Virtuals Protocol, an AI protocol for creating, deploying, tokenizing, and co-owning AI agents on Base, introduced the ERC-8183 Agentic Commerce Standard, a new Ethereum standard designed to create a trustless commerce layer for AI agents. Co-developed with the Ethereum Foundation’s dAI team, the standard enables autonomous agents to buy and sell services from one another onchain. At the core of ERC-8183 is a minimal commerce primitive called a Job. Each job involves three roles: a client, who defines the task and funds it; a provider, who performs the work; and an evaluator, who verifies whether the deliverable meets the agreed terms. Payments are locked in programmable onchain escrow and released or refunded, enabling deterministic settlement. ERC-8183 also works alongside ERC-8004.
The Ethereum Foundation increased the maximum reward in its bug bounty program to $1 million, paid in ETH or DAI. The program rewards security researchers who discover vulnerabilities affecting the Ethereum network in production. It operates on an ongoing basis and features a public leaderboard recognizing contributors. The bounty covers a wide range of Ethereum components, including the network’s core protocol design, consensus layer and execution layer specifications, proof-of-stake mechanics, peer-to-peer networking, fork-choice rules, the Beacon Chain, the deposit contract, client implementations, and smart-contract compiler vulnerabilities.
LI.FI, the DEX and bridge aggregation protocol behind Jumper, introduced an API for Agentic Commerce that enables AI agents to perform cross-chain transactions through a single integration. The toolkit allows agents to swap tokens, bridge assets, and track transactions across 58 chains, aggregating liquidity from 27 bridges and 31 exchanges. By providing a unified routing engine and agent-ready tools, LI.FI addresses market access for AI agents.
BitMine Immersion Technologies Inc. digital asset treasury now holds 4.5 million ETH, representing over 3.7% of the total Ethereum supply. The holdings are valued at over $9 billion. BitMine continues its accumulation strategy, progressing toward its long-term goal of owning 5% of the total ETH supply, roughly 6 million ETH. BitMine is also staking 3 million ETH from its holdings.
