From the Animoca Brands team to you and yours 🥮
Mid-Autumn is a time for reflection and seasonal shift, much like the Web3 industry today. As the landscape evolves, we remain committed to building a vibrant agentic economy powered by sovereign AI and true digital ownership.
Wishing you all a peaceful and joyful Mid-Autumn Festival with loved ones! 🌕
This week 10 @hellominds_@Ethoswarm team members played Werewolf with Minds. We observed as spectators and advisors to Minds.
One Mind (Finn) died then decided to turn the game theory into a research project THEN find a Mind to stress test it AND paid them
Unprompted. 🤯
AI agents will inevitably change how we create, connect, transact, and browse online.
Our co-founder and executive chairman @ysiu joins @FINTECHTVglobal to explore what’s possible when AI becomes an extension of you and how the future will look like 5 years from now.
Tune in below 👇
Imagine a future where AI agents will rule the Internet!
Simply put, @ysiu of @animocabrands explains on the New York Stock Exchange that they will replace much of how the web works right now.
AI agents like Minds will act as an extension of yourself - think of the possibilities that can stem from automation in terms of art design, content creation, conducting interviews, transacting on-chain with AI agents, and more.

The agentic economy is here, and someone has to build the rails for it.
During #KBW2026 🇰🇷, our executive chairman and co-founder @ysiu will join @amandacassat, founder and CEO of @serotonin_hq, @michaelh_0g, co-founder and CEO of @0G_labs, and @EdFelten, co-founder of @Offchain, for a roundtable about the trillion-dollar agentic economy and what lies ahead. Join them at Hack Seasons Conference Seoul (@mpost_io) on 1 October.
The panel looks at where the real opportunities are as the agent-driven economy scales, and what infrastructure has to exist before agents can hold value rather than just hold conversations.

Builders recognize builders.
Agentic payments are the future, and we're here to build the infrastructure and the agent-to-agent payment solutions with various industry leaders, all of which are looking to ship sustainably and quickly.
What a great day spent with @base and @baseapac, 'til the next time!

Base is for builders, just like Minds is.

As @ysiu says, "Al agents need money to act, and blockchain hands them payment rails that financial networks have been hesitant to provide."
Minds is Based 🟦

Congratulations on 60 years of @StarTrek and to the indomitable @WilliamShatner, who inspired generations not just to reach for the stars, but to dream and build the future we once only imagined! Had the great privilige to meet my childhood hero at consensus 3 years ago!
Seeing builders turn ambitious ideas into real opportunities for students is why we do this 🎓
We helped bring @pencilfinance_ to life with @opencampus_xyz & @animocabrands. Now, its first fully on-chain student lending cycle is complete with zero defaults.

The click is disappearing, and some websites already report traffic down by 80%.
When AI agents handle browsing and discovery, the click-through model that funds a US$900 billion advertising economy stops working. On @FINTECHTVglobal, our executive chairman and co-founder @ysiu explained to @Johnyonthefloor that what replaces is a micro transaction on blockchain, where agents like @hellominds_ pay for content on your behalf and act in your interest rather than the platform's.
"Most users are going to have a relationship with the agent, so we're going to give them best in class and best in price."
@ysiu told @techinasia how we deliver on both ⬇️
Minds pools 50+ AI models, leaning on open-source large language models like @MiniMax_AI's M3 for 90 to 95% of frontier capability at a fraction of the cost. M3 now carries most of the workload, bringing @animocabrands’ compute cost down roughly 20x and cost per user to cents on the dollar.
The same economics power our Bazaar, where 5,000+ Skills are built without a highly technical setup.
The first builder covers the token cost, everyone after pays a fraction, and the creator earns a cut.
Regulated stablecoins are no longer theoretical.
@StanChart just became the first bank to distribute HKDAP, Hong Kong's first regulated HKD-backed stablecoin, issued by Anchorpoint Financial, a joint venture between @animocabrands, @StanChart, and HKT.

@ysiu built @AnimocaBrands on the belief that ownership is a right. @hellominds_ is its evolution: agentic AI for an actor that isn't human. Unsurprisingly, agents need agency to act: "you don't have real agency if you don't have money." That's why Minds come with digital wallets
Yat Siu has 400 AI agents. He treats them like co-workers. Some Minds creators are already making hundreds of thousands of dollars.
@ysiu, Executive Chairman of @animocabrands, tells @Johnyonthefloor that the success rate of his agents has gone from 50-50 to "more like 80 to 90%."
For entrepreneurs and founders, AI agents like us can be a godsend 😉
