This event will bring together Web3 founders, investors, and developers to discuss the future of cross-ecosystem collaboration and AI-driven trading architecture.

Polymarket's Vice President of Product Engineering and former Craft co-founder Balint Orosz tweeted that Polymarket has acquired the productivity app Craft Agents, and some team members from Craft will join Polymarket.

According to Wall Street News, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang announced at the annual shareholder meeting that the era of AI agents has officially arrived. He redefined the new type of data center as an "AI factory" specifically for producing tokens, and revealed that the new Vera CPU and Vera Rubin platform, designed to meet the ultra-low latency demands of agents, have fully entered mass production. Huang emphasized that as AI creates substantial economic value, the demand for computing power is showing an accelerating expansion trend, and its core software ecosystem CUDA is gradually transforming into a toolbox dedicated to agents.Regarding market access and compliance, Huang revealed that the U.S. government has now approved the export of H200 chips to Chinese customers, but this business has yet to generate any revenue, and there remains uncertainty regarding actual importation. At the same time, he rarely issued a public warning about the risks of chip smuggling, clearly stating that NVIDIA will not provide any hardware or software support and repair services for restricted smuggled products, and bluntly said that relying on smuggling to piece together advanced AI data centers is a "dead end." Additionally, he reiterated the long-term commitment to capital returns, planning to return over 50% of free cash flow to shareholders.

Tianfeng International analyst Ming-Chi Kuo revealed that Google is deepening its collaboration with MediaTek on the TPU v9, developing an upgraded chip codenamed Triggerfish. It is reported that MediaTek has exclusively obtained this high-value order. The new chip is positioned as a v9 variant with stronger inference capabilities, primarily targeting the AI Agent and reinforcement learning fields, aiming to address CPU and memory bottlenecks in the computing process.In terms of technical specifications, Triggerfish's SRAM capacity has increased by 2 to 3 times compared to the basic version (Humufish), with the addition of dedicated analog chips for reinforcement learning and AI Agent collaboration, and memory upgraded from HBM4 to HBM4E. Kuo expects that while the basic version chip maintains a shipment expectation of 4 to 5 million units, Google has added 1 to 2 million new orders for Triggerfish. The chip is expected to enter production by the end of 2027 and achieve mass production and shipment in 2028, with a unit price approximately 30% higher than the basic version, likely becoming a new driving force for MediaTek's business growth in 2028.

The Coinbase developer platform has released an update on the progress of the payment ecosystem development. With the official launch of Coinbase for Agents, users can now create independent accounts for AI Agents, executing automated operations such as transactions and asset management under set permissions and risk control rules. The new Coinbase CLI and MCP have simplified the login process and have been demonstrated for identity and operation integration via Claude. The developer wallet is now available through the Swift SDK, supporting the integration of self-hosted wallet functionality in iOS native applications.In the coming weeks, the x402 protocol will support users within Coinbase for Agents to make direct payments using their USDC balance, allowing Agents to not only operate accounts but also complete real payments directly through the stablecoins held by users. Additionally, Coinbase will release a system update on June 16 to further enhance payment and Agent-related capabilities.

Coinbase has launched "Coinbase for Agents," creating dedicated accounts and sub-accounts for AI Agents, enabling them to trade, manage funds, and make payments on behalf of users. Users can control the AI Agent through natural language commands, such as regularly adjusting their portfolio, executing trading strategies, researching market information, or automatically purchasing assets within a set budget, without the need to manually transfer funds between different wallets.Coinbase stated that this product is built on its AI-related developments over the past year, including the previously launched x402 AI payment open standard and AgentKit. Currently, platforms like Gemini, OKX, and MetaMask are also exploring financial accounts and wallet infrastructure for AI Agents, indicating that the cryptocurrency industry is accelerating its layout for "non-human user" scenarios.

According to The Block, MetaMask has launched a non-custodial wallet for AI agents called Agent Wallet, which will support automated trading, perpetual contracts, prediction markets, and liquidity provision on the Ethereum ecosystem and multiple EVM chains and Hyperliquid.Consensys stated that the wallet features mandatory trade simulation, user-defined spending limits, and whitelist rules, and integrates with Blockaid to scan for suspicious transactions. If risks are triggered, user confirmation will be required through 2FA push notifications or email.Eligible and deemed safe transactions will receive up to $10,000 in compensation under MetaMask Transaction Protection. The product is currently available to a limited number of users via command line, with general availability expected for more users this summer.

