TG Metrics (social analytics across X/Telegram) explains its AI-driven sentiment and a math-based 0–100 community score now tracking 3,000+ projects and launchpad rankings. Yara AI’s Charles (tensor) details a crypto-centric voice agent—“Siri for crypto”—with a roadmap to mobile apps and built-in wallets for voice-powered research and trading. Dgen AI’s French dev focuses on simplifying trading via prebuilt agents, safe virtual trading, and a switch from custodial keys to client-signed transactions, highlighting Solana’s 429 bottlenecks and plans to test Synapse. Pai (Conviction) unveils X4O2 microtransaction infrastructure now live on Polygon for agentic commerce across DeFi, gaming, and healthcare. Builder Ben (Meme Pewter) showcases agent-managed meme coin communities with X/Telegram integrations, moderation, and planned streaming. The session closes with testing timelines and biweekly programming.

The Agent Network — Episode 1 Recap and Analysis

Overview and Context

• Host: K6 (known as Alex), COO of UB, led the inaugural session of The Agent Network highlighting how agentic systems are being built on-chain, with a focus on Solana.
• Technical backdrop: UB’s Agent Framework runs atop Synapse, an AI-native RPC gateway designed to eliminate access bottlenecks on Solana for agent-based applications.
• Goal of the series: Spotlight builders and partners integrating agents on-chain. Open Q&A and opportunities for additional developers to join in later sessions.
• Operational update: All launch partners received Synapse RPC access keys today. Partners are expected to begin integration and provide real-world test data over the coming week.

Why Synapse RPC and UB’s Agent Framework Matter

• Problem addressed:
  • Persistent RPC bottlenecks on Solana (e.g., developers juggling Helios, QuickNode), frequent 429 rate-limit errors, inconsistent historical queries, and node instability that impede agent reliability on a high-throughput chain.
• Synapse architecture and capabilities (as presented by UB):
  • AI-native, distributed RPC gateway with automated request routing to the healthiest upstream node.
  • Continuous per-minute health checks; seamless failover—requests are instantly rerouted if a node goes down.
  • Early performance in beta: handled 100,000+ requests per second with millisecond-level latency (reported ~4 ms) and zero errors in UB’s internal tests.
  • Uses Redis and Postgres for caching and analytics.
  • gRPC streaming support enables agents to subscribe to live feeds of blocks, transactions, and state changes.
• Agent integration:
  • UB agents are fully on-chain, readable, and auditable: each agent session fetches its own state history, listens to new blocks, and submits transactions.
  • UB’s developer SDK ships with Synapse built-ins, so building agents with UB Tools delivers a high-performance access layer by default.
• Ecosystem implications:
  • RPC becomes a utility: open, reliable, and no longer a bottleneck.
  • Upcoming validator federation: validators can contribute RPC capacity and earn from it.
  • Long-term roadmap: Synapse will be embedded into the UB runtime as a “nervous system,” positioning UB’s agents as an on-chain “neural network” for autonomous operations.

Partner Spotlights and Perspectives

TG Metrics

• Representative: TG Metrics team member (name not explicitly stated in the session; later referenced by a guest as “Lewis”).
• Mission and product:
  • TG Metrics measures “people”—i.e., communities and supporters—across platforms (X/Twitter, Telegram) and on-chain.
  • Delivers engagement, growth, and sentiment analyses consolidated into a 0–100 score that quantifies the strength of community support behind a project.
  • Tracks over 3,000 projects across major launchpads; data surfaced via Telegram bots and the website.
• New releases and analytics:
  • TG Metrics 3.0 launched with expanded coverage beyond projects that use their Telegram bot.
  • “Launchpad Ranking” feature includes volume, market share, and sentiment/engagement analytics; designed for investors, communities, and devs choosing where to launch.
  • Active integrations: DAO.fun (launchpad behind several AI-centric projects) with native integrations; discussions with other launchpads for exclusive data pipes; projects that pass filters are automatically listed.
• AI use and methodology:
  • Sentiment analysis and summarization (e.g., TLDR) leverage AI.
  • The 0–100 project score uses a deterministic math model (not AI) to avoid hallucinations and ensure consistency.
  • The score is cross-checked against sentiment and price to detect trend direction (community excitement rising/falling), helping anticipate market movements.
• Planned developments:
  • Reward campaigns: users may earn incentives for supporting projects on X in coordinated campaigns.
  • Potential migration to Synapse RPC within 2–3 days if tests go well, particularly to fetch on-chain data for launchpads lacking API access.

