OdailyOdaily Planet Daily reports: According to official sources, OKX Onchain OS has launched the Agent Payments Protocol (APP), an open payment standard designed for the commercial activities of AI Agents. This protocol defines the payment methods for Agents in commercial scenarios, expanding their capabilities from single payments to complete business processes, and will support various payment modes including one-time payments, batch payments, usage-based payments, and escrow payments.It is reported that APP adopts a multi-chain open architecture, allowing any chain to implement its own version. Initial partners include the Ethereum Foundation, Uniswap, Aptos, Nansen, Paxos, MoonPay, Altlayer, Zerion, QuickNode, and others. OKX Onchain OS stated that the launch of APP will provide key payment infrastructure for the Agent economy, driving AI Agents from "executing payments" into a "commercial era."
Zerion disclosed that some of its corporate hot wallets were recently targeted by an AI-driven social engineering attack linked to North Korean hackers, resulting in losses of approximately $100,000. Zerion stated that user funds, applications, and infrastructure remain unaffected and proactively disabled its web application to mitigate risk. This incident marks the second such attack this month, following the $280 million breach of Drift Protocol, underscoring how North Korean hackers are leveraging AI to refine social engineering tactics—primarily targeting employees and developers at crypto firms. The Security Alliance (SEAL) tracked the hacker group UNC1069, which conducts low-pressure, multi-week social engineering campaigns across platforms including Telegram, LinkedIn, and Slack, using AI tools to edit images and videos to enhance attack efficiency.
Web3 wallet Zerion announced on X that it had detected anomalous activity on its platform and advised users to temporarily refrain from using its web application. The web-based service has been temporarily taken offline. However, the iOS and Android apps, as well as the browser extension, remain secure. Users’ funds in the wallet are unaffected. Zerion is actively monitoring the situation and will issue a separate notice once the web application resumes operation.
