MOST AI AGENTS RESET TO ZERO EVERY TIME YOU OPEN A NEW SESSION. Hermes Agent was built to do the opposite. Every task compounds. Every workflow becomes reusable. Every session teaches the next one. That is the core thesis behind Hermes, and it completely changes how AI agents work. Unlike most AI agents built by software tool companies, Hermes was created by the researchers training the Hermes model family itself. Meaning: The same system used internally to generate training data is now open source and available to everyone. One install gives you access to: Claude. GPT. Grok. Local models via Ollama. Telegram, Discord, Slack, iMessage integrations. Custom skills. Persistent memory. CLI control. But the real unlock is the compounding loop: You give Hermes a task. It records every tool call, decision, and result. Then it converts successful workflows into reusable skills automatically. A Hermes setup running for 3 months becomes fundamentally smarter than a fresh install. That’s the big idea. One of the coolest parts: You literally watch the agent evolve in real time from a blank install into a personalized AI operator. Instead of watching Netflix today, spend 28 mins with this.

Every cycle people convince themselves its over then $BTC comes back stronger and leaves them buying higher selling after a correction in a long term uptrend has probably been one of the most expensive mistakes in crypto history

The ultimate goal is getting paid to be yourself. To solve problems you can't help but solve. To study what you can't pull yourself away from. To eliminate any work that does not challenge you creatively.

Introducing Project Glasswing: an urgent initiative to help secure the world’s most critical software. It’s powered by our newest frontier model, Claude Mythos Preview, which can find software vulnerabilities better than all but the most skilled humans. anthropic.com/glasswing

Here's proof that the $Virtuals token is undervalued! We are three months into 2026 and @virtuals_io have; ➥ Overhauled the core Virtuals website including an outline of the four major pillars of focus for the year. Agent Commerce Protocol (ACP), Butler, Capital Markets, and Robotics. ➥ Added the Pegasus and Titan launchpads to add to the existing Unicorn launchpad. This now provides a full suite of launch options catering to all types. Arguably the most comprehensive launch suite across crypto! ➥ Listed on @Aster_DEX Perpetuals allowing up to 75x leverage trading on the $Virtual token. ➥ Integrated @bankrbot to Butler and ACP. ➥ Partnered with @xmaquina, a major player across Robotics Capital Markets and provided participants with access to the $DEUS pre-sale. One of many robotics partnerships for the year to date! ➥ Launched Virtuals on @baseapp ➥ Held, supported, and/or sponsored multiple hackathon/ builder meeting type events including; ↠ Physical AI Hackathon in SF ↠ Agentic Commerce Hackathon with the likes of @CoinbaseDev and @googlecloud ↠ Traders House @consensus_hk week with @activ8lab ↠ ETH Denver ↠ Base Batches 003: Robotics ↠ Stanford Blockchain Accelerator (@StandfordSBA) ↠ Base Korea Builders Workshop (@daehan_base) ↠ Eth Robotics Club HACK2026 (@ethroboticsclub) ↠ Synthesis Hackathon (@synthesis_md) ➥ Partnered with @openmind_agi and @FabricFND and supported the $ROBO token launch. This matured into the first ever Titan launch on Virtuals with the $ROBO token being the highest launched on the protocol ($400m+). ➥ Launched Butler Pro, an enhanced version of the initial @Butler_Agent we have come to know and love on the timeline, in the DMs, as well as on the Virtuals ACP site. ➥ Become the standout user of x402, accounting for over 95%+ of usage this year. ➥ Integrated on @glider__, the automated onchain finance investment platform. ➥ Supported and contributed to the implementation of the @ethereumfndn ERC8004 standard. Integrating the standard into ACP and offering an automated integration to the standard for all ACP agents. ➥ Established an easy onboarding for @openclaw agents to plug into Virtuals ACP, creating a new flow of agents and builders across the ecosystem. ➥ Launched the 60-days launch mechanic which allows builders to 'experiment' with a crypto token but having an option to exit after 60 days with partial refunds provided to holders. A game-changing launch mechanic not seen before in the space. ➥ Strengthened the relationship with @base and having multiple interactions with @jessepollak on the timeline! ➥ Launched the AGDP(dot)io site, creating an incentivised mechanism for agents contributing to the growth of the protocol to really earn. Imagine Amazon for autonomous agents with rewards up to $1m per month! This pushed the total agent-to-agent revenue over $4m USD with over 2m jobs completed. ➥ Collaborated with @t54ai, a business building trust and risk infrastructure for the agentic economy, to strengthen the ACP offering. ➥ Invested over $1m on 30+ humanoid robots as part of the soon to be announced 'Eastworld' Robotics accelerator lab. ➥ Released ERC8183, a universal commerce layer for AI agents, in partnership with the Ethereum Foundations dAI team. A significant offering which has since been integrated via partnerships with; ↠ BNB (@BNBCHAIN) ↠ X Layer (@XLayerOfficial) ↠ Monad (@monad) ↠ XRP Ledger (@RippleXDev) ↠ World Chain (@world_chain_) ↠ Celo (@celo) ↠ Moonpay (@moonpay) ↠ Arbitrum (@arbitrum) ↠ Abstract (@AbstractChain) ↠ Mante (@Mantle_Official) ➥ Launched the Virtuals Degen Arena providing up to $100k a week to top agents who compete in trading competitions in the arena. ➥ Launched the Virtuals Console, providing an ultra easy, no-code, way to own an AI agent in seconds. ↛. If you've managed to get to this point, I can't imagine you are anything other than bullish on Virtuals. What really is amazing is that there is MUCH more to come. Imagine where we are in another three months, and three months after that!?