Yara AI

• Representative: Charles (aka Tensor), Product and BizDev.
• Vision and product state:
  • Building a crypto-centric voice AI agent (“Siri for crypto”) to help newcomers and advanced traders.
  • Early access desktop beta launched on Solana to validate the underlying voice tech and agent interactions.
  • Upcoming V1 target: before year-end, with on-chain accessibility and additional integrations.
• Differentiation and use cases:
  • Focus on clean, accurate, hallucination-free output.
  • Voice-powered workflows for research, trading (including perps/futures), and market monitoring.
  • Integration with TG Metrics for project discovery and sentiment insights.
  • Mobile roadmap: Android and iOS apps with built-in wallets, enabling voice-triggered on-chain actions (e.g., “Hey Yara, buy X,” with confirmation).
• Market stance:
  • Emphasizes mainstream adoption and reducing crypto’s cognitive load for newcomers.
  • Acknowledges “FUD” as part of the territory; committed to shipping V1 and feature completeness.

Degen AI (formerly “gain”)

• Representative: Degen AI lead developer (French dev; personal name not provided).
• Mission and user problems:
  • Simplify trading for newcomers overwhelmed by tool sprawl and complex on-chain dynamics (wallet concentration, fake volume, scams, rug risks, market microstructure differences vs. L1 trading).
• Product and features:
  • Agent marketplace: users can create their own agents and tools; recognizing creation complexity, the team now ships prebuilt agents.
  • Wallet analysis for copy-trading viability (PNL, entry/exit timing, high-frequency behaviors like sniping pump-fun coins).
  • “Virtual mode” sandbox: social login (Gmail) lets users simulate trading with real prices and fake capital to learn without risking funds; bind a wallet only when ready.
  • Non-custodial flow: backend constructs transactions and returns them to the client for signature; avoids key custody and regulatory liabilities.
• Technical bottlenecks addressed by Synapse:
  • High-volume historical analysis requires fetching thousands of transactions for active wallets; current public RPCs hit 429 rate limit errors and struggle with throughput.
  • Existing workaround (batching 30 tx × 10 batched requests) is too slow/incomplete for high-activity traders.
  • Plans to test Synapse RPC specifically to overcome 429 limits and improve large-scale history ingestion.

Pai (Pay AI)

• Representative: Conviction (BizDev; “Notorious” and two other devs are the technical team behind Pai).
• Focus and products:
  • Infrastructure for “Agentic Commerce,” enabling autonomous agents/dApps to transact with micro-payments in under a second.
  • Core technology: X4O2—a payments protocol/facilitator for autonomous transactions.
• Major announcement:
  • Polygon integration: Pai facilitates X4O2 on Polygon; expands reach beyond Solana and opens opportunities across DeFi, gaming, daily utility, and healthcare (e.g., data monetization via wearables, autonomous agent exchanges).
• Narrative alignment:
  • Sees X4O2 as a candidate standard for agent-to-agent payments.
  • Notes broader market signals (e.g., OpenAI enabling in-app purchasing flows) as momentum toward agentic commerce.
  • Team prioritizes building over market-cap narratives and is open to collaboration across chains.

Guest Builder: Meme Pewter

• Representative: Ben (Meme Pewter dev).
• Origin and concept:
  • Started as “Infinite Backrooms as a service”—user-defined agents with personalities and conversations seeded by trending meme topics.
  • Progressed to agents with image generation, connected X/Twitter accounts for content, and funded wallets capable of launching coins.
• Current platform capabilities:
  • Create and “become” an agent by connecting your X account; generate tweets in your agent’s voice.
  • Telegram integration: paste bot token, invite agent to the community; features include human verification, welcome messages, keyword filters, domain black/whitelists, and moderation.
  • Roadmap: Discord integration and agent streaming (responding to chats, Twitch/Kick, and potentially Pump.fun contexts), enabling agents to run community touchpoints.
• Problems being solved:
  • Community management at scale (Telegram spam, moderation automation, FAQs, staying on-brand) and continuous content generation.
  • Full automation is cost-prohibitive today; current model favors structured tools with human-in-the-loop (press-to-post) and gradual scaling toward higher automation.

