ERC-8004 Skills has been introduced as an agent-native stack that transforms 8004scan into a programmable system for AI.​

This development builds on the protocol's recent growth:

  • 75k+ registered agents across 21 integrated chains
  • 55k+ feedback submissions providing reputation signals
  • 61k+ active users engaging with the ecosystem

The Skills framework enables:

  • Filtering agents by specific capabilities
  • Programmatic access to agent identity and feedback data
  • Real-time discovery through structured registry queries

The 8004scan platform now offers developers tools to build on top of the agent registry, including MCP & A2A endpoint testing and unified network analytics.​

This infrastructure layer addresses the challenge of agent discovery as thousands of new ERC-8004 agents deploy daily across multiple chains.​

**AltLayer Restaked Rollups** are reinforcing rollup infrastructure with shared security and stronger crypto-economic guarantees through restaking. **Key Features:** - Builds on existing rollup scalability with enhanced security guarantees - Leverages restaking to provide decentralized infrastructure - Strengthens rollup architecture with shared security model This development represents the next evolution in rollup technology, moving beyond basic scalability to focus on security and reliability.

Ottie Launches Dedicated Platform for Ethereum-Native AI Agent Deployment

**Ottie, a self-evolving AI agent designed specifically for Ethereum, now has its own dedicated platform at [ottie.xyz](http://ottie.xyz).** Users can deploy the agent in just 4 commands. Unlike general-purpose AI agents, Ottie is built with native understanding of blockchain mechanics including gas optimization, slippage management, and DeFi protocols. **Key capabilities include:** - Ethereum-native skills and operations - Multichain DeFi execution - Self-evolving architecture that adapts over time - Security-first design approach The platform addresses a gap in the AI agent space, where most solutions lack the technical understanding required for effective Web3 operations. Ottie processes blockchain-specific parameters that traditional AI agents typically mishandle or ignore entirely.

x402 Suite Enables Autonomous AI Agents to Execute and Settle Payments Onchain

**x402 Suite** introduces infrastructure for AI agents to operate independently without human oversight. **Key capabilities:** - Every API request is settled, verified, and recorded onchain - AI agents can call services and process payments automatically - No permissions, accounts, or manual coordination required - All transactions are transparent and auditable The protocol transforms API calls into economic actions where one request equals one payment and one verifiable execution. This enables AI agents to function as autonomous participants in the network, handling transactions and service calls 24/7. The system is designed for agent-native infrastructure where machines can transact directly without intermediaries or traditional API structures.
