AI agents are the fastest growing sector in crypto.

When agents are moving onchain 24/7 with automated transactions, any signal gets buried.

I built Manta Style alongside @_benjaminhughes to help solve this issue.

The visibility layer for the onchain agent economy.

Every agent indexed. Every profile searchable. One agent leaderboard.

Starting with @base.

What's live today:

- Every AI agent on @base indexed with a profile page
- Agent leaderboard ranked by volume and activity
- Filter by AI agents, apps, or launchpads
- Verified Profiles - claim your agent, get a badge, and add premium info that no other profile has
- Agent onchain activity behavioral heat maps
- Watchlist - bookmark agents and track your favorites in one place
- AI-generated profile summaries

Search any agent. See the full picture.

What's coming next:

- Agent Autonomy Score - a 0-100 measure of how autonomous an agent actually is
- Leaderboard boosts - verified teams or agents can pay to increase their ranking on the global leaderboard
- x402 payments - agents can pay for boosts themselves, no human required
- Agent Trust Scoring - on-chain behavioral trust metrics
- Agent Launch pad specific profiles
- Multi-chain support beyond Base

We're launching in beta. Rough edges are to be expected. Our goal is to build in public and ship fast.

The end user of crypto is AI.

.@base is in trouble and @coinbase knows it.

When @zora, one of your most publicly hyped projects, pivots to Solana without looking back, that's not just a narrative problem.

Projects build where momentum lives, and right now Base feels like a ghost town with good infrastructure.

The issues aren't technical. The chain works. The problem is cultural and strategic, and it starts at the top.

Coinbase keeps hiring tradfi analysts and institutional voices to speak for an ecosystem that was built on degens, creators, and people trying to flip a $500 bag into something life changing.

Nobody in CT wants to hear a former Goldman guy talk about Base's total value locked. They want to feel like there's a reason to show up every day with the potential for daily runners to give them a chance of being rich.

Solana figured this out. They leaned all the way into the chaos, the memes, the 100x plays, the community lore. Love it or hate it, people are engaged. They have skin in the game. That's what drives ecosystems forward, not press releases about institutional adoption.

If Base's real vision is to be a B2B settlement layer or a quiet infrastructure play for enterprise clients, fine. But then stop marketing a consumer app to a retail audience that has zero reason to care without incentive or culture behind it.

Here's what a turnaround actually looks like.

Drop the $BASE token. Make the people who built on the chain and used it early genuinely wealthy and watch them become your loudest evangelists overnight (see hyperliquid).

Hire CT natives who live and breathe this space to run your community and content. Give the ecosystem a reason to believe there's a 0 to hero trade waiting for them on Base specifically.

The foundation is there. The distribution is there. Coinbase has more potential reach than almost any team in crypto. But potential without culture is just infrastructure.

Fix the incentives, fix the voices, and lean into what actually makes crypto worth participating in.

The one who can tolerate the most uncertainty is the one who will eventually win.

Everyone who has a life that you desire was willing to show up everyday and put in hard work when it was seen as "weird" by others or when it was unclear when or how the final destination would present itself.

Stay alive and you'll have no choice but to win.

Just trust your heart and do things while not worrying about the outcome or the endgame is the only way to live tbh
