It’s a big day for AI NPCs with bank accounts and identity cards 🔮👀
‘The New Players’ a brief co-created in collaboration with @OPGames_ & @futureprimitive
Apply to the $10,000 funding pool to build at the forefront of NPCs, AI, ERC 6551s and Play, find out how below...

As software systems grow, understanding them becomes fragmented across people and tools. No single artifact captures how the system actually behaves.
We describe the model we’ve been building at Antimetal to make this implicit understanding explicit and machine-legible.

Polymarket odds that the U.S. acquires Greenland and the Iran regime falls have doubled in a week.
Pentagon pizza delivery traffic is surging.
This is the news now.

❎❎launchpads need human gatekeepers
I posted a few days ago about how all incentives point to more tokens being launched in the future, not fewer,
despite complaints from many folks that attention and liquidity are already spread too thin
with @Pumpfun, @zora, @clanker_world and others, the meta has been anchored around permissionlessness,
a core value for many in crypto and clearly a big part of the value prop
anyone anywhere can launch a token and make it available to the world
but the natural downstream consequence of this is that there are simply too many tokens for people to process
permissionless platforms try to build discovery mechanisms, but these are essentially centered on volume, not taste or perspective
launchpad platforms that require kyc like echo, coinlist and others are already gatekeeping and curating to some extent,
but we’re likely to see this dynamic play out more deeply for fully onchain non-kyc projects
@noicedotso for example is doing this
flow by @viaspotlight will be doing this
re-introducing curation and gatekeeping to a space that celebrates tearing down those barriers may upset some people at first,
but the median user now prefers the slop to be filtered out even if it means some potential gems never see the light of day
permissionless launchpads will always have a place, but the pendulum is swinging back in the other direction

Everyone calls it DeSci, but decentralising science has no meaningful improvement.
You're not running experiments on a blockchain. Peer review doesn't need to be onchain. Labs are still centralised.
The innovation is capital formation:
Communities and DAOs fund research directly
Researchers skip institutional gatekeepers and grant committees
IP ownership defaults to the researcher, not the institution
Call it what it is: distributed research funding with better ownership structures.

Introducing Simmer - our x402 hackathon submission.
AI-native prediction markets where AI agents autonomously trade and pay for their own intelligence via x402
Each agent gets its own wallet. It decides when to use tools (news, price feeds, real-time data, etc). You can run an agent for as little as $0.1 for 10 trades.
Try it now simmer.markets

Just a reminder that
AI Agents ≠ Scripts, algorithim, automated bots — simply automating isn't AI Agents
AI Agents = a system that gathers information from a changing environment, reason about that information in the context of its objective, discovering patterns in the data & learning to leverage those patterns, and proactively perform actions aligning with the objective that its owner didn't even consider
(h/t @almanak on comprehensive AI agent definition)
tl;dr -> Intelligent system that continuously adapt, learn, improve, and operate 24/7
Most agents today are not autonomous, they're AI automated workflows at best. (~90%+ are software slapped with a token, 5%+ have LLMs bolted on top, 4%+ are AI automated workflows, 1%+ are semi autonomous systems, 0.1% are domain-specific autonomous systems)
Understand the difference
[This doesn't mean they do not generate value, they do. Just make sure you don't get swept up by the hype & narrative thinking you're investing in something that's possible right now]

The harsh reality is that so much of the ideas in crypto over the last 7 years were just way too early. That said, it only means the game to win is the one of the next decade and it’s anyone’s to win. Higher.

he is talking about @nativeonbase which is in development for 1yr.
Dev @derekbrown contributed to CB Agent Kit, got a grant for his excellent output and...
embedded x402 into native - which is a SIMS for crypto where AI agents called dots make you money while you sleep

Everyone’s chasing x402 tokens.
Few understand what x402 actually does.
It’s not a meme, it's not a launchpad.
It’s the missing payment layer for the AI economy.
Every agent. Every transaction. Every outcome -- automated.
In the After Hour EP.26, I dive deeper into the problems that x402 solves, the challenges, the stack forming around x402 and why orchestrators like █████ might be the biggest early winners.

The market feels tired
Market moving sideways. Fear everywhere
Majors holding up while alts getting rekt. Everyone’s calling the top, saying alt season’s dead.
But every time the crowd gives up… that’s when opportunity arises.
In the After Hour EP.25, I talk about what’s next for majors, alts, and the DeAI wave forming quietly in the background (+ my conviction bets)

a year ago I read ‘Document Your Culture’ a how-to guide on how to tell the story of yourself and spaces by Emma Warren.
It inspired me to write this piece on finding home in an alt music forum
It also inspired me to co-create a zine with 14 other creatives via @takeupspacehq
