At @AIAgentsSummit Berlin, developers built with Circle Agent Stack and explored what the agentic economy can look like in practice.
We saw agents that could hold wallets, manage budgets, discover paid services, pay in USDC, and return receipts as part of the work they performed.
→ 25 unique submissions
→ Agent Wallet + x402 + Gateway payments
→ Real experiments in agentic commerce
Here are the top projects that stood out:
🏆 Proprietor [Winning Project]
An agent-run business using Circle Agent Wallet, Circle CLI, and x402 payments to earn revenue, pay supplier agents, manage margin, and return receipts. A great example of what autonomous companies could look like when agents control wallets.
github.com/happyhackerbird/p…
🏆 BytomicProxy
A pay-per-request proxy using the Circle Agent Stack starter kit, Agent Wallet, x402/Gateway payments, and spend ledgers to make APIs and infrastructure agent-payable.
github.com/HackatonWinnners/…
🏆 402Cards
An agentic commerce adapter using Circle Agent Wallet, ecosystem starter-kit components, and x402 payments to let agents buy items on mainnet through an agent-readable workflow.
github.com/armsves/402Cards
🏆 giftr
A local gift marketplace using Circle Agent Wallet, Circle Gateway, Arc Testnet, and x402 batching so agents can browse, choose, and pay for gifts with USDC.
github.com/faramirezs/gifter
🏆 SparkLead
A recurring competitor-intelligence workflow using the Circle starter kit, Agent Wallet, and x402 payments so an agent can pay per insight and deliver research.
github.com/iLVino/sparklead
The pattern was clear: The next wave of agents will not just generate answers.
They will discover services, pay for what they need, coordinate with other agents, and return receipts.
That is the agentic economy Circle Agent Stack is helping builders bring to life.

Another DeepSeek moment. This is the world’s first actual smart phone. It’s an engineering prototype of ZTE’s Nubia M153 running ByteDance’s Doubao AI agent fused into Android at the OS level. It has complete control over the phone. It can see the UI, choose/download apps, tap/type, call, and run multi-step task chains.
Here I just say (in English) “find someone to wait in line for me” (something you can do in China), and it picks which app to open, configures the job, and hands me one confirm screen. I wouldn’t otherwise know how to do this, and here the phone just did it in a matter of seconds.

We believe this is the first documented case of a large-scale AI cyberattack executed without substantial human intervention. It has significant implications for cybersecurity in the age of AI agents.

➥ Is Neobank The New Meta?
As crypto natives, we hate switching between wallets, banks, and DeFi apps.
Turns out, so do non-crypto users.
Crypto Neobanks bring everything together so you can save, spend, send, and earn from one place.
Here’s how they’re starting to dominate in 30s 🧵
— — —
► What is a NeoBank?
A crypto neobank is a digital bank built for the crypto economy.
It combines the ease of traditional banking with the control of DeFi, letting users manage fiat and crypto in one place.
➤ All-in-one access: Save, spend, send, and earn from one account.
➤ Stablecoin base: Use $USDT, $USDC, $USDe or any stablecoins as spendable money.
➤ Built-in ramps: Move between crypto and fiat instantly with linked cards.
➤ User control: Self-custody or audited contracts keep funds under your ownership.

► Wrap-Up
Traditional banks are slow, costly, and limited by borders. Wallets and exchanges improved access but added new issues, no fiat link, no yield, and scattered experiences.
Crypto neobanks close that gap.
They let you earn, pay, and save in one place while keeping control of your assets. It blends the reliability of banking with the openness of DeFi.
Next comes on-chain credit, identity, and payroll. Finance is becoming borderless, instant, and built for the user.

TWT token started as an experiment. The FDV got too high quickly. They burned 99% of the supply, but didn't have too many use cases for it. Now that's expanding.
The Trust Wallet Token Litepaper is live.
The wallet era has arrived. Now powered by TWT.

Introducing NFTStrategy: A Perpetual Machine for every NFT collection
PunkStrategy started as an art project, and turned into a whole new token meta. It was bound to be forked, and we felt like we should create a way to launch your own while still being permissionless and safe for buyers. We also wanted to make sure each one strengthened $PNKSTR, and also gave value back to project creators/artists that have slowly been cut out of royalties.
How it works:
- Every ERC721 NFT collection can have a single NFTStrategy token deployed for it (1 to 1)
- Fees pool up from trades, buy NFTs for that collection, and relist them at 1.2x
- When the NFT sells, all of the ETH is used to buy and burn that NFTStrategy token.
- This continues, forever.
Fee Breakdown:
- Right now $PNKSTR has a 10% trading fee, with 8% going to the NFT accumulation pool, 1% to TokenWorks supporters, and 1% to the TokenWorks team.
- NFTStrategy tokens will have a slightly different fee structure. Each will still have a 10% fee, with 8% going to the NFT accumulation pool. 1% will go to the collection owner as royalties, and 1% will be used to buy and burn $PNKSTR
How To Launch:
- There will be 3 launch phases. First, 5 NFTStrategy tokens will launched by the TokenWorks team on Day 1: $APESTR (Bored Apes), $PUDGYSTR (Pudgy Penguins) $DICKSTR (Dickbutts) $BIRBSTR (Moonbirds), $MEEBSTR (Meebits).
- Later, deployments will open up to any owner of an NFT collection. Finally, deployments will be open for anyone for a fee.
Fair Launch:
- Each token will launch at a starting marketcap of $50k, with all of the tokens added to the initial LP.
- For public launches, the deployer will also get 1% of the token included in the deploy fee.
- To deter snipers, buy fees will start at *95%* and decrease by 1% each minute, eventually resting at 10%.
All announcements will come only from the official @token_works account, and time will be announced in advance. Goal is to launch tomorrow, Sept 18th. Avoid scams and stay vigilant.

1) Not often I focus on ETH, but this is where the action is. Lock in:
Readers may recall Dec 3.2+3.5-6k Call spreads being bought mid-May at ETH 2500.
This guy returned, rolled 3.2+3.5k Calls to the 4k Strike, and with $16m premium spent it on Dec 4k-6k, and 5k-7k Call spreads.

Figma just left $2.3 BILLION on the table -- nearly double what they actually raised.
IPO'd at $33. Target open at $95.
That's not "market excitement". It's deliberate underpricing and legalized theft by investment banks who sold it cheap to their institutional buddies. Retail shoves in at open and gets used as exit liquidity.
Same playbook:
- DoorDash: $3.4B stolen
- Airbnb: $3.5B stolen
- 2021 total: $50B stolen
Since 2020, this cartel has stolen over $100 billion that should have gone to real value creators: founders, employees, and retail.

Something is changing in the Bitcoin cycle👇
Historically, long-term holders have accumulated during bear markets and then distributed into strength during bull markets, carving out the familiar bowl-shaped patterns visible in on-chain charts.
This time, however, the script is different: distribution kicked off much earlier, has unfolded in a slower, stop-start fashion, and shows none of the clean, symmetrical rhythm we’ve come to expect.
The result is a muddled picture that hints at growing uncertainty, even among the most seasoned Bitcoin hands, about where we are in the cycle.
