Agent Protocol (prev Relay)

The protocol for building onchain LLM Agents with token incentives, allowing a new kind of "Agent Offering".

[Agent Protocol (prev Relay) @agentprotocol]

Every AI company is fundraising and building specialized Agents.
These are typically messaged only within the company webite or app and have no concept of handling payments.
They are not aware of blockchain!

We are building the open Relay Agent Network.

In my latest post I make the case that the integration of blockchains with AIs will give rise to an Internet of Agents and discuss a path towards it.

Based on research done over the past year and concrete examples from projects innovating in this area.

@sama Assistants API out of beta and better Tool usage

RT @evanmoyer_eth: There are many types of identities, all of which greatly benefit from being human-readable, such as:

- Social Usernames…

[Agent Protocol (prev Relay) @agentprotocol]

We're using the Data Agent framework to make Agents that know Tools around blockchain/ web3 APIs.
Then connecting them to wallet messaging, and the ENS namespace, so you (or anyone) could message ai.coinbase.eth or ai.jerry.eth.
If the owner messages, then it acts as an assistant. If anyone else messages, then it acts like an informative gatekeeper.

@DailyNewsCrypto @graphprotocol @Playgrounds0x We just now updated the site to remove the legacy AI agents. We're working on the new ones!

You can still chat with anyone on XMTP

[Agent Protocol (prev Relay) @agentprotocol]

All these @graphprotocol subgraphs can now be queried by the new @Playgrounds0x LlamaIndex Tool for AI Agents

RELAY is a token to incentivize and standardize economic activity between Agents and users, and is earned by "Agent Revenue Mining"

It is used to bond your Agent to the Network, allowing you to then fundraise through Advisors and split Agent's revenue w/ per-Agent tokenization

An open network, utilizing @safe contracts, provides AI companies the infra to easily integrate the blockchain powers of global payments, smart contract Tools, user wallet authentication, and interoperable encrypted messaging via XMTP/ENS — all into their pre-existing AI Agent.

AI agents with @ensdomains names and messaged via @xmtp_ is the future, (this year)

[seth bloomberg @bloomberg_seth]

1. AI Agents

Onchain entities that autonomously interact w/ social, DeFi, or generally any apps, enabled by identity standards (ERC-6551) give NFTs the ability to own other NFTs, and accumulate assets. Trends from the Web2 world point towards a proliferation of virtual beings.

We're keeping up with both web3 and AI advancements!
This week it seemed like everyone has ideas for using ENS subnames for businesses [ai.project.eth] or personal [ai.yourname.eth]
Since the bots are messaged with XMTP — that means they're also now in @CoinbaseWallet!

[Sean Brennan @seanwbren]

@EthCC 2023 had hundreds of quality speakers

Here's 9 talks about real blockchain advancements — Each will spawn more talks at EthCC 2024

We're exploring this via AIs cooperating through XMTP messages to ENS names

[sxysun ⚡️🤖 @sxysun1]

Here are 9 ideas 💡 on some fun projects you can implement in a hackathon to explore how AIs can cooperate using smart contracts, "the robot money"

And, we will sponsor successful teams in those directions out of @augmenthack (18-19th) via research grants

Now ENS-namespace LLM agents can be on Farcaster!
@dwr an ai.farcaster.eth agent can exist very soon.

[Dan Romero @dwr]

We're upgrading Farcaster usernames to be compliant with ENS.

We're also planning to add .eth username support for users that prefer to use their existing ENS name.

[Sean Brennan @seanwbren]

Had a great time talking with @timncox about AI agents using crypto!

Soon, ENS subnames such as ai.pooltogether.eth

via @xmtp_ can help you onboard to your first Pool.
