AI agents in finance sound powerful but the harder question is how much control institutions are willing to give them.
At the DFNS Institutional Stage, Douglas Hsu (@0xDougie) from CMT Digital (@CMT_Digital), Josh Lee (@equanimist) from ShardLab (@0xShardLab), and David Cai (@SingularityMemo) from Proxima Investments (@proxima_xyz) joined moderator Frederick Tan (@Biskitcoin) from The Block (@TheBlockCo) for the panel:
“Agentic AI in Financial Services: Promise vs Control”
A discussion on how agentic AI could reshape financial services, from investment workflows and automation to governance, risk, and the controls institutions need before adoption can scale.
Rallying into WebX Japan at Rally Lounge with @AvaxTeam1 and @pudgypenguins. Supported by @BTSE_Official.
Pickleball, golf simulator sessions, good food, builders, and community vibes.
Exactly the kind of side event we needed. 🎾⛳
With number of projects in the Ai space, im very much looking forward to this panel discussion at WebX in Tokyo with the Liberman brothers from @gonka_ai , @jtwald co-founder of @zynga and founder of Playable Intelligence, and JT from 0g labs.

Looking forward to speaking about the next generation of self-custody solutions at @teamz_inc Teamz Summit with @TrustWallet@Ledger Exodus, Hypernative and Tangem.
See you at Teamz Summit 26!
I built Smuke for the builders, the lean teams, and the creators who want to lead the conversation without being chained to a dashboard.
We are officially opening the waitlist today.
Be the first to deploy your agentic squad:

Social media is a full-time job within a full-time job.
Most founders/creators spend 10+ hours a week just trying to:
Find trends 🔍
Match their voice 🎙️
Write the posts ✍️
Hit "publish" 🚀
I got tired of the grind. So I built a solution.
Meet Smuke 🧵👇
When they combine? You get SMUKE-MAX. 🤖✨
A fully autonomous, agentic social media bot that moves at the speed of the internet so you don't have to.
From "Signal" to "Sent" in seconds.
4. The Herald 📣
The "Last Mile" of social media is where most brands fail. They have the content, but they miss the moment.
Herald solves this Deployment Gap.
He is the autonomous arm that amplifies your content across all your social media platforms simultaneously.
3. The Creator 🎨
He takes the strategy and builds full campaigns.
A creative copywriting and content generation engine, that remains relevant to your narratives.
Matching your specific voice, brand guidelines, and visual style. It looks like you, because it is you.
2. The Interpreter 🧠
The brains of the operation.
Cipher takes your brand’s unique context and matches it to the trend.
No more "copy-paste" content. He ensures your narrative stays front and center.
1. The Signaller 🛰️
He’s the look out of our system.
He ingests real-time news, Google Analytics, and social feeds 24/7.
When a signal breaks through the noise, Scanner catches it first.
The problem? By the time you spot a trend, the window is already closing.
You’re either too slow or too generic.
I wanted an "Agentic" system, not just a tool that suggests things, but a squad of AI agents that actually do the work.
Introducing the Smuke Squad:
