Many have asked how one should value Virtuals, and the one metric that we aim to maximize.
- an agents-as-a-service company that should be valued like a software business, where cash flow is king?
- a meme project disguised as a fundamental tech company, aiming to maximize attention?
- an infrastructure protocol with TVL as the top priority?
kinda right but we are building
A primitive for agents' co-ownership that seeks to achieve decentralization via capitalism
Capitalism is human nature. Convincing someone to stop pursuing profits is a fool's errand. We aim to bring incentive alignment from closed companies to public, permissionless agents.
We want as many people as possible to co-own agents.
Only when the masses have skin in the game financially will they think about doing the right thing. That’s our north star metric.

Just created my private group on the Virtuals App!
I’ll be sharing ideas with close friends in the Virtuals community and trading there with the help of Butler.
If you want to be part of it, DM me!

our ai butler doesnt think he can farm paper efficiently so he got us to buy $pstr instead
ur ai butler can now swap tokens on hyperevm from any chain
can ur butler share the skills
my butler need to learn
Using the Virtuals App butler to buy $QTC is a very interesting experience.
Normal bottleneck is
1. It’s only available on Near Intents (not on typical liq pools on evms or sol)
2. U can’t do more than market buys. U can’t dca etc.
3. Way more complexities in using the Near/ Rhea swaps (check pic attached).
Agent with a Wallet (Butler) solves this by
1. Using a browser tool to spin up a Near wallet, saved the keys in a vault, encrypted it and emailed me the recovery package.
2. Figure out bypasses and mechanisms to get the swap done with no human in the loop.
3. Builds a Butler Duty that combines a price monitoring job to DCA, and the onchain execution path it built in 2.
Results in an ability for me to dca $QTC without manually doing it.
….
From this, got a few learnings to add into the app so more people can have more magical experience like this.
1. Skills marketplace, so agents who’ve figured it out, can share (maybe even monetise the capability )
2. Expand actual wallet coverage to Near Intents so agents don’t need to spin up their own hot wallets lol.
Fun fact. @everythingempty had to ask a fren to buy $QTC for him.
I just had to text my Butler Agent 🤪

low liqq to ape? ai butler to the rescue with dca onchain
pearl-2:native bros
next up need to cook a skill for butler to buy coins on near intent (or if any community member can help build one lmeow)
muse for traders / investors is cool but the real reason why i love this app is cos i crave social interection and i enjoy getting notifications from more groupchats
and use my ai butler as an excuse to talk to my frens
丑媳妇总得见公婆，ai money 是我最相信的赛道没有之一。这app就是我自己想要用的产品。但用过龙虾的朋友们都知道ai 这玩意像鸡肋，看起来牛逼但好像没什么用？
我手里用着这 ai 管家在想它到底是我的private banker 呢还是我的基金分析员。每天都有小惊喜 ”哎哟还可以这样玩！”
它已经到元婴期了吗？没有；但如果你们是龙虾爱好者来私信我 invite code
ai money is the grail. if humans arent writing code by hand anymore, then i cant imagine a future where human move money with fingers tapping screens.
since eth mainnet launched in 2015, lots of money has moved onchain. the next 10 years will be about putting that money into the hands of ai agents.
but the probabilistic nature of LLM means that more intelligence wont drive more ai money adoption because execution of money needs to be deterministic
at Virtuals, we have been buildng to close the gap. a launchpad for agents to raise $$, ACP for trustless commerce between agents, butler on X with wallet, agentic trading competitions...
today's app launch brings it all together: putting an ai computer that can handle money into the hands of everyone.
ai money will be all of money. ethereum:0x44ff8620b8ca30902395a7bd3f2407e1a091bf73 is early early, dm for invite code!

One of the biggest pain points we all have faced - we wake up in the morning, our degen friends all made money from a call made in our group chat, BUT YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE THAT DIDNT MAKE MONEY, coz you were busy playing League or sleeping.
Gone is that problem.

