Web3 wallet Holdstation introduces AI agent platform A(i)gentFi. The platform aims to create, manage and monetize AI agents on the ZKsync network.
In a blog post published on December 12, ZKsync-based DeFi wallet Holdstation announced its plans to bring more artificial intelligence agents into the blockchain with the launch of its new AI agent hub A(i)gentFi and a grant of $2 million aimed at accelerating AI innovation in the blockchain.
The company described A(i)gentFi as a “one-stop shop on ZKsync dedicated to the creation and development of AI agents.” AI agents are AI-powered entities that can perform complex tasks such as trading, analyzing markets, and creating content. They operate autonomously, without any human intervention.
According to the blog post, A(i)gentFi wants to position itself as the “agent of all AI agents.” The platform claimed to prioritize real-world applications such as DeFi automation, yield farming, and tokenized AI ownership.
