SEC Crypto Task Force Priorities
SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce announced the launch of the SEC Crypto Task Force’s initial webpage and key priorities for the program. The newly formed task force seeks to establish a clear and structured regulatory framework for the cryptocurrency industry, addressing shortcomings in the SEC’s prior lack of regulatory clarity. The task force already rescinded SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 121. Its key priorities include clarifying the security status of crypto assets, defining the SEC’s jurisdiction, exploring temporary relief for token issuers, improving registration pathways, addressing crypto-lending and staking, and fostering international cooperation. Commissioner Peirce emphasized that regulation should not be seen as an endorsement of any crypto product.
Coinbase Wallet Integrating Farcaster
Coinbase Wallet announced plans to integrate the Farcaster social graph into an upcoming release of its mobile wallet app. The overhaul is designed to enhance app discovery, making it easier for users to find new apps while helping builders go viral. The new version, set to launch in the coming months, will be 10x faster, more user-friendly, and enable frictionless crypto payments. By leveraging Farcaster Frames v2, Coinbase Wallet will support mini-apps to merge social and crypto, allowing users to follow, trade, and share directly within the wallet. Frames are full-screen applications with dynamic features and seamless in-feed interactions. Creators will also have access to tools for building communities and monetizing.
EigenLayer Introduces Level 1 Agents
EigenLayer introduced the Level 1 Agent, a standardized framework for integrating AI agents with verifiable tools. The framework enables AI agents to operate in a decentralized manner using EigenLayer’s Autonomous Verifiable Services (AVSs), backed by Ethereum’s cryptoeconomic security. The framework bridges the gap between onchain and offchain AI processing. Inference AVSs allow AI agents to perform offchain inference while maintaining verifiability. EigenDA provides decentralized, cost-effective data availability for AI agents to store memory. Policy AVSs enforce input/output constraints to prevent AI manipulation and ensure responsible decision-making. And Event-Driven Activation (EDA) AVSs enable AI agents to respond dynamically to onchain and offchain events.
