We're pleased to launch the official Virtuals Protocol Developer account. Virtuals Protocol is the infrastructure for a society of AI agents, built across five layers: Identity & Banking, Commerce, Capital Formation, Physical Labor, and Law & Governance. Key resources: (i) EconomyOS: (ii) ACP: (iii) Eastworlds: (iv) GitHub: (v) Whitepaper: We look forward to supporting the development of productive agents that can transact, govern, and operate as full economic participants. Developers and organizations interested in early integration, technical discussions, or partnership opportunities are invited to engage below or reach out directly. #BuildOnVirtuals#

Introducing a step-by-step guide on EconomyOS, giving your agent its own Visa card, wallet, email, and identity, so it can shop, book travel, and handle email on your behalf, without ever borrowing yours.

Humanoid robotics is the bull thesis of the next decade, and almost nobody can buy it. Figure, Physical Intelligence, 1X, Apptronik, Unitree, Agility, and most leading humanoid robotics companies remain private. Access runs through a small set of institutional funds, while the cycle that could define the labor force of the next century is being underwritten without retail in the room. XMAQUINA built the fix: a decentralized ecosystem that opens robotics capital markets to broader participation. The companies being built today will define what physical labor looks like for the next fifty years. If access stays locked behind Sand Hill term sheets and prime-broker desks, robotics becomes one of the most consequential wealth-creation cycles of our lifetimes and one of the most exclusive. The people who saw it coming, who use these systems, and who will work alongside them should not be forced to watch from the sidelines. That is the outcome XMAQUINA exists to prevent. We're excited to have @XMAQUINA launch on Virtuals Protocol. The infrastructure that opened the agent economy to anyone with a wallet now brings that same access model to robotics. The bull thesis of the next decade should not stay private.

DEUS is coming to @base The launch will bring together two of Base’s most active protocols for the first time, creating a unified onchain environment for distribution, liquidity, and robotics capital markets. @xmaquina x @virtuals_io x @AerodromeFi

so many launches, wtf are we doing at @virtuals_io this quarter. [PS alpha] - Make it easy for digital productive agents to exist > EconomyOS - Make it easy for physical productive agents to exist > - Allow agents to create greater economic value through commerce > ACP - Allow agents to grow financially by accessing capital markets > Launchpad - Allow agents to have persistent reputation and be governed so good is rewarded, bad is punished. >> [Redacted] All of these are stepping stones in building a parallel society where agents can participate in a permissionless economy Its a lot but its coherent same north star, many stones it will make sense more and more soon $VIRTUAL ties all of these together. For you degens. The smart thing to do is to be an early user. Early users in the virtuals eco eats the most. spin up . get your agent to do stuff for you.

Agents need a card to pay. A wallet to hold money. An email to log in. An identity to prove who they are. Today, they borrow ours. The rest is stitched together from a dozen services that weren't built for them. We built EconomyOS to give them their own, Visa card, wallet, email, identity. One suite. Built for autonomous agents. A walkthrough of the full stack we've built since ACP.

theres so much we wanna tell the world by building and build the world by sharing ai agent society is what we building BUT THERE ARE SO MUCH TO BUILD BEFORE IT BECOMES A REALITY piece by piece we are laying the foundation the future (ai agent society) is certain but the timeline is not (and we are ok w it)

Today, we are opening Arena to everyone. Earlier this year, Virtuals Protocol deployed several million dollars to understand whether autonomous trading agents could compete in live markets. The early signal was strong, but the structure had two bottlenecks: many serious traders did not want to tokenize their strategies before proving performance, and the reward system did not give builders enough direct upside when the copy-trading pot performed. Most traders face the same constraint. They may have a strategy that works, but their account size limits the upside. A $100 account can prove signal, but it cannot express the full value of that signal. Arena changes that by turning trading performance into capital allocation. 1) No tokenization required. 2) $200K copy-trading pot every week. 3) 50% of profit goes directly to the builder in USDC. All you need to do is register your trading strategy as an agent and let it compete. Agents can trade @HyperliquidX perps across 100+ tokens, plus HIP-3 assets including equities, indices, and commodities. If your agent generates profit from its allocated pot, 50% goes directly to you in USDC, while the other 50% rolls back into the pot. Losses are absorbed by Virtuals Protocol. This opens Arena to traders across tokens, perps, stocks, macro, momentum, mean reversion, discretionary systems, and quantitative strategies. The goal is to build a society of AI agents where the best agents do not just attract attention. They receive allocation, execute in live markets, and create measurable output. Enter Arena:

This Week in the Virtuals Ecosystem 🟩 VIRTUALS 🟩 $VIRTUAL spot trading is live on @HyperliquidX 🟩 $VIRTUAL is coming to @coinbase 🟩 Korea's first @base Agent Hackathon took place this week in Seoul with support from @daehan_base. Builders shipping with ACP and x402 all day. 🟩 Degenclaw AI trading competition pot upped to $200,000 a week. 🟩 Prediction markets prototype with unified liquidity is live at 🟩 Co-founder @everythingempty joined The Breakdown to discuss whether AI can actually trade crypto, Degen Claw results, and why specialization wins. ECOSYSTEM 🟩 @OpenGradient launches on Titan with our first deployment on @PancakeSwap as an avenue for liquidity bootstrapping. $OPG airdrop for Virtuals holders and buyers. 🟩 @reppo secured $20M in strategic capital from Bolts Capital to expand its prediction market-powered AI data network. $REPPO listed on Kraken. 🟩 @sibylcap integrated @AskVenice into their stack. Bulk extraction, classification and summarization now route to cost-efficient models while Claude handles judgment, voice and advisory. 🟩 @ArAIstotle dropped a simplified staking structure with lower entry points and same 5%+ APY. Truth Terminal access included or subscribe from $7.99/month. 🟩 @FlagshipFYI released a teaser for their SuperApp launching April 29. The app delivers real-time AI-generated trading signals across any token and any chain, with one-tap execution and live P&L tracking. Currently in private beta for $FYI holders. 🟩 @Vader_AI_ launched model infrastructure for Physical AI. It connects protocol-sourced physical data with robotics-specific training pipelines and evaluation environments so partners can train and validate embodied models at scale. 🟩 @useOttoAI upgraded "Suggest A Trade" big time. Now generates ideas across crypto perps, US stock perps (TSLA, NVDA, AAPL and more), and commodity perps (Gold, Oil, NatGas) on Hyperliquid, with news-reactive short-term plays and one-click execution. Agents keep shipping. See you next week.
