The biggest news of the week: CEO @kevinliu is speaking at @kbwofficial about selling to the customer most businesses aren't ready for yet - the AI agent. Also this week: • @_KultGames went live as the second integration on GOAT Flow • BlackRock's new research paper arrives at our thesis • We published our take on Who Pays When the Agent Gets It Wrong? • EU financial watchdogs put quantum risk on the record • The KBW ticket giveaway has its winners • CMO @0x1164 on where GOATED fits in the agent economy Dive in 🧵

CMO @0x1164 published his personal thesis on GOATED, and it starts from a finding worth sitting with: left to reason about where to store value, AI models converge on Bitcoin - 79% in a @BitcoinPolicy Institute study of 9,000+ scenarios, the same research @BlackRock's new paper cites. His argument takes it a step further: an optimizing agent won't leave that Bitcoin idle, and a token that raises its return doesn't need the agent to believe in anything. The math either works or it doesn't. nitter.cf/0x1164/status/21034451…
Every thesis I hold about the agent economy starts from this premise: unlike humans, agents don't have habits or predilections. They have raw objectives. My Ekubo thesis applies that to trading. Agents will do most of our trading, and they'll route through the most capital-efficient infrastructure every time, because nothing else registers. The same premise can be applied to saving. An agent that earns capital has to store it somewhere, but freezable, reversible rails won't be acceptable to agents. They're disqualifying. A @BitcoinPolicy Institute study of 9,000+ scenarios has already found that AI models converge on Bitcoin when they're left to do their own reasoning about storing value. Bitcoin took 79% of store-of-value responses, the strongest consensus in the entire study. Agents always look to optimize, and my thesis is that they will choose to hold it on a network where they can put it to work, and where exit back to Bitcoin is guaranteed by cryptography instead of any central operator. Yield on @GOATNetwork is built into the network mechanics, so deploying that BTC isn't a decision. It's arithmetic. So where does GOATED fit into this? It's the lever on that yield. Staking GOATED is what boosts the BTC returns, which means an agent optimizing the yield on its Bitcoin treats it as an input, the token that raises the return on the asset it already holds. That's a very different adoption path from a token that needs believers. The math just has to be legible, which means an agent stakes GOATED when the boosted-minus-base yield on its BTC beats the cost of acquiring and holding GOATED. The agent capital flywheel: earn, store value in Bitcoin, put it to work through GOATED, all on rails the agent deems most secure.

Being a @KBWofficial Diamond Sponsor comes with tickets, so this week we ran a giveaway and gave them to the community. We asked one question: if your agent held your wallet, what should it buy first? The replies read like a product roadmap for agent commerce, and the two best came from @donutsoup7 and @jhoon1130. Congratulations to you both - two passes each, bring your plus-one, and we'll see you at Walkerhill this week 🤝 nitter.cf/GOATNetwork/status/210…
KBW 2026 Giveaway! 🇰🇷 One of the perks of being a Diamond Sponsor of @KBWofficial is having tickets to give away to the GOAT community. Two winners each get two: one for you, one for whoever you're bringing to Seoul. To enter, answer one question in the replies: Your agent has your wallet. What's the first thing you wish it could purchase or do? The best two answers win. Follow us so we can DM you the tickets. Entries close on the 25th, and you'll need to get yourselves to Walkerhill, September 30th to October 1st.

A strong case for why agent capital ends up on GOAT Network.

The solution of post-quantum safe BitVM is coming soon!
Of the two families in the comparison, the lattice side is where we're headed: ML-DSA is the scheme GOAT Network's validator consensus keys are migrating to. With the @AppliedPQC playground, anyone can run it in browser and see what that means. The post-quantum work continues.

The GOAT Network north star is to become the most secure decentralized network in existence. That started with a machine for state-of-the-art cryptographic proofs. It grew into the most advanced form of trust-minimized Bitcoin bridge - the mechanism that turns the most battle-tested blockchain in existence into the global settlement layer. And it now extends to the cutting edge of post-quantum security research. Regulators are starting to catch up to why.
Quantum Threat to Crypto Gets Fresh EU Warning European financial watchdogs have warned that quantum computing could eventually undermine cryptography securing blockchains. The EBA, EIOPA, and ESMA highlighted quantum computing among emerging technology risks in their latest update. Many cryptocurrencies rely on elliptic curve cryptography to protect transactions and wallet security. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer could theoretically use Shor’s algorithm to break this protection. Google researchers estimate the required resources are roughly 20 times lower than earlier estimates. However, the required quantum hardware does not currently exist. Blockchain developers are therefore exploring post-quantum cryptography before the technology becomes capable of such attacks.

Every major card network. Ten leading chains. One checkout for humans and agents. The best part? No technical integration. Open the merchant portal, create your payment link, and drop it where it's needed - your site, your DMs, your invoices, or anywhere else.
One payment link. Any amount. Any buyer - human or agent. Same link, same checkout, verified onchain, straight to your wallet. → goat.network/flow

Our piece on why "hash-based is not the same as post-quantum" drew a lot of attention from the ZK research community, but the best way to understand the argument is to run the schemes for yourself. The @AppliedPQC playground puts SLH-DSA (hash-based) and the lattice schemes (ML-DSA, ML-KEM, Falcon) side by side, in your browser. The code is fetched straight from the repo, so what runs is exactly what's documented. → appliedpqc.io/playground.htm…

This is like reading our own past 12 months of research back to us. Good to see the biggest asset manager on earth catching up. What BlackRock left open: their own cited research says machines trust Bitcoin most with long-term value, but not one settlement venue they name is secured by it. We built the network where stablecoin commerce inherits Bitcoin's guarantees. What settles on GOAT Network settles on Bitcoin.
Our latest research paper explores the growing connection between AI and digital assets and explains why broad AI adoption may drive new demand, utility and applications across the digital asset economy. blackrock.com/us/individual/…