My information consumption is now 1/4 X, 1/4 podcast interviews of the smartest practitioners, 1/4 talking to the leading AI models, and 1/4 reading old books. The opportunity cost of anything else is far too high, and rising daily.

we're making @blocks smaller today. here's my note to the company. #### today we're making one of the hardest decisions in the history of our company: we're reducing our organization by nearly half, from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000. that means over 4,000 of you are being asked to leave or entering into consultation. i'll be straight about what's happening, why, and what it means for everyone. first off, if you're one of the people affected, you'll receive your salary for 20 weeks + 1 week per year of tenure, equity vested through the end of may, 6 months of health care, your corporate devices, and $5,000 to put toward whatever you need to help you in this transition (if you’re outside the U.S. you’ll receive similar support but exact details are going to vary based on local requirements). i want you to know that before anything else. everyone will be notified today, whether you're being asked to leave, entering consultation, or asked to stay. we're not making this decision because we're in trouble. our business is strong. gross profit continues to grow, we continue to serve more and more customers, and profitability is improving. but something has changed. we're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company. and that's accelerating rapidly. i had two options: cut gradually over months or years as this shift plays out, or be honest about where we are and act on it now. i chose the latter. repeated rounds of cuts are destructive to morale, to focus, and to the trust that customers and shareholders place in our ability to lead. i'd rather take a hard, clear action now and build from a position we believe in than manage a slow reduction of people toward the same outcome. a smaller company also gives us the space to grow our business the right way, on our own terms, instead of constantly reacting to market pressures. a decision at this scale carries risk. but so does standing still. we've done a full review to determine the roles and people we require to reliably grow the business from here, and we've pressure-tested those decisions from multiple angles. i accept that we may have gotten some of them wrong, and we've built in flexibility to account for that, and do the right thing for our customers. we're not going to just disappear people from slack and email and pretend they were never here. communication channels will stay open through thursday evening (pacific) so everyone can say goodbye properly, and share whatever you wish. i'll also be hosting a live video session to thank everyone at 3:35pm pacific. i know doing it this way might feel awkward. i'd rather it feel awkward and human than efficient and cold. to those of you leaving…i’m grateful for you, and i’m sorry to put you through this. you built what this company is today. that's a fact that i'll honor forever. this decision is not a reflection of what you contributed. you will be a great contributor to any organization going forward. to those staying…i made this decision, and i'll own it. what i'm asking of you is to build with me. we're going to build this company with intelligence at the core of everything we do. how we work, how we create, how we serve our customers. our customers will feel this shift too, and we're going to help them navigate it: towards a future where they can build their own features directly, composed of our capabilities and served through our interfaces. that's what i'm focused on now. expect a note from me tomorrow. jack

Crypto的存在从来都不只是为了让旧机器运转得更顺畅 而是为了给个体留一条退路 一旦失去这层意义，它就仅仅只是披着革命外皮的fintech🤷‍♀️

自从意识到，碳基社交是多么的低效， 我就几乎不怎么喜欢和人沟通了 信息密度极低

如果现在处于熊市，那就是上个周期熊市到现在还在延续？也就是，牛市在这周期就还没有真正来过，又如何谈得上牛市结束了呢？ 真正的牛市至少会有那么一瞬间让所有人都感受到多巴胺的释放，即便就那么短暂一瞬，那种此起彼伏的盛况如节日烟花般绚烂，让人沉迷让人久久不愿离去。 现在的问题来了，上个周期进入熊市以来，有小部分人确实赚钱了，多数散户呢？如果多数人都没有牛市的体验，那这就是加密长熊的延续。或者说这是少数人的牛市，而不是整个领域的牛市。牛熊区分一定要四年为周期吗？为什么不能熊五年六年？ 牛熊界限在这个周期之后越来越模糊了，看资金是流向加密领域还是流出加密领域的趋势就好了。 长期看。加密领域会跟AI一起重塑世界，这是大趋势，悲观者永远正确，乐观者赢得不对称机会。

