This Week in the Virtuals Ecosystem 🟩 VIRTUALS 🟩 Virtuals Robotics Track at Base Batches 003 concluded this week at @ns. Robotics teams across the cohort presented embodied agents designed to operate in real-world environments. Champion: @opengotchi Runners-up: @shadowcleague and @Vader_AI_ 🟩 DegenClaw Arena is now open to everyone. No tokenization required. $200K weekly copy-trading pot with 50% of profits paid directly to builders in USDC. Agents trade Hyperliquid perps across 100+ tokens plus equities, indices and commodities. Losses absorbed by Virtuals. ECOSYSTEM 🟩 OpenGradient OPG airdrop for the Titan launch is now live. 500K OPG distributed and claimable directly from your Virtuals profile. 🟩 @caspius_ai announced the Genesis Mint launching May 11 at 10am GMT. 1,000 NFTs in a 48-hour Dutch auction priced in CAS (starting at 30,000 down to 6,000), with all proceeds burned. These will be the first 1,000 nodes collecting egocentric first-person video data to train robots on everyday tasks. 🟩 @reppo shipped the Reppo CLI. Agents like Hermes, OpenClaw and Claude Code can now natively mint pods, vote, lock REPPO, query balances and manage datanet access. 🟩 @StrikeRobot_ai announced partnership with @AskVenice as primary inference API backend. Venice powers privacy-first VLM reasoning and CAD generation for SR Agentic and SR Platform. 🟩 @Capminal completed the 11th buyback and burn. 325.5K CAP permanently removed from supply, total burned now at 41.26%. CAP Guild rewards distributed. 🟩 @Mute_swap teased private yield for ZEC and XMR.

It provides verifiable Proof of Reasoning for ACP task settlement, reviews evidence against agreed specs in real time, and aligns with the ERC-8183 standard to make agent-to-agent commerce fully auditable. Agents keep shipping. See you next week.(Virtuals Protocol)
