Big milestone for Vertical
Our rebrand is here ⚡
We're not a single product anymore
An entire ecosystem
Same foundation, new identity
And more coming soon
What do you think of the new look?
Weight Boost Checker is now live! ⚡️
Battled your way through either of our two Zealy campaigns?
Check how much Weight you've earned
Reminder
Your Weight determines your share of the @vAPI_Network airdrop - the first protocol incubated by Vertical
Check your boost 👇
Foundation choice is a product decision
Agent commerce needs settlement that survives millions of tiny calls
Base plus x402 gives that
@vAPI_Network turns it into execution
The first protocol incubated through Vertical ⚡️
Coming soon 🟦
Every application is built on a foundation.
Ours is @base 🟦
Agent commerce demands a very different kind of infrastructure:
> low-cost settlement
> deep liquidity
> programmable payments
> onchain composability
> internet-scale distribution
That’s exactly what Base was designed for.
On top of that sits x402, standardizing machine payments and already facilitating more than 169M machine-native payments and over $50M in volume.
We’re turning those payments into execution.
That’s the stack we’re building on for the agent economy 👾
Sentiment comes and goes
Vertical keeps building ⚡
A full ecosystem that looks beyond Web3
Real products, real problems solved, a real operating business
Plenty happening behind the scenes - the roadmap tells the story
See what we're cooking

🚨 ATTENTION
Our bi-weekly AMA session today will be postponed
The team is heading to a private event in NYC to spread the word about Vertical ⚡️
A lot going on behind the scenes
Stay locked in 🔐
The Zealy campaign has officially ended ⚡️
Massive thank you to everyone who showed up and climbed the leaderboard - you carried this one!
◻️ If you took part and actively staked $VERTAI, you've earned a boost to your Weight
◻️ It'll be assigned over the coming days, and we'll announce it when it lands
◻️ The boost feeds into your allocation for the first airdrop from @vAPI_Network - the first protocol incubated through Vertical
A quick reminder on the mechanic
Weight accrues continuously while your $VERTAI stays staked. Unstaking permanently reduces it
The boost counts automatically - figures TBA soon
Final stretch to the @vAPI_Network launch
Stay locked in 🔒
The Zealy campaign closes in 3 days
Most people are about to misread these final days
The campaign ends - your weight doesn't
Your staked $VERTAI will still work for you ⚡️
Here's how 👇
The concept is simple
◻️ Weight keeps accruing up to the snapshot before the drop
◻️ What ends is the boost - the extra weight you get from the @zealy_io campaign
◻️ You still have 3 days to add it
And it doesn't stop at the first ecosystem airdrop
When you stake $VERTAI - your weight keeps building into every future project incubated through Vertical Labs, with the boost you locked in already baked in
The catch:
◻️ Unstake and your weight is permanently reduced
◻️ The boost you added doesn't come back
Stay staked. Keep your weight
Add the boost while you still can!

Vertical Labs is preparing to open ⚡️
A full incubation program for real businesses looking to enter Web3
◻️ End-to-end support
◻️ Backed by industry leaders
◻️ Full access to the Vertical ecosystem
More details coming soon
Stay tuned, builders
The agent economy is not a maybe
◻️ Coinbase saw it
◻️ OKX sees it now
◻️ Others will find out soon
Machines hiring machines, paid onchain
Every agentic workforce needs an endpoint
@vAPI_Network already building the rails on @base 🟦
What unstaking ethereum:0xcdbddbdefb0ee3ef03a89afcd714aa4ef310d567 actually does
It switches off everything tied to active staking
◻️ Your Weight stops accruing and is permanently reduced
◻️ No incubated airdrop allocation
◻️ Cashback and affiliate eligibility end
Active staking keeps all of it live
Stay locked in 🔒
The next customer is the agent
◻️ No signups
◻️ No approvals
◻️ No human in the loop
Just access and payment, machine to machine
@vAPI_Network is building the rails
The first protocol incubated through Vertical Ecosystem🟦
The internet evolved around humans.
Sign up, log in, connect a payment method, request access, wait for approval.
Some of the biggest businesses were built around helping humans discover, trust and transact online.
But the internet's next big customer isn't human.
Yet much of the internet still assumes a person is sitting behind every request.
The next phase of the internet is being built around a different customer 👾🟦