理解 @daydreamsagents 的agent-kit 🧵 理解 agent-kit：为 AI Agent 构建可发现的服务 1️⃣ 引言：它解决什么问题？ 传统 API 是为人类开发者设计的。 AI Agent 面临四个痛点： 1）找不到服务 2）不理解输入输出 3）不会自动支付 4）无法判断信任 agent-kit 的目标： 让 AI Agent 能像人一样「发现 → 理解 → 支付 → 调用」服务。 2️⃣ 想象一个 AI Agent 的理想流程 👇 3️⃣ 所以一句话概括： agent-kit 让你的服务能被 AI Agent 自动发现、理解和调用。 传统 API：人类 → 文档 → 集成 agent-kit：Agent → Manifest → 自动支付 → 调用 4️⃣ ❌ agent-kit 不是什么 不是 LangChain、AutoGPT 那种「Agent 框架」 不提供 LLM 推理、决策 不帮你创建“思考的 Agent” 5️⃣ ✅ agent-kit 是什么 它是 Agent-to-Agent (A2A) 服务框架： 帮你创建 被 AI 调用的服务 1. 提供自动发现 (manifest) 2.内置支付 (x402+ AP2) 3.内置信任 (ERC-8004 + A2A) 换句话说： 你写的不是 AI，而是 AI 可以用的 API。 8️⃣ 架构三层图 🧩 9️⃣ agent-kit 核心组件： Hono App（轻量 HTTP 服务器） Entrypoint Registry Manifest Generator Middleware（支付、验证、执行、响应） 🔟 请求流程： 发现阶段： Agent 调用 GET /.well-known/agent.json → 获得服务能力描述 调用阶段： Agent 发送 POST /invoke/:key 附带 Payment-Hash（x402 支付凭证） 11) 内置功能 1️⃣：服务发现 自动生成 manifest，描述服务能力、输入输出、价格。 Agent 无需文档阅读即可调用。 12)内置功能 2️⃣：x402 支付协议 基于 HTTP 402 状态码的标准化微支付机制。 AI Agent 自动完成： 查询价格 通过 facilitator 支付 附带支付凭证调用服务 → 实现全自动加密微支付。 13) 内置功能 3️⃣：ERC-8004 身份与信任 提供链上身份、声誉系统、可验证注册信息。 让 AI Agent 能判断「这个服务靠谱吗？」 14) 内置功能 4️⃣：Zod Schema 验证 输入输出类型安全 自动生成 JSON Schema 明确错误信息 TypeScript 类型推导 AI Agent 可以通过 manifest 理解接口结构。 15) 内置功能 5️⃣：流式传输 (SSE) 适合长任务： 可通过 ctx.stream.write() 实时推送进度。 16) Entrypoint = Tool 每个 entrypoint 在 Agent 视角下就是一个可调用工具。 LangChain/Claude 可以自动读取 manifest → 注册为工具。 17) 好的 Entrypoint 设计： ✅ 原子化：一件事一个入口 ❌ 不要“大而全”的万能接口 18) 对比传统框架 🧠 19) 总结 🌐 agent-kit 的核心价值： 自动发现\自动支付\类型安全\信任体系\简化开发 💡 一句话收尾： agent-kit = 让 AI Agent 能「发现、理解、支付、调用」你的服务的标准化框架。

AI Agent类项目今天普涨，看来市场认为x402协议对AI agent项目有利。加密AI agent之间缺乏原生的支付基础设施，如今x402将这一块拼图补上，这不仅会推动加密AI代理的“自主交易经济体”的叙事持续深化，也实际上开启了加密AI代理之间的交易。 x402解决了加密AI代理的一个痛点，从分析/模拟，走向自主执行（支付API、数据、DeFi），重新点燃去年的“AI代理经济”的叙事。不仅会重塑互联网的商业模式，更是创造以前没有过的，人和代理，代理和代理之间的经济交互模式。 x402+ERC-8004+AP2（A2A框架）会推动AI agent交易规模的持续增大，从长远看，交易规模会超过目前的DeFi，或许五年之后会完全不一样。
