JUST IN: Stripe now settles USDC natively on Solana. Instant, gasless payout rails baked into smart contracts. It's not crypto bolted onto TradFi—it’s programmable money meeting global UX. Which fintech app rides this stream first? https://t.co/yRNYDDYroL

Just wrapped up a deep dive on @openmind_agi and man, their OM1 runtime is quietly becoming the backbone for scalable robotics. What stands out is how it runs seamless across sim and physical worlds no clunky handoffs, just one consistent "mind" learning in both. That means robots probe environments, adapt behaviors, and iterate without the usual data bottlenecks that kill projects early. They just locked in 3rd place at the Nebius Robotics & Physical AI Awards $50k prize plus NVIDIA-accelerated training to juice up fleet-wide cognition. Add Pantera Capital leading their funding round for OM1 + FABRIC, and you've got an open OS that's hardware-agnostic, syncing robots for schools, homes, warehouses. But the real kicker? Teaming with Circle to wire USDC into agents via x402 protocol. Now machines settle payments onchain in real-time, no banks, turning embodied AI into economic players. Think: robots coordinating tasks, verifying data, handling value transfers autonomously. FABRIC adds the trust layer machine IDs, behavior logs, enforceable rules so onchain agents can actually manage physical fleets. OM1: Unified runtime for sensors to world state FABRIC: Decentralized identity + settlement USDC integration: Instant crypto rails for hardware This isn't hype; it's the flywheel for a robot economy where humans loop in for intuition but machines run the ops. @openmind_agi is positioning robotics as web3 natives, not side projects. If physical AI is the next frontier, they're already building the rails watch Q1 2026 explode #OpenMind $Robots $AI

OpenMind just locked in third place at the Nebius Robotics and Physical AI Awards, walking away with $50k to supercharge their OM1 robot brain. That's not just a pat on the back it's validation from NVIDIA-backed judges at the Computer History Museum, right in the heart of Silicon Valley where physical AI dreams go to live or die. What hits different here is how OpenMind turns that win into real momentum. OM1 isn't some siloed demo; it's an open operating system letting robots think, learn, and sync across fleets without the usual hardware headaches. Throw in Pantera Capital's funding round and fresh ties to Circle for USDC payments, NEAR for privacy compute, Virtuals for agent coordination, and Unitree for hardware suddenly you've got robots plugged straight into the onchain economy. I've been tracking this since their sim-to-real transfers started scaling training for thousands of units, and it's wild how they're making embodied AI feel inevitable. No more waiting on clunky, closed systems; this is the stack that lets agents command physical fleets with verifiable trust via FABRIC. Physical AI's acceleration phase is no joke, and @openmind_ag i is stacking the wins to lead it. If robotics hits mainstream in Q1 2026 like the hype says, OpenMind owns the coordination layer everyone else will chase.

over 30 more to go lmao https://t.co/1a1RU5vDwv

The @brevis_zk mainnet launch seems closer, they has earlier launched the ProverNet Mainnet Beta which indicates mainnet is coming soon ProverNet is a decentralized marketplace with a network of provers that compete to settle apps in need of zk-proofs. Proving tasks are distributed through a continuous auction mechanism, this way provers can compete to deliver the most efficient proof generation for apps. Payments for every completed proving jobs are settled in USDC. The network also supports full prover registration and automated job matching, so new provers can easily join in. Staking and payments using the BREV token, will be included at mainnet launch to enhance the network security across the proving ecosystem.

Spent 45 minutes on @wardenprotocol spinning up a tiny agent LangGraph flow → cloud deploy → agent hub no ui, no nonsense multi‑chain runtime, full audit trail, id isolation feels like the first real “app store for ai agents” moment $1M builder pool is just the starter gun #AIagents #onchain