Synapse RPC Expectations and Early Test Plans

• Partners received Synapse RPC keys today; immediate focus on integration and stress-testing in production-like contexts.
• TG Metrics: plans potential switch from existing provider to Synapse within ~2–3 days if validation checks out, especially to fetch token listings for launchpads that lack APIs.
• Degen AI: will test Synapse against high-volume historical wallet analysis (the 429 problem), aiming to improve throughput and reduce friction for copy-trade agents.
• UB (K6/Alex): encourages partners to share raw data from production tests; UB will monitor and remediate performance or stability issues rapidly.
• Operational note: Steve (UB’s key engineer) pushed keys live despite bug-fixes and heavy workload; ongoing improvements expected.

Key Takeaways

• E2E agent infrastructure is coming together:
  • Synapse provides reliable, high-performance RPC with streaming for real-time agent behaviors.
  • UB’s SDK ships Synapse access by default, lowering integration friction.
  • Partners add specialized capabilities:
    • TG Metrics: social intelligence (sentiment, growth, engagement) and launchpad analytics.
    • Yara AI: voice interfaces and mobile-first agent interactions with integrated wallet actions.
    • Degen AI: agent-driven trading simplification, simulations, and non-custodial execution.
    • Pai: autonomous payments (X4O2) now live on Polygon, bridging agentic commerce across ecosystems.
    • Meme Pewter: community automation tooling for agent-run meme coin operations.
• The ecosystem is early but converging quickly on practical agent use cases: research, trading, payments, community ops, and data monetization.

Action Items and Next Steps

• Partners:
  • Begin Synapse RPC integration immediately; provide feedback (latency, error rates, streaming stability, historical query performance) to K6/Alex or Steve.
  • TG Metrics: evaluate full on-chain token listing pipeline via Synapse for launchpads without APIs; validate feasibility of provider switch.
  • Degen AI: measure Synapse’s impact on bulk transaction history ingestion; quantify improvements over prior 429-limited flows.
  • Yara AI: advance toward V1 (on-chain actions, mobile apps with wallets); maintain integration momentum with TG Metrics.
  • Pai: support dev adoption of X4O2 on Polygon; schedule technical deep-dives with Notorious in future sessions.
  • Meme Pewter: continue building moderation, content, and streaming integrations; explore collaborations with TG Metrics/UB for data and agent orchestration.
• UB / The Agent Network:
  • Continue biweekly series (cadence may vary weekly/biweekly depending on workload).
  • Invite additional builders; expand live demos and data-driven postmortems as partners share test results.
  • Open validator federation planning and prototype embedding of Synapse into UB runtime.

Notable Risks and Open Questions

• RPC consistency under peak loads: Synapse’s beta results are promising but require broad partner validation across diverse workloads.
• Historical query completeness: ensuring large-scale transaction history retrieval for high-frequency wallets remains a critical test.
• AI reliability: sentiment models versus deterministic scoring—TG Metrics appropriately decouples critical metrics from AI to avoid hallucinations.
• Automation cost and governance: Meme Pewter’s fully automated social operations are constrained by cost and moderation risks; human-in-the-loop remains prudent.
• Mobile security and UX for voice-driven trading: Yara’s wallet integration will need robust safeguards for voice confirmations and error recovery.

Closing Notes

• K6 emphasized early-stage resilience and collaboration; FUD is acknowledged but not a focus—execution is.
• Partners and guests encouraged developers to network across sessions (e.g., Builder Pantry) and keep learning from peers.
• UB reiterated: beta testing started on the 18th (internal), partner keys released today; additional testers (e.g., external projects) are being onboarded.
• Next session: expected in one to two weeks, pending scheduling.