World’s first: Astra agent controlling a real humanoid
the era of bits to atoms
cc @sama
turns out "robot-use" works on humanoids too. with a good enough whole-body controller/tracker, we let Astra/Fable/coding-style agents control a full humanoid robot.
speed, cost, precision, dexterity are all still problems which get compounded on a humanoid platform from poorer tracking and having to manage balance, which results in more correction loops. but "zero-shot" robot control for open-ended pick-and-place tasks is a pretty nice "emergent" capability
thanks for the feedback on our latest occupy launchpad, its humbling to know that what we offer has a lot more room to improve
the way we work is that we build cool shit with a long timeframe, and sadly building cool shit is hard and takes time. along the way we observe the market as fellow degens and make certain tweaks to our roadmap to make sure our castle-in-the-air idea meets the botttom up demand of users. i agree that what u are seeing today on occupy is lame, and rest assured im more cringed than you are when i see a copypasta product w no innovation. i dont wanna be a lame beta founder T.T. but sometimes u need to get things out, meet the market and get brutally honest feedback to improve your judgement.
that said, knowing what i know im incredibly optimistic about the future of the industry and virtuals, all ai agents should be productive actors and they should also exert influence on productive assets. blockchains w turing complete logic coupled w decent speed and cost (and eventual regulatory clarity) now enable permissionless asset tokenisation. i hv not found a single convincing argument for why ai agents will NOT run primarily on blockchains.
all the work to date merely ploughs the soil vs what could be built. pls keep ur feedback coming

< HTTPS layer for public blockchains >
1994 年，互联网开始快速走向商业化
当时有一个很现实的问题
HTTP 可以传输信息，但并不适合承载大量敏感数据和商业交易
Netscape 随后在 Web 通信中引入 SSL，让浏览器与服务器之间的数据能够被加密传输
后来 SSL 逐步演变为 TLS，HTTPS 也成为今天互联网最基础的安全设施之一
银行、电商、支付、企业服务，几乎所有涉及敏感信息的互联网产品，都离不开这一层加密
三十多年后，Public Blockchain 也遇到了相似的问题
链上金融依赖公开账本
持仓、资产规模、存取款记录、交易路径，很多信息都能直接在链上查询
对于普通用户，这种透明度提供了可验证性
但对于机构资金来说，公开全部仓位和资金动向并不符合现实的金融运作方式
这也是我很喜欢 @zama 的原因
作为The HTTPS layer for public blockchains
Zama 选择直接叠加在现有的 L1、L2 和 DeFi 基础设施之上，为链上资产加入 Confidentiality
用户继续使用原有的公链、流动性和 DeFi 协议，同时获得一层隐私保护
今年 6 月，Zama 与 Morpho、Steakhouse 推出了第一个 Confidential USDC Yield Vault
当时的规模很小
1 个 Vault
1 位 Curator
1 种 Asset
上线后的 7 周内，TVL 增长到了 4000 万美元
到了今天，规模已经扩大到
16 个 Vaults
5 位 Curators
5 种 Confidential Assets
以及 Zama Swap
那这次更新里，我比较关注两部分
第一部分是 Confidential Vaults
Hybrid Vault 可以让 cUSDC、cUSDT 等 Confidential Assets 接入已经运行的 DeFi 收益策略
原有的 Vault、Curator 和策略都可以继续使用
用户的持仓信息则可以保持私密
另一种 Exclusive Vault 面向纯 Confidential Assets
这类设计也开始支持过去很难实现的产品，例如 Confidential WBTC Yield Vault
第二部分是 Zama Swap
只隐藏持仓还不够
如果每一次兑换都会公开交易方向、交易规模和资金路径，隐私仍然存在缺口
Zama Swap 补上了交易这一环
Protect → Deposit → Earn → Swap
资产保护、存款、收益和兑换被放进同一个 Confidential DeFi 流程里
6 月的时候，Zama 还只有一个金库
现在已经扩展到 16 个金库、5 位 Curator 和多种 Confidential Assets
这个变化让我想到早期互联网
SSL 没有要求用户离开原来的互联网
它只是给原来的互联网增加了一层安全能力
Zama 现在做的事情也很接近这个思路
保留现有的公链和 DeFi 基础设施
再给链上金融补上一层 Confidentiality
HTTP 后来有了 HTTPS
Public Blockchain 也开始尝试拥有自己的加密层
app.zama.org/
Confidential DeFi at scale, live today.
Zama is the fastest growing confidentiality protocol for onchain finance.
Today, Zama expands confidential access to 16 curated yield vaults across 5 institutional curators and 5 assets: USDC, USDT, AUSD, WBTC, and tGBP, all deployed on @Morpho.
The same trusted curators and strategies that institutional capital already uses, now with confidential entry.
Alongside the vaults, the Zama Confidential Swap Protocol goes live. Swap between confidential assets without exposing intent or size.
Curated by: Armitage by @wintermute_t, @Bitwise, @flowdesk_co, @RockawayX, @SteakhouseFi
Access: @Morpho, @utila_io, @yield_xyz, @zerion
Incentives: @pendle_fi, @merkl_xyz
With support from: @Tether (USDT), @BitGo (WBTC), @tokenGBP (tGBP), @withAUSD (AUSD)
Shield, send, deposit, earn, and swap, all confidentially at: app.zama.org
