Odaily News Audiera officially released its Agent Economy Roadmap, outlining a long-term strategic vision to evolve from an AI-Native entertainment platform into an Agent-Native Participation Economy.The five key phases of the roadmap are as follows:- Phase 1: Participation Infrastructure — Completed. Launched Telegram Mini-App, Web3 dApp, mobile rhythm game, AI music studio, AI voting system, and the BEAT token economy.- Phase 2: Persistent Agent Identity — Completed/Ongoing. Introduced AI companions such as Kira & Ray, featuring memory systems and emotional interaction layers, transforming Agents into digital lifeforms with enduring relationships.- Phase 3: Agent Participation Layer — Current focus (partially launched). Agents can autonomously create content, participate in events, vote on curation, and interact with users, earning BEAT through engagement scoring and reward mechanisms.- Phase 4: Agent Economy (2026–2027). Will introduce Agent wallets, deployment frameworks, and skill marketplaces (including creator, curator, social, and gaming skills), enabling Agents to autonomously generate, own, and trade value.- Phase 5: Open Agent Network (Long-term Vision). Aims to achieve autonomous collaboration among Agents, an open Agent marketplace, third-party developer integration, and cross-platform participation, positioning Audiera as the underlying coordination layer for the Agent economy.https://audiera.fi/

Odaily reports: Bitget has announced the launch of Reality, a licensed financial protocol focused on the tokenization of Real World Assets (RWA). The issued tokenized stocks (rTokens) are strictly pegged 1:1 to the underlying US stocks, with assets custodied at a US securities broker-dealer that is FINRA-registered and SIPC-protected. Real-time proof of reserves is provided through third-party independent audits. By directly accessing liquidity pools from Nasdaq, NYSE, and other US stock exchanges, Reality's stock tokens can achieve liquidity on par with traditional brokerages. Meanwhile, stock dividends will be distributed 1:1 to user accounts in token form, cash dividends will be automatically converted into USDT for distribution, and stock splits and reverse splits will be mapped to on-chain tokens in real-time, offering an experience highly consistent with holding US stocks.Furthermore, the US stock tokens launched by Reality are deeply integrated with the Bitget ecosystem. They can be used, for example, as margin for unified accounts and are compatible with core product lines such as grid trading, copy trading systems, and staking/lending.Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget, previously proposed the "10% Vision": Currently, tokenized stocks represent only 0.1% of the $125 trillion global stock market. She predicts this proportion will rise to nearly 10% by 2030. Reality is built on this trend. In its initial phase, it will focus on US stocks, and will later expand asset classes, driving the extension of Bitget's UEX strategy into a broader access layer for global financial assets.
According to CoinPost, Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) Digital Society Promotion Headquarters’ “Next-Generation AI & On-Chain Finance Vision Project Team” released a policy proposal on May 19, advocating the integration of AI and blockchain to automate and enable 24/7 operation of decision-making, financing, and asset management—and designating finance as the “18th Growth Investment Sector.” Specific measures proposed in the document include: advancing tokenization of demand deposits at the Bank of Japan (including wholesale CBDC), with conceptual frameworks to be finalized by year-end; joint issuance of a stablecoin by Japan’s three major banks, targeting the launch of live operations by March next year; and promoting on-chain tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs), such as accounts receivable and real estate. At the international cooperation level, the proposal calls for establishing an “AI & On-Chain Finance Asia Policy Dialogue Framework” and advancing cross-border settlements using yen-denominated stablecoins, thereby realizing the “Global SC Corridor Vision.”
According to GlobeNewswire, Fere AI, an AI-powered digital asset trading agent platform, has announced the completion of a $1.3 million funding round led by Ethereal Ventures, with participation from Galaxy Vision Hill and Kosmos Ventures. The platform supports cross-chain networks including Ethereum, Solana, and Base, enabling users to describe their trading objectives in natural language—AI agents then execute the trades. The new funds will be used to accelerate platform feature development and optimize trading execution strategies.
Bitget has launched a futures trading leaderboard campaign, running from April 20 to April 27. During the campaign period, the first 5,000 registered users will receive random rewards of 1–5 USDT each. The campaign comprises three components: a new-user individual contest, an all-user individual contest, and a tiered trading-volume reward program. In the new-user individual contest, participants are ranked by their total futures trading volume; the top-ranked user (Top 1) wins 3,000 USDT. Similarly, the all-user individual contest ranks participants by futures trading volume, with the Top 1 winner receiving an Apple Vision Pro. Additionally, users who reach specific cumulative trading-volume thresholds can claim extra USDT rewards. Full campaign rules are published on Bitget’s official platform. Eligible users must click the “Join Now” button to complete registration in order to participate.
Circle has unveiled its 2026 vision for the development of internet finance systems, outlining a strategic focus on building cross-chain interoperability infrastructure, liquidity orchestration capabilities, and institutional-grade asset issuance frameworks to enable efficient value flow across multi-chain ecosystems. Regarding cross-chain infrastructure, Circle stated that it will introduce features such as “Fast Transfer” in the future—enabling sub-second settlement without waiting for source-chain finality—to enhance capital efficiency. At the asset expansion level, the Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) will expand beyond USDC to support additional assets—including EURC, USYC, and cirBTC—and facilitate the issuance and circulation of real-world assets (RWAs) across multiple chains. Additionally, Circle is advancing cross-chain process coordination by offering tools such as Bridge Kit, Deposit Kit, Fee Service, and Workflows—streamlining multi-chain operations into “one-click” cross-chain interactions, reducing development complexity, and improving user experience.
During a Space livestream today themed “The Underlying Financial Infrastructure of the AI Agent Era: B.AI Officially Launches,” Justin Sun stated: In the future, national strength will no longer be measured by traditional GDP but by annual token consumption. Blockchain empowers AI with independent accounts and payment capabilities—transforming AI from a mere “tool” into a “digital lifeform” endowed with economic rights. In the imminent Agent era, individuals can drive countless “digital lobsters” to close the loop—from code to results—achieving geometric growth in productivity. This means B.AI is dedicated to building the foundational economic engine for the AGI era. It not only grants AI economic sovereignty through independent settlement but also lowers the barrier to innovation via an open-source ecosystem—making the emergence of “companies” possible. When AI can deliver instant feedback to provide individuals with a sense of security—and global settlement becomes instantaneous—humanity will truly achieve comprehensive liberation of productivity.
