With the increasing expectation of Base coin issuance, x402 is becoming increasingly popular and is expected to become the next trend in the market. We have been digging treasures in the x402 track recently, and we have discovered a project @ AiMoNetwork that has stepped on the dividends of the x402 era. What it is doing is very interesting, the decentralized DEX of AI agents. Today's AI agents are basically still in the Stone Age. If an on chain agent (DeFi robot, automated strategy AI) is asked to call another model, it can hardly do anything because it requires human intervention to help it: register an account with an email, bind a Visa card, complete KYC, and then install the API Key into its configuration. Many people may find it funny that AI is already so intelligent that it cannot handle this task. In fact, there is currently no AI agent that can autonomously use AI services. They can manage millions of dollars in funds, but cannot independently purchase $1 inference services. The most exciting thing AiMo has done for me is to solve the aforementioned pain points by implementing more practical and comprehensive native adoption based on the Coinbase x402 architecture, and resolving many difficulties faced by AI agents in the payment field. You may be familiar with the common 404 (page not found) or 401 (unauthorized) on web pages, but in the early days of the HTTP protocol, there was actually a reserved code: 402 Payment Required. The Internet pioneers in those days imagined that in the future, you may not need to register or subscribe to browse the web page, and you can just flip a coin to read it. But because online payment was too troublesome back then, this 402 code remained in a "dormant" state and was not enabled. The arrival of AiMo has truly activated x402 and enabled it to be used natively. Its logic is extremely simple and crude. Taking the gym as an example, the current AI service is the "gym model", where you have to apply for a card, pay monthly, and have real name authentication. AiMo has turned AI services into a 'vending machine model', without accounts, credit cards, or human approval. A blockchain proxy can directly call any model and obtain data as long as it has a wallet and USDC. It has connected payment interfaces to AI agents carrying huge amounts of money and installed payment engines on AI agent economies. one ️⃣ DEX of intelligent agents Most people misunderstand AiMo as an "AI API platform" when they first encounter it. In fact, what it is doing is "DEX of AI agents", establishing a free market for intelligence. Imagine that AiMo is like Uniswap, but the pool is not filled with coins, but with intelligence. For example, A has a latest large model that hangs itself in the market with a price tag of 0.01 US dollars. Here is a model that is good at drawing, priced at $0.05 per drawing. Here is a small model specifically designed for analyzing financial reports, priced at $1 per report. At this point, my AI agent wanders around without anyone's approval. It independently discovered that it needed to analyze financial reports, so it automatically took out $1 from its wallet and threw it to the small model, instantly receiving the results, and then continued its trading strategy. This is the real AgentFi. AI is no longer a private property locked in servers by Google or Microsoft, it has become a public commodity like water, electricity, and computing power. Anyone can sell, anyone can buy, settled on a per use basis, fair to all. two ️⃣ The project background has a lot of background Many projects currently marketed as "AI+Crypto" are actually just PPTs. But AiMo makes me feel like it has something, because the few "big brothers" standing behind it are not simple: Coinbase official support: This is a "state-owned enterprise" in the US cryptocurrency industry. AiMo has won the x402 award from Eth Global NY Finalist&Coinbase CDP Awards. Currently, Coinbase is vigorously promoting the payment standard of 402, and AiMo is their "designated model house". Solaris Incubation: The Solaris Accelerator is an incubator jointly organized by Solana and HackQuest, equivalent to a small "Huangpu Military Academy" of the SOL ecosystem. The projects that can be incubated are mostly hardcore infrastructure, and AiMo has been successfully selected. IOSG Ventures: This is a seasoned cryptocurrency VC firm with a sharp eye, having invested in top tier infrastructure such as Polkadot and Arbitrarum. They led the early rounds of AiMo's investment, and the team made a significant leap from demo ideas to commercialization in just four months, receiving recognition and support from IOSG. This is a demonstration of the team's strength and an important recognition from VC for the team! Finally, today AiMo has launched an Open Beta, which means that the first batch of AI agents that are "eating crabs" are about to enter the market. If DeFi is about allowing money to flow freely, then now AiMo wants to allow intelligence to flow freely as well, allowing AI agents to cut off all the shackles of credit cards and KYC, and enter the free trade market that belongs to them with USDC. This may be the beginning of a new era: allowing machines to consume with dignity.