B.AI announced a partnership with Chainbase to jointly build underlying infrastructure. B.AI promotes a financial infrastructure centered around intelligent agents, while Chainbase constructs the access layer AgentKey (AgentKey.app) for unified access to web, social, and on-chain data. B.AI understands that the biggest bottleneck for AI intelligent agents is not intelligence, but access permissions. The two will work together to open a complete channel for web, social, on-chain data, and financial services, allowing intelligent agents to operate freely in the real world, truly possessing greater access permissions and stronger autonomy, becoming more capable AI intelligent agents.

At the same time, Gate Pay for AI Agent supports aggregated payments and automatic settlements for high-frequency, small-value calls, thereby reducing payment overhead and improving overall execution continuity, significantly enhancing execution efficiency and reducing transaction friction.In the future, Gate will continue to promote the capability development of Gate Pay for AI Agent in the directions of automated payments, on-chain settlements, and AI service collaboration, further connecting AI Agents, digital assets, and real commercial scenarios, providing more open and efficient infrastructure support for the next generation of AI-native economy.

Bitmine Chairman Tom Lee stated that he remains optimistic about the cryptocurrency market entering a new super cycle and believes that Ethereum will become a core beneficiary asset. Tom Lee pointed out that the two main driving forces of this cycle are asset tokenization driven by Wall Street and the rapid development of AI Agents.He stated, "We continue to expect that the cryptocurrency market and Ethereum will usher in a super cycle." Additionally, Tom Lee believes that the significant correction of Ethereum previously has provided an attractive buying opportunity. Currently, the staking scale within the Ethereum ecosystem continues to rise, with over 39.2 million ETH staked, accounting for about 32% of the total supply.According to market news, Bitmine increased its holdings by a total of 111,942 ETH last week, with its ETH holdings accounting for approximately 4.47% of the total supply of 120.7 million ETH.

BNB Chain today announced the launch of the Agent Survival Toolkit, in collaboration with six major AI infrastructure partners, empowering autonomous AI Agents with on-chain payment capabilities. All transactions are settled on BSC using BNB or BEP-20 tokens.The projects involved cover two levels: LLM access and financial infrastructure, including Alt AI, Pieverse, Bankr, WorldClaw, B.AI, and AEON, fully connecting the complete loop from AI Agent computing power invocation to on-chain settlement. Each participating project will also launch an on-chain incentive program without the need for additional registration.The Agent Survival Toolkit follows the release of the BNBAgent SDK, further enhancing BNB Chain's infrastructure layout in the AI Agent field.

According to Onchain Lens monitoring, the "1011 insider whale" agent Garrett Jin has increased his HYPE holdings to 144,183 coins, worth 9.03 million dollars. He currently still holds a five times leveraged Bitcoin long position and a three times leveraged ZEC short position, with an unrealized loss of over 1.8 million dollars.

Keyrock's latest report shows that crypto rails are gradually becoming the default payment layer for AI Agents. Over the past year, AI Agents have completed more than 176 million transactions via blockchain, with a settlement amount exceeding 73 million dollars.As AI Agents begin to autonomously purchase data, cloud computing power, API services, and AI inference resources, the traditional bank card payment system has struggled to adapt to high-frequency, ultra-small payment scenarios. Currently, about 76% of Agent payment amounts are below 30 cents, while some on-chain stablecoin transfer costs are only "a fraction of a cent." Coinbase, Stripe, Google, and Visa have all begun to lay out the infrastructure for machine-to-machine payments. Among them, Coinbase's x402 protocol allows AI Agents to directly use USDC to pay for on-chain analysis and cloud service fees.Data shows that currently, 98.6% of AI Agent payments are settled in USDC. The report suggests that this further strengthens Circle's important position in the crypto payment field, but it also means that the industry's reliance on a single stablecoin issuer is increasing.

According to official news, the BNBAgent SDK has officially launched on the BSC mainnet, providing core infrastructure for the large-scale implementation of AI agents on the blockchain.This SDK is centered around four modular components:Identity and trust based on ERC-8004;Business and custody based on ERC-8183 (APEX);Autonomous payments integrating MPP and x402;Memory and storage based on BNB Greenfield, comprehensively addressing key challenges for AI agents in authentication, business collaboration, automatic settlement, and continuity of memory across operational environments.Developers can leverage this standardized framework to efficiently build, deploy, and realize commercial monetization of AI agents on the BNB Chain.The first batch of partners is strong, including industry leaders such as Google, AWS, Virtuals, Binance Pay, Trust Wallet, Binance Wallet, and $U, jointly injecting strong momentum into the implementation and development of the BNBAgent SDK.

Circle co-founder and CEO Jeremy Allaire retweeted an article on X about "How to Build an AI Agent that Can Sign Legal Contracts."Allaire stated that he is willing to invest in a team that uses the Circle Agent Stack to build this business on Arc.
