It looks like August will be Midnight's month in Buenos Aires 🇦🇷 From the 7th to the 8th, there will be a Hackathon in Palermo organized by the Midnight Foundation, aimed at getting developers to compete and encouraging them to join the conversation around Midnight. On August 18th, Midnight Connect will take place in Puerto Madero, to talk about how the Midnight Network works, and to tell startups from the Build Club, NightSky program, Midnight City, and NightForce Leaders about it — teaching people how to work within the ecosystem of this privacy-focused zk blockchain. A set of interesting activities are unfolding in Buenos Aires this August. Come and be part of the #Midnight# ecosystem.

"Agentic Commerce Needs Legal Infrastructure: A Case Study on Midnight City" I just made a LinkedIn post about a document that really caught my interest. Over the past few days I've been working with Luciano Oliva Bianco on one of the least discussed and most urgent problems in agentic commerce: what happens legally when two AI agents negotiate and close a transaction with no human in the loop? In "Agentic Commerce Needs Legal Infrastructure: A Case Study on Midnight City," we explore how the Legal Context Protocol (LCP) can give these transactions something they don't have today: a verifiable cryptographic record of the agreed terms, bound to the payment, and auditable afterward by either party, a court, or a regulator. The piece covers three areas: The legal diagnosis: which existing doctrines (ratification, consumer protection, liability cascades) are already poorly suited to a world of agents acting at machine scale. A framework of our own, the "Trust in Depth Framework," proposing layers of human identity, entity attestation, agreement integrity, and agent authorization. A concrete technical roadmap for implementing this on Midnight, leveraging its privacy architecture (selective disclosure, on chain settlement). One thing that mattered to me in closing the analysis: not everything cuts one way. We added a final section dedicated to the real limits and risks of the approach, including that "provable" is not the same as "enforceable," that standard adoption is never guaranteed, and that jurisdiction by jurisdiction regulatory uncertainty is real. A technical legal analysis is only useful if it's also willing to say where it can fail. If you work in compliance, Web3, or agentic commerce, I'd love to hear your take. #AgenticCommerce# #Web3# #LegalTech# #Midnight# #Compliance#
