent interaction and the Agent/Skill Marketplace are seen as important future trends.

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.
